My first one was a hand me down from my cousin.

Powell Mini Logo (red stained woodgrain)
Independent Trucks (and they were on their last legs)
no name wheels that developed this…green look to them…and some of them had both bearings in them…some had one.

Oh well, it was a skateboard, something to learn on, I was stoked and I still am stoked on skateboarding.

90’ – this like red alleycat, single tipped it was plastic with what looked like chester cheeto on the bottom. hardcore trucks and wheels. i was 5, i learned to ollie up curbs and do early grabs off my launch ramp i was stoked.
95’ – creature with some weird hurse on the bottom, it was grey. spitfire wheels and i think some old trucks i forget what they were called.
2005 – ... fucking ankles
it sucks when you best tricks are your left and right ankles.
