Abracadabra Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 my first board came from k-mart and had plastic coated trucks. we were ghetto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAL Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Well, yeah. I had the plastic banana board and the kids in the neighborhood would take turns riding down the hill on our asses and see who could go the farthest. Years later i pulled it out for some video footage and did a double kickflip on it. It was cool. My first "pro board" was the Hosoi. I helped my mom plant a huge landscaped thing on the side of the house one summer to earn the money for it. It was cool. That was like, 1989.

tutleone Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Wow. I ride 7.5 Zoo York board with Venture lows and 52mm Ricta wheels. My homie has an old school Vision Gonz deck that I like to cruise around on. I remember my first board was a Hosoi Hammerhead. It was white. Then I got an SMA Natas deck. It was green. what size are ur feet, a damn 6? Thats a small board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
