Vintage 1970s skateboard forum

from 1978 , same as the mark baker signature ones

Free bird never heard of these

I nearly bought some once but didn’t , wouldn’t mind some to put on a benjy at some point , Manx yes they advertised heavily bitd they were in most skateboard mags yours is first one I’ve actually seen outside an advert

Haha yes a bit risqué at the time especially when you think the average reader age was 13

Olympic

Skuffers based on Warrington

A couple of more Benjyboard adverts

These were the uks attempt at making a similar truck to the gullwing split axles and were a nice enough truck but weren’t a great seller so nowadays they are quite collectible , they were black eco y coated which gave them quite a modern mean look and were made in Surrey CB9BBDAB-9863-4BD8-9A3B-54D5...

Nice setup never seen that brand before cool name

Yes it’s a nice made board , I bought it 4 years ago off eBay only opened box other day

Yes I suspect this is a homemade deck

Not sure what this one is it’s similar to a benjy but wrong shape but wheel wells are same as white lightning , also similar to a Thompson but bands of wood are a lot wide the stripes sort of speak 8984700D-8E70-4CA9-AA36-0E08FF624B50.jpeg 21E968CB-2723-421D-BC25-18C47BF65C72.jpeg 435519CC-8F3C-499F...
