I only bought it because I remember them being in Skateboard! Mag ,turns out they were a Benjy White Lightening rival

i love the quicktail, one for the arabs,i dont think you would be able to say that nowadays i never realised they were that expensive

Yeah they are legit, but are a tribute rather than something that existed back in the day, Shogo definitely rode for Kryptonics and I am sure Jay did to, All those guys just took $$ and then moved on to the next Product

yeah i know they werent like that originally,i meant id not seen any reissues like it so didnt know if someone just stuck the lettering on,seems strange that kryptonic would only make a handful of sets dont you think? looks like someone wanted them,sold for over £400

whats going on with this seller? hes had the same stuff on ebay for probably a yr or more now with no chance of anyone paying those prices and no price reductions so whats the point? i just dont get it? https://www.ebay.com/itm/113781109727?h ... SwCildAZMK

bit after my time this one, but what a great price,imagine if it had been mint! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RARE-VINTAGE ... 7675.l2557

Use some of the 80s stuff is going for megabucks

i dont follow stuff from 80 onwards as i dont know much about it or the values,good to know the later scenes doing well though also

Anyone know the background on TRIMS skateboard London ? I have seen a few of their decks over the years but this is the first “wide” one which suggests they lasted in to 1979,
Don’t recall seeing ads for them in Skateboard! But I suppose if they were London based they maybe had a cult following like Slick Willies or Tradewinds
