Powell peralta Skateboard collection

Some of my favorites! These were the decks I thrashed and destroyed when I was younger. If I only know the value that they would bring now, I would have bought more and kept them:)

[@Dogmeat_donnie]

Grew up then. This collection is awesome! I had an old Schmidt sticks John Lucero that had never been gripped or mounted and I sold that for about 1000 bucks. There is a lot of money in those originals. I wish I didn't sell my collection. Unfortunately times and bills got the best of me. Hold onto them! Thanks for sharing.

[@Beaverj420]

I'm hoping I can find a nice grosso "enjoy" coke spoof deck some day. thanks for watching

[@Beaverj420]

check out my more recent video, I found a nice original Mark Gonzales!

[@austinartist0608]

Sweet. I had been collecting alien workshop decks because I like alien stuff. Gave it to my son. I had a cool display rack in mind for them. Have the Per Welander reissue. White. I ride it

[@johns818]

Literally my entire childhood.. phenomenal collection.

[@Beaverj420]

thanks.....I feel the same🤘😁👍

[@Beaverj420]

check out my newest video, I found a mark gonzales at a antique shop!

[@fedvvvv]

Holy shit! That's an amazing collection! I had the purple Tony Hawk way back in '85. It was stolen from my front yard.

[@Beaverj420]

Yeah, some people are assholes.

[@anzaeria]

That really sucks. I had two 1980s Powell Peralta boards stolen from the side of the house. One of them had autographs from Tony Hawk and Steve Caballero.

[@Occy30]

I had about a quarter of these as a kid. Completely forgot about the 🐊 deck. And that hawk deck was one of my favorites back in the day. Great collection!!!

[@wiskybiz]

Thanks for that trip down memory lane! My first Powell board was the Lance Mountain cave man, then I had a Guerrero bonite in the flouro pink with a cell block riser! Damn, memories!

[@Beaverj420]

I wish I still had all the ones that I thrashed back in the day. The one I really wish I kept (not skated) was a grey stain zorlac Metallica deck.

[@wiskybiz]

Beaverj420 Zorlac! I haven’t heard that uttered since forever. Stop it! Or I might ramble on about my Schmitt Stix Bryce Kanights, or my first half decent deck.. The Variflex Voodoo 2! Hats off to you man, great collection. 🤘

[@bbuteo]

omG mike mcbill was my skateboard..this brings me so many good memories..i still think the old school shape of skateboards were way more cool than today. I grew up with this groundzero wave of skateboarding..before was breakdancing, lol, good old times. Who remembers to watch over and over the movie Trashin´? back then we actually used to play for real, not seated on chair in front of a computer like i do these days. tx for sharing your great collection, i still have my skateboard with orange bullet wheels.

[@Beaverj420]

Thanks for watching. I've always been a fan of the d shapes, I like how you knew the skaters by just the shape of their boards. I'm 45 now and haven't skated hard in a few years (knee injury) but I have to boys 9 & 6 who skate...so I can live vicariously through them :)

[@TechReviewbyIrdi]

Busted my ACL on the Vallely. My razor tail was no more. Snapped on the handrail landing. But damn, loved that board, the mini Hawk, and the Ripper. Loved that board more than most. Had Hawk sign mine in Pittsburgh, Pa at ShadySkates during the Bones Brigade tour between 86-87. He was like 17 then, maybe 18. Was on KDKA news back then in the skatepark.

[@andrew-zr1pf]

Loved the Tony Hawk board and was my favourite and in those colours. Loved the shape of it too. Had the Per Welinder as it was a bit cheaper and traded it for the maroon Lance Mountain which felt a lot nicer to ride and was a really good board. Still might by that Tony Hawk board one day.

[@LankyWx]

*Awesome collection, don’t stop collecting!*

[@Beaverj420]

Thanks

[@sethwetzel974]

You lucky dog!!!!!!!! You got yourself two My Name is Earl boards!!!!!!!!!!! I envy you!!!!!!!! LOL!!!!!! Awesome collection!!!!! I skated most of those boards in the 80s!!!!

