I wanted a solid wood Alva deck in my collection,
only problem was Tony never sold any solid wood decks!
So I hand painted this one...

What the fuck people, this is beautiful and a great idea.
Alva never made a deck like that but people made skinny 6.75" oak decks without his authorization.
Than again this is a beautiful deck and a fun concept.
Did you add concave as well? |

@ Krayola,
Thanks for the compliment. I made the Alva logo not look like any colorway Tony made, so people would not think it was trying to be passed off as a "rare 1970's prototype" or whatever.
The deck was a blank solid wood deck I bought from Wes Humpston. Wes had some made for doing hand drawn projects.
It is 8.3" w x 31" l x 7/8" thick and weighs about the same as a Mini Cooper.  |
