I purchased this board roughly 14 yrs ago, it was the first snowboard I purchased. I bought it from a guy and I don't know how long he had it for before he sold it to me. Ive been curious about it for awhile but in my search, can't seem to find anything on this board. All I know is that its an early World Industries snowboard. I would really like to sell this board,I held on to it for a very long time because I enjoy it, and it is unique. I don't even know if this one is even worth selling.

Its an old snowboard its pretty much worthless to really use, some people find worth in items for collection. I asked a question you don't have to be an ass about it. I don't expect someone to buy it for doing any hardcore snowboarding. on top of being out of date by over 15 yrs, its very small. Do people even collect snowboards? I don't know. That is why i am asking. Also Just for the sake of knowing for myself I am curious to know if anyone can tell me anything about this board.

World industries never ran the skateboarding world. they catered to new skateboarders and had really shitty boards. Skateboarders were skating black label, element, flip, girl, habitat, etc...While posers (aka gapers in snowboarding) were riding world industries.

BAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH How old are you? You couldn't be anymore wrong. Half those companies weren't around. Powell Peralta ran skateboarding, then World Industries changed skateboarding forever.

Watch the documentry The Man Who Souled The World, then get back to me.

Never thought I'd enter a thread seeing if i could help identify a board and leave wanting to learn about world industries, independent and blind...

Is there an an app for a question like this? It looks like a WI graphic. Those guys on pawn stars could figure it out. Here is another idea in addition to hanging the board a art. You could always make a bench or table with more boards, but i have always had an idea of taking snowboards or skateboards, attaching them to something stable (strong wood or metal sheet), and pouring some clear resin over it within a frame, knock off the frame when dry and make it a smooth bar counter. It would look freakin awesome. I sawit down with shells, glass, and bottles on one of those DIY shows. Good luck!
