Thanks, not sure I'd want a gator one after what he did though...
Skated since '86 and worked in a skate shop - the room of bmx stuff was just sitting there as skating got bigger and bmx was pushed to the side in order of the new skate board craze was blowing up I just picked up Stoked on DVD in a charity shop the other day for £1 I must of had about 60 boards + over the years there was a Haro circuit board on the wall for a long time, next to a Hosoi (biscut cut shape) Alva - all of the old flat board with no noses and wheel wells - they the fish tails came in Natas - Gator - McGill and so on saw it all change in time at the shop - from flat boards - fish tails - long nose - round nose - double tail (i had one of the first vision double tails around when every one thought they were Kooky and never gonna last ) the amount of boards that came and went in my hands at that shop - now i look back and wish i could have got one of each - even the repops are fetching big cash and collector highs

skateboard collecting is for weirdo's
Sweet! Thanks, not sure I'd want a gator one after what he did though...
Both were shit and youd have got your face punched in if you turned up at Rom with one
I don't get why anyone would even buy those skateboards now
