I wouldn't spend a plug nickel on one of those things. (N)

i would love to have one i dont think i would pay a $100 tho

I think its a bit lame making new versions of retro things. If you want a retro plastic board, you can just buy an actual board from the 80s instead of paying more for something new that's pretending to be old, its like those jeans that are sold new but are pre-ripped to look old, when you could just buy old ripped ones for much cheaper (N)

One of these could easily be found in a thrift shop or ebay with the replacement of parts. All I want is a long board.

The carve of them aren't that good compared to the really old bannana boards. They are so much fun though. I got mine for 60 cause i got hookups (Y)

That's true; there are some really cheap banana boards you can find on eBay. (and I saw a really expensive one on craigslist in terrible condition!) I've honestly never tried riding one though, how do they ride?

its a plastic revolution....the stereo are also pretty sweet. http://appetiteskateboards.com/penny/
