WTB: Skateboard

[xrocket21]

Anyone of you washed up skaters have an old deck your willing to part with? My son has had a few boards and is getting better, he can Ollie! Started looking at legit, non toy boards and they are pretty pricey for a 9 year old. Anyone got anything collecting dust in a corner? Thanks!

may have you covered, will check. we've got 5 complete boards and a few decks in the garage that rarely get touched these days. if the boys will let one go, i'll post up. they're all good.

[xrocket21]

Perfect!!!! Thanks! If he sticks with it I don't mind dropping some money on a nice board someday, but you know how kids are.


Kinda funny, but finger boarding really taught him a lot, pretty sure it's how he learned to Ollie a real board

We would need a complete board, not just the deck

I have a fully built skateboard as well that is barely used. Used to be big time skater in my teens but once I got my drivers license, I stopped. Sorta got back into it in my mid 30s for a little bit.

Element deck
Independent trucks
Spitfire wheels
forget the brand of wheel bearings

boys were out of town, back now, but they don't want to give up any boards yet FYI, just got a sale email from The House, a few completes for cheap.

EDIT: Zumies has a sale going on as well

[xrocket21]

They are school shopping at the Portland mall today and will check out Zumiez, if they don't find anything Ill order that. He has no clue who the Ramones are, but he can just sticker bomb it.

.... He has no clue who the Ramones are, ...

Neither will any of his friends, so he can fake it and be the cool kid with the eclectic taste in music....get him a Black Flag t-shirt too

He was born in 2015 lol. I played Sedated for him and thought he would recognize it, but nope.

I have some old decks from when I worked for the company that owned DC. May have given away some to friends' kids but if you want a deck I can ship it out to you, just can't promise the graphics will be "cool" but for free.fiddy price should be right. Although the complete board you sent for $50 seems like a decent kit that's already good to go.

Sounds good to me, thanks!!! I would love that.

Couldn't pass up the deal on that $45 board so I got one for myself and my daughter. Had so many boards I had to make a board rack

[OneCheekRider]

oh man need to mail that one to you! Totally fell off my radar!

No worries, my collarbone is fucked, not doing any skating this year!

hah! that's awesome! yeah, on the collarbone comment ... i just read your other post, then this one, and it made me think about wiping out on a Lester Kasai (yes, still on Trackers) from the 80's that i had in the attic forever. when the first kid was born i was like, yeah, gonna coast this puppy down the driveway get a feel... fucking ate it. hahaa.

still have the Lester deck but it's mounted on the wall in my office now. have an Arbor Martillo (DDC) to pedal around if the kids are riding but never do these days. the One Wheels get the action.
