(1988) GT Demo Tape

GT Demo Tape released in April 1988 and the follow-up to GTV. McGoo is your host his big screen debut. Producers, Unreel, added some really hot (and expensive) special effects. Comical at times but not "rollin' on the floor" type.
- First interview: Martin. Usual talk about travel and practice. KILLER effects. Martin shreds. Hot tricks.
- Dino next. Quote of video: "I like to motorcycle" Nervousness? Yup. Dino makes up for it with THE BEST slo-mo lookback in history, while a guitar geezes in the background. More custom effects.
- Then the Swatch wearing and totally tense Dr. Air. Highlights: Josh off cue. Josh doing ground with no pegs. Josh loftin'.
- Dave Voelker follows. He's the most easy goin', coolest, and calmest character in the entire vid -the most normal or regular guy, until it shows his abnormal airs and irregular variations. RAD!
- Brett Hernandez next, talking with stuffed up nose. More chick references by 'Goo. AWESOME footage of Pinky Squeaks.
- Scura comes on and GT forgot to add canned laughter. Scura out of control, doing the back stroke while scurfing,
- Then Fiola... This is the last time you'll get to see him in GT duds. Old Pipeline/King of the Skateparks footage. Classic? You bet. That's all ... cept for one of the all-time best crashes in years. We won't say anymore, just see the Demo tape for yourself.

Who the hell would down vote this 2 times? Without these guys and many others there wouldnt be bmx today. We would be on bikes with ape hangers and banana seats.

Probably one of these emo neo-bmx'ers who hate the world and think they have "invented" something that has been going on since the 70's.

Loved my second generation 87 Pro Performer. Wish Fiola remade those. This video takes me back to my teen years. Martin has that hair spray and Swatches on lock!

Seat post clamps had to be hella good back in the day.

[@JuniorPolancoLaCoalicion]

martin rules!

[@susancorgi]

at that year 1988 nobody would have thought the bmx industry was about to end its best era in 2 years. not even martin who sitting there talking about his tricks would know most riders will be out of jobs very soon.

Google image search this tape. The back cover of the VHS case says it was released in 1987.Also Eddie wasn't riding for GT by 1988.

[@OldSchoolBMXTV]

It was released in April 1998, the production (Filming) and all artwork and packing was done in 1987. It's not like today where you film, edit and upload within 2 hours.

[@jbw9999]

@@OldSchoolBMXTV Oh, thanks. Not saying I don't believe that, but is there proof somewhere?

88'... That was the year I got my 1st real bike. A 88 GT vertigo St. White with hot pink decals. I loved that bike. Rode it till I got my license.

[@saltybmxer6977]

The tracking is a little off. Probably from rewinding and watching the part four thousand times. SO RAD!

[@jasonmarshall7983]

GEEE TEEE

Love seeing these again.

[@swiftcee266]

I wonder how much money these companies made?....must of sold millions of bikes

[@OldSchoolBMXTV]

GT / Haro and only a couple others are still in business from the 80s. Many newer companies make / develop BMX / Street Bikes now

[@swiftcee266]

@@OldSchoolBMXTV ..I had a Craig Campbell Prolite...best selling freestyle frame and forks in the UK for a time. Loved that bike. Wish I kept it!
