Mike, this deck was sold by a well known e-bayer last year if i remember right (might have been the year before), its one of Jay Addam's own and on the auction he had this message from Stacey Peralta, it might help in your search for info.
I was going to e-mail it direct, but i'm sure its of general interest.
"Here is what Stacy had to say about the board in April of 2000 { EZ is what spun off of Zephyr when Jay's dad Kent Sherwood (who was the original Zephyr board builder) had a disagreement with Ho and Skip, stopped making boards for them and began EZ Skates which I believe shortly after became Z-Flex . The Skateboard book from 1977 by Jim O'Mahoney has an original E-Z ad with I think Tony, Jay, Shogo, and possibly Paul Cullen as riders Glad to help Stacy}"

Hello, Mike here from Tunnel. I was just curious about E/Z Rider or Ryder Skateboards. This was the company that came after Zephyr and before Z-Flex. Does anyone out there have boards? Stickers? Are they valuable? How long before they became Z-Flex? Thanks for any input/history/etc. Mike

I bought a nice skateboard off e-bay which had full Tracker trucks, 70mm Red Kryps and a wooden rocker style deck with a purple Alva sticker on the bottom. The deck looks like a wooden Skuda deck with three thin dark wooden strips rather than two wider ones. It is beautifully made and has neat wheel arches. I would love to know who made the deck. Any ideas?

that GT is not a Grentec (GT), but rather just a company of the same name. GrenTec used a three hole mounting truck since day 1 and the molding did not look like that.

even that orange board is unusual to me, the long skinney hole pattern the pattern of the ribs, the brand might be gt but it looks different than the american gt's i've seen maybe the name was licensed to a british manufacturer A few years ago i acquired by trade a very vintage clay wheeled board and i later spotted the remanents of a "made in great britten"on one of the clay wheels. i reallized that a lot of stuff seems to be made in the uk besides the stuff that's very well known.

That's good news. The trucks are pristine, almost too good, glad to know they are correct. Would be great if these guys had a stash of NOS Vectors!

I have just received a pair of NOS Bennett Pro trucks that I won on ebay a couple of weeks ago. Super nice condition however the plastic baseplates seem to a smokey dark gray clear/see-thru material. The only other Bennetts I own have ACS baseplates. Always thought the plastic Bennett baseplates were solid/opaque black.
Is this right?
Any thoughts?

I'm heading to the Farm and this posed a nice dilema. Which board to put together for the Vintage race? I finally decided to put together the first FibreFlex slalom board I ever owned. I bought the deck from Brian Logan early fall of 1975 while up at La Costa.
It's a unique and one of a kind board that was built just for Brian by Dave McIntyre. A bit longer than the run of the day and it had extra plys for Brians weight. It still has the decals on it from back then with the only casualty being the top FF decal.
This should be fun.....

Its mad, a set of NOS OJ's sold about 3 months back for $400
Last week, and NOS set didnt even raise $50
Its mad lately. Some things that should have gone for tons, just havnt. Other things that are seemingly common or worthless has sold for much more than expected.
I've been on Ebay for 8 years and I've never seen it be so totally random for vintage skate gear as it is now.

Anybody have any idea what a good set of original OJ superjuice may be going for?
Would an E-bay auction draw enough true enthusiasts/collectors for this fine example of true skat-ism history?

Pro Class Skateboards Obscure Collection

Not sure if anybody in the world cares :---)I finally got the 3rd one!!
Pro Class made 3 different sizes. Slight difference in styles.
The 28 inch I would call it rare. Not valuable rare, just rare to find.
More common are the 30 inch w/ lots of laminated wood and the 24 inch.
I believe Pro Class timed the market in 1977-ish with a 1960s surfer
style deck look while the masses looked for other styles.
Most Pro CLass when you see them, are in pretty good condition. I believe
due to lack of use were made quite solidly! If anyone knows more
about Pro Class skateboards please let me know!!
Ads sucked in Skateboarder mag, and the deck I believe was last made in
1978... I suspect they had a 2-3 yr run...I am guessing based on some facts.
