Quoted the wrong post. But ya, there may be some white.
The reason I ask is that back in the day just before the DP decks were released, NHS dumped and entire first run of decks meant to be the first DP model because they did not meet the quality expected. These decks had a white primer to cover up the poor quality of the wood and manufacture. They were put in NHS' dumpster which was later raided by a person who took the decks to another woodshop were they were shaped and painted with the DP graphic. As Jeff Kendall explained to me, the tell on what he considered to be fakes was they had a white primer on them when they were disposed off and the guy who scooped them printed/painted over the basecoat. Santa Cruz boards did not have pre-shot primer on the product—all paint/print/basecoat etc was done at Santa Cruz (this was just before Santa Cruz' manufacturing moved their manufacturing to a furniture woodshop in Wisconson that created some of the best decks ever).
Kendall informed that the guy went around to skate shops offering these decks for a fraction of their usual wholesale price and thus was able to move them quickly and before NHS could interfere. By the time NHS realised what had happened, all the decks had been sold. The white primer is the tell, he said.
Thank you. That’s a really interesting story. I guess I’ll ask the seller for more pics to be sure.
If it’s authentic, do you have an idea on the value?
Thanks again. |

Legit and Mint $800 - $2400
It spirals down from there weighing the legitimacy and condition.
If I had the cash I'd drop $600 without blinking. I looked for one for 25 years.
I have this for sale, don't want to sell it but I need the cash:

Thanks man. I appreciate all the insight. I’ll let you know what happens.
Your board is beautiful. Sorry you have to part with it. |

Oh shit, someone tell Duane he got hoodwinked!
White primer, eh?
And is that a little NHS logo I see on Duane's tail stripe? Only ever seen that on two decks....Duane's and the OP's.... |

That's not primer. that's maple veneer, sticker debris and whatever else he ground the deck against. No NHS logo either. |

Don't thank me, thank Jeff Kendall, President - CMO NHS Inc. He filled me in on all of that. He's spotted a few and I've ran a few past him.
Its about keeping members safe. Sticks doesn't seem to care or understand those kind of things.
Doesn't make your friends deck worthless by any means. It just lowers it to the same level as tributes/copies/knock-offs. There's a lot of that out there. Some even originated here. Stickers are the most knocked-off. |

I have the deck in hand. If this is a bootleg, the one in the picture dp is riding is as well. They're exactly the same. There's nothing different. If that's Maple veneer, then so is this. The big white patch in the middle was residue from a paper sticker, not white paint showing though. Both have NHS on the tail. They are exactly the same. |

I gotta say, I can clearly see the NHS on the tail of both decks.
I can’t see the white primer though. .....a lot of scratches only show raw wood with no white feathering around the gouge.
A guy walks into a Psychiatrist’s office only wearing Saran Wrap.
The Psychiatrist says, “I can clearly see ya nuts”......
I can clearly see the NHS hiding DP’s nuts. |
