Bob Haro and his buddies would spend their "off-track" bike time riding their BMX bikes at Skateboard Heaven, a concrete skatepark, in San Diego, CA. In 1977, Haro moved to Torrance to work as a staff artist for BMX Action magazine. There, Haro would practice his "freestyle" moves on his free time which caught the attention of a young R.L. Osborn, son of BMX Action's publisher Bob Osborn. After a couple years of Bob and R.L. freestyling around Torrance, BMX Action started taking notice and ended up publishing a few how-to's. Back then, it wasn't called "freestyle". They just called it "trick riding".
In 1979, the "BMX Action Trick Team" was formed and their first public appearance was in February 1980 at the ABA Winter Nationals in Chandler, AZ. Organized "freestyle" was born.
In 1980, Bob Morales (founder of BME in 1977, which became "Dyno" in 1983) joined "Team Haro". In 1982 he founded the American Freestyle Association to organize freestyle events.
It's no coincidence that Haro was the first to produce a frame/forkset specifically for freestyle in 1983.
In 1984, Bob Osborn started up "Freestylin' Magazine", the first publication dedicated to freestyle BMX.
Bob haro invented the first freestyle BMX bike.
