my wife, bless her heart, found out from a friend of mine that my second board i ever had was a santa cruz street creep. well, in our first year of marriage, she found me one for my birthday. got it hanging in the garage.
My friends and I named our motorcycle group Street Creeps in honor of that board. . .

Duane Peters is a ruler! he rode for Black Label. Dont know if he still rides for them, but you can check out his newest footage that I know of on the Black Label video called Black Out.
Anyone got any suggestions on a good first pool board? I been skating the long ones for a while, and I ready to get into actuall boardin. My daily driver is one of those Rat Fink madrid 46's. Handles mighty good, gummy tires, apec 9's.
Yep, been there for nearly seven years now...Good news: the wheels have come full circle(sorry, bad metaphor) and are bigger again. It got bad there for a while.
never even knew that model excisted. circle a duane, damn. that deck is in mint condit, could be worth a mint on ebay for all the nostalgia freaks and dogtown zboy bandwagoners. save it!
I got that board in Longbeach at the skate and surf show. The girl that worked at the Circle A booth invited me to stop by where they made the boards. Got to check out the place and she gave me that deck. I guess Duane was going to skate for them and changed his mind. I'm not sure if they even sold that deck, we couldn't get any more of them at the shop. Think I'm gonna hang on to it.
Kick...lemme know if you are into a trade.
Have some sweetness that may or may not be more up your alley.
Pool deck?
Hmmm...
What size ya like?
Big Pig, mid-school, new popsicle-ish wide deck, eighties style? How long?
There are a ton of cool new decks out that will do nicely.
I was making midsized pool decks with ill kongkave...but, had to put 'em on hold til the film is done.

Are any of you from the Dayton, OH area and know anything about Alien Workshop? Used to hear stories about how they got their name and how the company got started and was hoping that someone was familiar with the company. I don't know if they ever really got big on the left coast, but they sure were big in the no coast area! They were like a small conspiracy in Mid-Ohio region.
Man, you guys are bringing back big time memories! My first board was the blue Mike McGill that had the skull with the snake. Of course it had to have blue tracker trucks and PINK Slime Balls!! I think I maybe even had pink rails too! That board was SUPER heavy man!
My wife just threw away a Santa Cruz everslick prototype that was given to me as a kid. I skated the shit out of it but it was still in good shape. I could have killed that bitch!
I'm looking for a few board is anyone is looking to sell : Bill Tocco octopus board, a Ray Barbie board (public domain era), Kevin Staab (Pirate), and and of the Blind Powell parodys.....

Personally, I always perfered the Santa Cruz boards in the 80's. Don't ask why just did. The concave felt better to me

I loved that board! It was also heavy as hell, but once you lugged it up to a ledge, rail, etc.... board slides for miles! I forgot about that board! Good stuff!
I dont skate, but I teach shop to a bunch of kids who do. Seems I heard somewhere about "kits" for making your own boards, can anyone turn me on to those? That might be a cool project for my kids in class...
