If youve got NOS sixtracks youll need a drill..... the re-issues come with the lame-o new school hole pattern..

| I am looking at my Splash right now. The quality is super and the repo is exact. I bumped it against an ad in my SkateBoarder Vol.5, No.12 1979 Last page and they are a perfect match. They are awesome and worth the wait. I have a pair of 5" Trackers Mag and some red Alva Hardcores. It is very hard staying off it. I am thinking of buying one to skate. Hope you get yours soon. I have heard it does take awhile. About 3 weeks for me. seeya |

| Got mine finally. I just hate waiting for anything. Especially after you've already paid for it. It is a very nice piece of work and worth the wait. Thanks Brad. |

| On a side note: The Alva Leoopard repro deck is not the same shape as the original. The original one is more rounded on the sides. The wheel wells are angled and square in shape. Not the half tear drop on the repop. It has new school truck hole pattern and no graphics on top. But the new deck is a beautiful shape and great graphics on its own. Buy one to ride and one for the wall. |

| yeah they are awfully nice. Glad i finally got em. God, these things used to seem so huge. Now they seem pretty small. Not sure I could even ride one (if i decided to set one up). |
