Description: Founded in 1963, Skyway Recreation is without question one of the original innovators in BMX racing, and aside from their composite wheels, they're probably best remembered for producing one of the first BMX freestyle teams. The team toured seemingly non-stop, putting on expositions and demos at just about every bike shop and shopping mall in America (and beyond), all in promotion of their cutting edge freestyle products and complete bikes.

Description: Chuck Robinson started Robinson Racing in the mid-'70s. He had worked for DG, Webco, and LRV, among others and decided to start his own line of BMX bikes after working to build the brands he worked for. Chuck always had his bikes fabricated by third-party sources and was underfunded, so he was never able to run consistent advertisements in the magazines. He did what he could with the budget he had and was a big promoter of BMX racing and is credited for his role in taking the sport to new levels. In the early days, he made smaller frames for the younger kids and then went into the production of larger bikes.
