Definition of proper?
Cause I had one of those red fibreglass jobbies with the yellow wheels that I rode like a bride on the first night of the honeymoon.
I had a reflex full size board 'cause that's all my folks could afford at the time, used to take that everywhere, prahran, melton and then I bought a Pink Lance powell board with my paper round money.... Still have it but it's knackered... Then most favourite was a yellow schmidt stik, the one with the little nose riser. gee that was like riding elle macpherson... i loved that board....
moved out of home, probably had ten old skool nice sk8 boards, boxes of trucks and wheels, I used to work at a shop called cheapskates in prahran after school and on weekends, ..... moved around the country a fair bit, came home when ma & pa where moving to a smaller house, all that stuff, years of collecting, gone.... no one would admit to chucking it, but some dude down the dump would have struck a mini lotto that day........
Bitter??? not half...... All that is left is an almost busted in half pink and light blau lance mountain deck with one Independent truck on it, & I think a pyscho stick that is just as fubared....

Tragic man. That sux , But yeah no need for it, happens for a reason, Maybe some little dude is enjoying one of those boards right now and it lives on.

My First deck was a Powell Peralta Tommy Guerrero... wish I still had it, wish they would put a reissue out just as much.
This Vision is available, it's an original not reissue. It belongs to a mate of mine, if your interested I can hit him up for a price or you can make an offer. It's in pretty good condition, a few nicks, holes from rails etc and extra holes where the front trucks were set back.
