Apparently they re released them so people once again could try and break their necks!

Pretty sure the first ones were old skate decks that people converted and then someone decided to mass produce them with a little more nose on them.

You never repurposed a old skate deck for anything? I know I hookiebobbed on one a time or two as kid in the winter. They we used one as the plate for a luge we built. 4 sets of trucks, 3 2x4x8 boards, lots of duct tape, screws and some old foam. Wicked fun luges are!

Don't forget about Thomas Kemper and his crew. Crazy stuff the old boards were, still lust after a swallowtail winter stick. I'd buy it but likely never even take it out. Awesome board for the right conditions, but those have to be perfect!
