This is for all skaters - from the sidewalk surfers to the modern day. If its got 4 wheels* , 2 trucks and a deck, its a skateboard. *see Lonnie Toft, master of the 8 wheeled skateboard. Much respect.

Need help finding an old skateboard, 1980s'ish

Hello all! Back in probably the late '80s, I had bought a skateboard from I think Kmart. It was weird in that the deck was plastic or composite, and the bottom was covered in aluminum. I believe it had molded in grip tape, or rather grip tape texture, and I remember either a dragon on the bottom, or some medieval theme. The board was black, and the bottom may have been gold. It was horrible, but I'd love to just see another one just to remember what the hell it was. So far, I haven't been able to find anything similar.

Anyone remember anything like this?

Hey there, I'm trying to find a value for this deck, a sweet OG 1988 Natas, complete with Schmitt Stix rails and tail guard ;) I'm not a collector, just a middle aged guy cleaning out the closet at his parents' house. I've gotten wildly different estimates in a couple of places—does anyone have an idea of the value? Thanks!

Since someone mentioned their Lance Mountain here's a board I found for sale recently... Asking price. $1600 Australian bananas (dollars). That's over $1k of those US Bucks..

Magnum Skateboards?

I have a vintage Magnum skateboard from when I was a kid. Its in mint condition and was barely used. I remember saving my money to buy it. After buying it I hated it, it rode way too hard for the street so it got put to the side. I even have the wrench it came with.

Anyone have any info?

Hang or ride?

Santa Cruz Corey Obrien bought new in 1989. Bearings all shot and rusted up. Three wheels turn but one is quite stuck. Is there anything stopping me putting new bearings and riding it?! I would just be cruising around so not much force on the water and sun damaged deck!!

I stopped using it about 15 years ago when someone did a flip and the wheel/truck buckled. Got kids now who might enjoy it as well as myself.
