hey folks
feeling a bit guilty i spend a lot this month but i just love to see my collection growing.my wife is sick of seeing piles of decks in da house and she asked me why did i buy old boards like if i were a maniac.
she wants me to buy one deck per month,i can't do that but don't know how to convince her,it's strange because sometimes i don't buy deck for monthes and sometimes i could buy 10 in 30 days.
here's all what i dig during september


125$ on the bay


5$ in a gsale


190$ on the bay


15 bucks on a gasle


300$ on a local sell site


150$ on ebay


2 bucks in a gsale,that was my very first board but the trucks


125$ ebay


10$ ebay


8$ gsale


2bucks gsale
+ 10 BBC decks that i not pictured yet,but this is from a trade,i didn't bought them

i am asking : am i possessed to skate?

Get focus.
What is the ERA you grew up? What decks in particular were the most influential, whether it be rider, brand, and/ or graphic? Strictly go well used setups, lightly used, or NOS?

grew up in the late 80's,started to skate at 10 with a plastic John Work deck,then a Vision Joe Johnson calendar pro deck in 1988,that's why i like to collect old Vision boards from that period.
Got the luck to be in Le Grand Bornand France in 1990 and 1991 during the World Cup event,very good time there and i like to collect pictures from that particular event and board from riders who were in le grand bornand.
gotta lotta BBC deck and i especially like Phillips and Simpson's ones.
I'm doing a lot of yard and gsale to get some vynil so i dig some boards too,i like to buy from all periods because it's good to show the history of skateboards to kids.
my collection could be seen on photobucket.com,just tape "djoldskull" in search

Didn't realize you lived in Switzerland.
Any chance of you being able to ship over a couple of 6 foot blue eyed, blond haired beauties, of the female gender, to Florida?

If it all makes you tick, then so be it. Stuff can gather fast enough, even when you think you have focus. I am probably a prime example of that. Variant head when it comes to Zorlacs.
