I agree Nick, I vacilate back and forth. They used to all hang in my office and it was worth keeping, but I sold both the business and the office and now is not the time to be buying commercial property. So they hang in our holiday home, but we occasionally Air BnB that and I'm terrified one day I w...

Did Steve post something up about selling a Manx board, or am I imagining things?

Still getting pretty good prices Steve. I was contemplating putting my entire BB collection up, not sure yet. Would rather it went as a full collection.

There are other priorities right now.

Glen you've to 1 or 2 of those JH boards?

Paul Philips made a identical replica of those speed boards if you're interested. He may still have one, not sure. They were perfect replica.

Anyone know of a Henderson mkII?

I'm ramping up the effort to find one.

BTW - someone has offered me Sinclair's rider if you want it I will connect. PF9s, it has the checkerboard bottom. Wants about GBP1k

Steve, Sims on the Sinclair, and uber rare Sims Giant Slaloms (the only Sims wheel with no branding on it).

You mean the translucent Zephyr? Sadly, it's close enough red for me. Like you say Steve, you'll only sell it anyway and it would be lost in some storage cupboard there.

These are the jelly moulds

On the hunt for a Henderson II if anyone has one, is interested or knows of one, let me know.

Pretty much the only BB I really want, there's a few but they are mostly odd balls.

Great pics AW - I can't even remember Max Kirsten, where did he fit in again? Sablosky turned into a bit of a flaker me thinks. I think skating was probably the pinnacle of his life. We're all meeting for a beer next time I'm over, either later this year or early next. Unless you want to come to Oz....

Yep. So few people know that, I could pass it off as a genuine and get $1k+ for it. All the wheels n trucks are legit.

I saw one recently went for $1.8k, passed off as an OG Zephyr. Nuts.

The JA on the far left is a signed. Very lovely.

In memory of London Calling.

Anybody go?

I extended the family and reluctantly included another Zephyr.

The early ones.

Steve, just seen your BB = looks like a Comp II not a Freestyle?

You should keep it for posterity. Did that Kicktail sell for ridiculous money?

how do I post pictures up, can't remember - think I have to a cloud repository. Will dropbox do?

Yeah I wouldn't mind a set of 88s atm. I have a Comp II I want to set up.
