This post goes out to NocturnalOccultist. The set up McGill is mine - The Cab is my sons. The pics are taken from mid year so they look newish. The other decks will be hung up around my bedroom. I want to cover all the walls - I'm going to need around 20 decks to do it right. I buy them when I get a chance - funds are tight so its a slow process. I hate Popsicle shaped decks - they're soulless and have no personality. Personally, old school skateboards and metal go hand in hand.

Whoa, Killer collection mate!
I've got an original Vision street wear, Indie trucks, Bones wheels, Has seen much better days, Plan to start skating again soon, Brought new deck few months ago but thinking getting another old school deck.
Is the quality of the reproductions good?

The quality is second to none. I still gotta get a few vision boards I had from back in the day. I still miss my Gator - a reissue I need to get for my wall

Sweet! Thanks.
I got various decks, Some of the quality is rather shite.
Yeah Gator has some killer decks, Might have to get a couple old school decks to use and hang on the wall, Got ten decks under my bed and one setup haha.

HOLY FUCKIN SHIT! You got a nice collection going on and your son have a good taste!
Interesting that the McGill was suppose to be my first board but instead I bought the Tony Hawk (Purple/Black http://www.nativeskatestore.co.uk/images/powell-peralta-tony-hawk-skull-...).
The Ray Barbee deck is fuckin rad, i need this in my collection. The Caballero deck is nice, liking the Animal Chin era decks needing im collection as well! Diggin the Bones and Per Welinder decks!
The santa cruz the other hand, hand down to the raddest skaters there Jason Jessee, Claus Grabke, Natas, Rob Roskopp, Duane Peters, Steve Olson, Grosso, etc... those jessee decks are hella nice I'm thinking about getting the his deck like this (http://www.hellskate.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Jason-Jessee-Pray-Fo...)
Also for Vision, I really like Tom Grohoski's deck that is inspired by Van Halen, Priest, and Twisted Sister but I do like others ex. Psycho stick, Gonz, Aggressor, Agent Orange, etc... As for Gator, I dont know if i should get it because we all know who he is but his decks are hella rad especially his "christian days"!
Anyways I'm still collecting skateboards even though i have the time in the world to do it all but my money going to the other things first! But really I usually hop by skateshops and buy decks first and looking around craigslist for completes. Hopefully this spring or summer will continue my habit of skateboarding!
Cheers Mate!
