Ok here is your chance to own a totally unique as skated board, I grew up in Santa Cruz and even owned a skateboard company at one time, this skate was added to my collection 20 years ago when I was well ahead of my time and started collecting 80’s old school decks, on this deck you will find some old forgotten parts of skateboarding history, the blue curb hopper is original and so is the “rip grip” which based on the font I’m guessing was a NHS ( Santa Cruz and independent tru...ck companies parent company ) product. One thing that’s extremely rare is the Sims comp 2 offset wheels, these wheels are super wide and add significant width to the board taken from a Sims board I begged off of a friends dad. I have hardly even seen a set of these wheels and they really skate amazingly well. The set of independent trucks is matching and mounted on a pair of “cell block II “ risers which somehow got some spray paint dripped on them. ( doesn’t get any more authentic than that)
Also there There is also a hexagonal grip and at one point this board was drilled for some Ollie stopping tail protection which was probably never put on based on how skated it was. The Santa Cruz sticker on the top of the deck is period and original. This is a sort of rare deck since it was never drilled for any other sliders and was probably most definitely ridden on the snake at durby
This is not A delaminating mess you could actually skate this deck tomorrow ( you might add the missing screw back in )
If you could ask this board the stories it could tell this is a chance to own a skated piece of skateboarding history. check out the video on this board and the interview with Keith as he sits at durby where this board was skated. https://youtu.be/R6kpiQ-2P8c
I grew up skating in Santa Cruz and my Unkle was one of the 5 original NHS factory riders, who received the loan of one of the 5 pairs of the $5000 a pair independent suspension down hill racing trucks, which sadly he had to give back ;( Incase you didn’t know how independent got it’s name. I love skateboarding and may at some time list more of my collection in the coming days.
