Boards On The Wall Thread

[MFS]

Got back into collecting last year, held onto the dennis mcnett cardiel board from back in the day. wish id saved more.

If you have time can you post a full pick of the Caine Gayle.  I don't think I've ever seen that, and it looks interesting.

i'll try to get one tonight if i can remember. I have it behind a bunch of stuff including a toolbox so that's why it only shows a small portion of it in the pohoto. In the meantime here is a screenshot of it from AoS:

That's a pretty good graphic for a Monkey deck.  Enrique Lorenzo is the only person I knew was on that team.

thank you

My brother got me a nice birthday present for my wall

Just 18 gauge wire twisted together, hanging on nails in drywall.

Old skated decks that have sentimental value over the last four years.
*correction: that anti-hero on the right is from ~12 years ago

Having a kiddo and moving, so need to toss these. Thought I'd memorialize them here. Used to use my snapped or spent boards for all the stickers from demos and shops - 93-98 or so (shout out Something Else skateshop). Lots of long-gone brands on here. I have a few more also. Let them rest in peace (or if anyone in LA wants them they're yours).

[busey]

damn that's sick, best of luck getting rid of them

That's a cool idea, I might do that.
I have so many stickers....so fucking many stickers that I can never figure out anything to do with.
Cool stickers are a curse, it's like...I gotta put this on something really special, something I'll have for decades if not the rest of my life...guess it'll just sit in the sticker box for now for the next 15 years...

Okay hear me out. Take your favourite sticker. Trace it onto a cardboard. Cut that cardboard with a scissor. Put the sticker onto said cardboard. (Or use duct tape if you want to preserve the sticker) Put some griptape onto the back of the cardboard. And now you have a really cool coaster for the morning coffee.

Not the most innovative idea but maybe it is better as leaving the sticker in a shoe box for another 15 years?

a few on my walls:

I skated the Justin Eldridge from that saints series and still have it.

I got the chico for my wife, though sort of for myself I guess mostly. My wife is salvadoran, so it was a great excuse at the time for me to get a cool hanger and have her be on board for it.

I always thought that Chico board was strange bc he’s Nicaraguan, not El Salvadorian.

Óscar Romero is the probable reference, though referred to as the Patron Saint of El Salvador he is also considered Patron Saint of the Americas. The Lady of Peace image on the board makes me think that is the case. Otherwise, i don't know for sure. We're not catholic in my house and the deck is more just a reference to my wife being Salvadoran for my purpose of having it as a wall hanger.

[corey websturd]

I ain't a hoarder but the only I keep hung is a Cardiel from 2001.I sold all valuables decks to pa rents.

[Madam, I'm Adam]

This is more of a board collection question - has anyone had their collection appraised for insurance purposes? Have you had someone take a look at everything, or did you estimate the worth based on prior receipts?

I think I posted the second set before but I have 2 sets of the FTC painted ladies and recently put the other set in my office.

[Lizard_Prince]

Memorializing my wall because I am moving and have to take it all down.
- Huge Parra fan and love what he has done with Tired. The Gonz is all time of course. Their line work has a special kind of harmony that flows well together.
- Welcome is Welcome but those spot foils are niiiice.
- Local Providence, RI brands Swan Common and Novo (RIP to both) mixed in with my all time favorite graphic from Theories, the downfall of the Knights Templar.

magic vs. bird combo is too sick

Thanks busey, I did that graphic for a Swan Common/Novo collab.

Thats a nice layout.

[Coffee]

On mobile and incompetent at posting photos. Currently have a blank deck that my daughter painted for me for Father’s Day when she was about 5(unused), a chocolate Jerry Hsu that was my first deck I skated after a 12 year hiatus, the last Koston pro model for Girl(unused), a Baker Baca deck that’s the classic baker font with a white background that I skated a couple times after my brother got it for me for Christmas, a shop deck from the local shop of my childhood that closed down in 2015ish(unused), and waiting to hang the Brian Anderson Anti Hero deck that Lance Mountain did the graphic of his front blunt down Hubba from Welcome to Hell( still wrapped in plastic).

[DISTANT RUMOURS]

Not sure if I posted my last three acquirements.
I'm done collecting now though ...

[ctsskate]

Absolutely beautiful…the Heath Mondrian one has always been a favorite.

Cold brew bottles, carafes, and water bottles are the new laptop & car when it comes to stickers in adulthood.

[Fongstarr.]

Some cool stuff on e-bay from Chocolate on 12/7. That Chico portrait board would be rad to have but would go for a grip I bet.

Kelly Bird "Outdoorsman" reissue

[theoriginalgoon]

Two new additions. No photos because I am too lazy but recently added Emile Laurent deck and Joe Campos deck to the collection. I decided that if I am going to buy some decks for the wall I am going to limit it by only buying the first pro model graphic of my favorite riders. Campos and Emile were a must.

[theoriginalgoon]

so i recently got a full 5 deck set for the wall. do you guys think a 5 deck set should have a little space in between the decks on the wall or should i display them side by side touching.

[Too Frank To Fred]

Does the series make up one big picture? If so, put them together.

If not, space them a few inches apart.
