We just can't leave this one out.
And why would we?
It just doesn't get any Radder than RAD: The Movie. (1986.)
Back Flips? Check.
A ridiculously-cute young Lori Loughlin, of "Full House" sitcom fame, doing literally-impossible tricks on a BMX bike at a School Dance? Double Check.
Immortal lines like "Let's walk this sucker"? Triple-Check....
And a BMX Track christened "Hell-Track," which included a giant KIX Cereal bowl and spoon to ride through? Quadruple-Check.....for Rad-ness!
Throw in some fiesty amounts of historic Pipeline-Skatepark airborne-BMX aerial action, dished out by truly-Rad Legends-of-the-Sport Eddie Fiola, Brian Blyther, and Mike Dominguez.....and equal amounts of Flatland Shenanigans served up by equally Rad-tastic freestyle pros Martin Aparijo, R.L. Osborne, and Pat Romano....and clearly these were some Rad Times, Indeed.
Score a copy of this on VHS through eBay, or from your favorite Amazon re-seller.
So......what would be even Radder than RAD?
That's easy --- A DVD Version of RAD. One is rumored to be in the works.
'nuff said.
