I thought I'd just put this out there.

I've got a bit of a collection of boards that I used to ride back in the 90's.. unfortunately gave away a few away back then to toe-up friends and now looking to get them back into the 'nostalgic quiver'.

to be honest, I do ride these boards at least once every couple years, so no looking for boards that have been destroyed on rails & rocks.

will pay decent, but not silly money!

circa 1995 Sims Noah Salasnek Skateboard Graphics

circa 1996 Sims Noah Salasnek 157 Gone Fishing Graphics

Add a circa 1996 Regis Roland A-Snowboard 162

( though doubt hardly any of these reached the U.S. - A euro guy came through town who was riding for "Paul Smith" Hair Products !!!???? but anyway also knew Regis Rolland at "A" Snowboards and hooked me up with this board. Unfortunately I passed it on to another friend that same year...

here's a grainy pic of me grabbing the skull graphics slob

I've already seen the Sims Skateboard one on ebay.. but think that she wants far too much $$ for the condition of that board.

I know that feeling. I used to have the Salasnek, an Atlantis Ingemar Backman and a K2 Daniel Franck back then and I'm still angry at myself for giving them away.

There's a group an Facebook call "History of Snowboarding". Join it, they might be able to help you there. Many of the 90s riders are on there.

Also check Craigslist regularly. It's not that rare that somebody found a vintage board in his garage and doesn't know what it is. I scored an old Emma Peel in great condition there once for $15.

Good luck hunting!

Dude, when & for how long did you live here?

If you been snowboarding for that long too, we must have rode together @ some point

Heh, I lived in Kits for a year, June 2011- June 2012. I'm sure we have met at Cypress unknowingly . I had a season pass there and probably 60 days on snow. Too bad I didn't think of asking people from Vancouver to go riding. I would do that now but now I am on the other side of the world

Your best bet is to save the search on Ebay and have it emailed to you when someone puts one up.

No, your best bet is to join this Facebook group started by Polemite aka the Supernatural poacher.

I just had the Salasnek board a couple years ago.
It shouldn't take you more than a few weeks to get the ones you're looking for.

I post shit on there almost daily, sometimes a few per day

Last week I drove & picked up an Avalanche Damian Sanders pro model deck that looked like the devil made for him.

I thought I'd seen every deck, but had never seen this one before

Even paid for it out of my own pocket, which left me broke for a few days.
Just put it on a Greyhound bus yesterday, bound for Manitoba.

Do you have to die before being appointed a Saint?

Hope not
