1977 Sims flying Banana "skiboard": what can I sell it for? - Snowboarding Forum

08-18-2008, 11:42 PM

I am an old skateboarder with a 1977 sims Flying yellow Banana skiboard with a Lonnie Toft Skateboard deck attached to it. It's in very good shape. I know it must be a rarity. Does anyone know how much people are paying for one and where one could sell this board?
Would love some info. It rides great but I don't live in an area where I was able to use it much.
Thanks in advance for all your help.

You rode it?

Contact salty peaks snowboard shop in Utah they have the snowboard museum and buy old vintage stuff like that.

Yeah, I rode it. It doesn't have bindings, just a long stretchy thing almost like a rubberband that held your feet to the board. When you got air, you would get in the air first and then the board would slap against your feet. Kindof a split second delay.
