Most reissues pale in comparison to the original… I never understand how they can’t make it close considering they’re typically using an original for reference. That being said, I have the Flip Tom Penny Beatnik and it’s perfect. Flip’s approach is more of a continuation than a reissue. They use the same molds, same shape template and original screens.
If more companies did that, reissues would be so fun to buy, collect and skate. And if that were the case, I would want continuations of all my favorite boards from 94… Girl, Blind, Chocolate, Menace, World, Planet Earth… every company had bangers that year.
All time favorite would be Menace Cigar Series though. A continuation/reissue of those boards would be epic.
