Plan B Sean Sheffey Troll


The first Plan B boards that arrived at my local skate shop back in the early 90's were slicks and this was the first one I owned. It was awesome! At the time, it had the perfect size, shape and concave. Image from s&a. Speaking of Sheffey... how epic was this part? So amazing.

G&S Kris Markovich


A friend of mine growing up loved Markovich. I remember he had this board and was so psyched on it. I think this was Markovich's first pro model... right in midst of the graphic craze of ripping off corporate logos and trademarked characters.

G&S Street Chomp


At a time when board shapes were transitioning from short nosed tanks to symmetrical kicked popsicle sticks, G&S came out with two boards that were IMO ahead of the curve; the Street Chomp and Mark Heintzman's first pro model. I had the former (the shops in my town only got one of each) and it was definitely weird compared to all the boards I had prior to then... steep nose and tail and hellacious concave I'd never experienced.
