This Vallely board, along with the New Deal Siamese twin kick, were two of the first functioning street boards to have a nose and tail that were close to being the same. This board basically laid down the ground work for todays popsicle stick board shape and started the decline of the fish tail. If you watch The Man Who Souled the World, Rocco talks about how he got the mold for this board from the Vision double tail board, which was more of a gimmicky thing when it was introduced.
