Here’s my Ben Liddell fresh air deck all original

I had one of these years ago you never see them for sale now

Ben with his 10 limited reissues he did

I had these two, Still have the one fully set up with Trackers and Alva flat backs it is missing it’s H

The other one I sold in eBay it had lots of little mini Fresh Air stickers on it

I bought mine on eBay for 90 quid I think my first one , sold it around 3 or 4 years ago I think I got 200 and odd maybe and tegretted flogging it and chanced on another recently , can’t be many left

Team, someone has offered me one of the 10 reissues Ben did a while back. It is NOS with a few storage marks.

I can get pricing and images if anyone here is interested lmk - not for me these days.

hiya michael i ended up with it , not got it yet but its the seventh one on that big pic showing the 10 lined up with ben

you got that for a great price,i thought there would have been 2 or 3 others bidding on it

I got the re edition fresh air deck today and thought I’d put them side by side the 1978 one is slightly longer , but very similar construction

Here’s Oakley Liddell on one of the re editions fresh air decks

i always assumed they were identical,wonder why they made them smaller, are they still the same thickness? you just need to set it up and head down the local park now

The old decks slightly thinner but only slightly remarkably similar , I wonder who made the 10 blanks for them

I believe Ben made them himself, but I could be wrong,

I’m considering selling to trading mine as pictured above.

I did think of bidding on the EBay one and swapping them out.

The remake looks to have more of a kick tail than the rocker of the original
