A couple of recent finds brought by PD's Hot Shop in Vancouver, BC.
First - An old 80s Alva build with practically ever possible rail and lapper configuration possible. It's hard to contemplate if the board would be scarier or safer for all around coping use. Fakie rocks sliding into oblivion? Would be fascinating to watch someone fully dial it in on a wide mini ramp or something, making full use of the 'anti-hang-up' technology slip sliding around everywhere.
Second - The scarcer 'Skate Safe' graphic on the infamous Skull Skates Diehard shape. The main image taken from the 'Skate Safe!' Thrasher ad from the mid 80s. Definitely a cult cult score. Note how the plastics theme continues with this deck even featuring the tail rails on top of everything else.
