In this episode we talk with freestyle jump legends Hank Amos, Scott Clack, and Mike Tolzmann about the glory days of freestyle jump in the 1980's and 1990's. We dive in to a whole host of topics such as training techniques, the pro tour, the progression of tricks, the insane distances, the sponsorships, their thoughts on freestyle today, and so much more.