[@Beaverj420]

thanks man. I wish I had all the boards that I thrashed back in the day. I'd be sitting on a gold mine. The one I regret skating was my jeff grosso enjoy coke deck.

[@Beaverj420]

check out my other videos to see my new additions.

[@sethwetzel974]

@@Beaverj420 My three top decks to skate was the Powell Frankie Hill Dog, The Ray Barbee Card deck and the 32 inch good wood!!!!! If you remember the Good Wood your as old school as me!!!! LOL!!!! I started skating in 1979 on a home made board with roller skating wheels!!!! My first real board of course was a Nash!!!!!! LMAO!!!!!!!

[@TJDawgs72]

I had the Gator in Red and Black...it was my first board. My second one was the Hawk you have but in baby blue. I would love to get a baby blue version of the Batman Cab board you got...that’s my favorite board ever! Great collection dude...

[@Beaverj420]

It's my favorite color way. I was never a freestyle skater but I love to watch Mullen skate, especially nowadays! He's like the matrix and can slow down time!

[@toddluns1]

That Mullen colourway was always my fav. Super dope! I’d love to own another one!

[@vahioslim3003]

You don't see that Tommy Guerro deck often, very nice collection!

[@Beaverj420]

thanks man.

[@Shakester71]

Nice collection. My favorite board I had was the Mini Lance Mountain when they introduced their mini series. Shortly after, I skated a Madrid Mini Bryce Kanights. After that, I got sponsored by Fogtown and Venture, so I started riding the Fogtown Beast, which was an awesome board.

[@Beaverj420]

nice, I wasn't sponsored but my buddy buster halterman got picked up by chris Miller on planet earth.

[@Shakester71]

@@Beaverj420 I won a few local amateur skate contests when I was 16. Back in those days, there wasn’t all this flipping everywhere. Hand plants were big when I was skating and it’s when the ho-ho started picking up steam. I did one and the crowd went absolutely nuts. I think that won it for me.

[@fhpd350]

Great collection. I've searched for that Kevin Harris repro for a while. Still no luck. I remember I had the sticker on my old Santa Cruz pink Rob Roskopp deck in the late 80's. Always loved the mountie graphic.

[@Beaverj420]

Thanks. I always liked the funky green color.

[@tolzyt5338]

Used to have a white hawk as well bro. Loved it! Wish I had it today.

[@Beaverj420]

The silver cab is my favorite color way. I wish I could find a nice hawk in silver, that also was a great looking colorway

[@AndySo2000]

the Natas Jason Lee Satan 101 board is so rad, wish I had one, love the powell boards and that gator deck, Id sell the bam board though and get something else

[@joshuabenoit3744]

Cool collection! I just ordered a Hawk re-issue to ride on a little but I am wanting to start collecting some to put up like this in my pool house. Have to start with the Bones Brigade guys, and a Hosoi for sure.

[@Beaverj420]

I'm looking for a nice hammerhead in unused condition.

[@bazwax77]

I had the third one........probably about 1988,mum came home with it for my birthday,didn't think then but well done mum x

[@potatofry1237]

I had the mike McGill deck. But it was blue when I was a kid. Always wanted the hosi deck. The hammer head

[@Beaverj420]

Yeah, the hammer head decks are sweet. I've been looking for years for a mint original..... but I might have to settle for a reissue.

[@Youstix71]

omg that original tony hawk takes me back. nice collection bro

[@Beaverj420]

Youstix71 thanks!

[@teresabpalomo3671]

back in the 80s I had a tony hawk skateboard.I freaked out when I saw your Jason Lee cause it looked exactly like it .the blue with the red German cross the only thing that's different is the skull.I had independent trucks with 50\50 mini cubics on it.I SURE MISS THAT SKATEBOARD.ROMAN

Lovely collection dude, I'd be too tempted to build one and go for a shred.

Thanks, I do ride a reissue hawk that looks like my original. Man, it brings back memories!

