When I stated skating in the early 80's I had the good fortune to hook up with some amazingly talented skaters who skated at Fort Monmouth, NJ. They were all Cherry Hill refugees, but kept the faith long after Cherry died.
These pic's are of Steve Herring. He was at one time sponsered by Walker but the only mention I have found on the web of Steve is at "Bruce Walker Profile":

Steve was incredible! He really lead the group of guys who skated together. His style was sooooooo smooth and seemed to be able to do everything.
Believe it or not the other guys who skated together included Jeff Hartsell and Jim Murphy - guys who both when on to skate for Alva.
Brad Constable also skated with the same group but I don't think he was ever sponsored.
These pic's are from a sesson around September 1984 in New Jersey. The other guys skating that day include Jim Murpy, Brad Constable, and Bruno Peeters, a skater from Belgium who I had met the past summer while in the Netherlands.
Anyway - enjoy the pics - I'll post some more of the other guys from the same session later.
Checkout that backside Ollie across the channel or the way high backside!!

And Brad Constable!
This guy had "style"!
Checkout the slick around the knee frontside - the blazing backside ollie over the channel (look close at his face between the legs) - The perfectly straight invert!
......................................Hot layback!

The skater from Belgium was Bruno Peeters.
We was sponsered by Schmitt Stix at the time. Last time I talked with him he was living in Maryland.
Here's some pics of Bruno...really was a sweet ramp...great condition...wide...with a channel....surrounded by shade trees!
