hahaha nice!!!

I had a pair of those handgrips on my Diamondback BMX waaay back when.
Won ALOT of races back then.

That just brought back alot of memories.

The 'shades' ad was pretty cool too.

Thanks for posting Jarred. :hurray:

There is a whole warehouse of stuff.. the amount of design and photography work Jim did himself is mind boggling... he was the only designer at Oakley from 1975 to 1991.... not an armchair CEO in any sense of the term that's for sure.

Ill scan some more in a bit.

Good to see he still holds true to this after all these years.

Heh heh heh.. good find. That whole purposelabs.com thing was me and Nick's attempt 5 or 6 years ago to convince a relatively unknown high speed machine-vision company the opportunity of taking their cameras and repackaging them to shooting 24fps and have a body that was friendly for cinematic applications.

It (kinda) worked.. www.visionresearch.com

Got a set of .5s on my loop tail Pk Ripper in the basement.... Wouldn't dare put AME's on my scarlet rig when I get it.... perhaps some mushrooms though...