[@hawerddolbee1278]

Nice collection the Mike vallely board is a trip to ride the Hawk bord is kind of cool.I had the minni version. I'd love to know where I could buy some bones wheels that were super soft for the ramp . Those are awesome to skate on

[@Corinthians-kjv]

A wonderful collection man!

[@grillagabe1]

I wouldn't be able to resist tearing those up. I had some of those back in the day.

[@Beaverj420]

grillagabe1 it's tempting but I have a few riders that are used and abused.

[@MrBrooxy]

I had alot of these when i was a kid back when they were new. A deck would last me about 3 months. My favourite was the Lance Mountain and mike mcgill were the best to ride 🤘

[@Beaverj420]

I wish I had all the decks that I thrashed. I could probably retire:)

I'm so lucky iv still got 4 original 80es decks like new .I bought couple reissues .wonder if they ever going to do any more last ones I bought was the natural colour .my original are kept away . Got over 300 decks .

[@Beaverj420]

Nice, I was sorta bummed about reissue decks coming out but some old decks are just impossible to find in unused condition. Because let's face it, when they came out we have know idea of how much these would be worth 30 years from now. That's why I picked up a few of the bam and Chris cole decks, because in a few years....💰💰💰

[@NickSkate7]

Such a sick collection dude!

[@Beaverj420]

thanks man! It's a small one but these were my favorite grafix when growing up. Plus I've always been a fan of VCJ artwork.

[@jdmcnugent6808]

Man I need that cat in the hat jason lee! You know where I can get one? Great collection by the way :)

[@Beaverj420]

Thanks man. I haven't seen one for sale in a long time.

[@CT-nb5lm]

Can't believe we were learning kickflips on that Lance shape. Never landed one. My follow up deck has that honor(Grosso Wonderland)

[@Beaverj420]

I play around on a santa cruz Eric W. thats set up old school and I'm always telling my kids that I learned 75%of the tricks on those heavy things. But luckily I lived through all the shapes and designs. I do miss that you could tell the pro model by its shape.

[@CT-nb5lm]

Guys,, I learned that the vintage PowellPeralta era decks are noticable superior quality of wood.. *I can't skate these no nose decks but my hill bomb deck is a 1988 Ray Undehill nicknamed TheBeast because of how steep the tail/concave and long nose like a JayLeno chin.. *Weird how that Underhill has a huge nose almost two years before TheGonz & Blind started coming out with em that long.. **Fast Forward to Chriss Senn & StreetSkating Stev Cab in early 90's football shape (1 yearor2 right b4 popsicle ruined everything) Those dekcs are skatable for sure.. Th eonly difference this 45 year old notices is the tail is very soft and same with nose.. We skated those decks with no risers and super tiny wheels so when i put a riser on em now with newer stage Indies it's like a new exp.. So if you see a 1993 Powell Deck on ebay= you'll feel the difference. My rule is it has to be under $140.

[@lynxz2010]

whoah man awesome collection!

[@Beaverj420]

LynXz thanks, it has grown a little more since this video, I got a few chris cole and a frankie hill 911.

Did you ride the ripper? I've seen a few that have been thrashed. I couldn't bring myself to mount it, it is a very limited edition. The gator took me forever to find one that wasn't used. It cost me a small fortune but I love it!

Sir Aldo -- in roughly the 4 minutes you took me through the best days of my my life. I had both a red+ a yellow Vallely & once i took flight i never retouched earth until a few girls called me down. landed which pisses my wife & her husband off. I still believe you get the shape available from street plant. Are you familiar with "PP - Bone-ite" scam? it came around in 1987-89 to eliminate a layer of maple and add a roofing type .

[@bignewt5239]

My very first deck was a Hosoi. My favorite was the Lance Mountain Doughboy.

[@jeremysteckman6234]

Sweet my first board was a variflex I broke it in a week my next was a roskop face my favorite was a tie between a Lance Mountain Junior and the channel one cow

[@Beaverj420]

The dough boy was a good shaped deck. My very first deck was a valtera skate zombie. Cheapie from a department store, but that's what started my passion for skating. I have been trying to find a good condition skate zombie but had no luck.
