I see, looks like the Logos deck was also made of birch ply, those dark glue lines and alternate ply directions give it away.
Arrow (another company from Wolverhampton) also used birch, I might have to start a new thread for that one!

I know of one other barracuda, different design though.
I think it was another offshoot of Skuda, like The Force, made at the same place in Norwich.

Sad times, though we live in hope!

Never seen photos of any surviving Logos boards, anyone have one to gawp at here?

*the fresh air decks I'm talking about!

Totally, the originals had a rocker with a kinda hook tail, no concave (obvs!), they were also pressed from three sheets of three ply birch, each one 4mm thick.
The remakes/reissues look like 7 ply maple?

Flat 12mm birch, boo.
