My FIRST board was a 'budget board' from What Everyone Wants
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wh…)Soon after getting that I got a set of Kryptonic Slammers
to replace the hard plastic wheels.After that me and my friends used woodwork planes to carve and sand out decks to give the impression of a concave like a pro deck.
I can remember the excitement of going through to Quarterback Sports in Glasgow to get my first pro board the Vision Gator. I had Ugly Stix pink rails on it, venture trucks and Powell Mini Rat wheels ( i still have the wheels).
Going back to my parents place in a few weeks to turn the place upside down looking for my old Gator. Pretty sure they would never have thrown it out and it will be somewhere! even though when I've (quickly) looked a few times before it's not uncovered anything.
