| My Collection |
- Alva - Fred Smith III - Loud One Model This is a classic deck. I always remember seeing this graphic in old Thrashers and it always stood out to me. This one is slightly used and has the sticker of the graphic on the tail, which is always a plus.
- Alva - Eddie Reategui - Warrior (Mint) There seems to be a lot of warrior minis floating around, but this is the first full size one I have come across. The background is a black stain which fades into red and then back into black, giving the graphic an apocalyptic touch. The graphic is drawn by Mad Marc Rude, who drew some album covers (Misfits Earth A.D. and Hirax Hate, Fear, and Power) and numerous punk flyers. Some of his art can be seen in the book Fucked Up and Photocopied. There is a documentary about Marc in works. Here's a shot of my two warriors (and Tim's as well). (Mad Marc Rude Graphics)
- Alva - Eddie Reategui - Warrior Mini (Mint) This deck has a green/yellow/natural fade for a pretty nice effect. The graphic stands out very well and against the natural background. (Mad Marc Rude Graphics)
- Jodie Foster's Army - JFA This deck is perfect for a Beach Blanket Bong-out! This was a factory second (there is a small crack near the rear truck) and has never been gripped or mounted. Truly a beautiful deck.
- Museum - Dragonfly Edition (Mint) Museum was a small company in the early 90s run by Pushead. Each deck was limited and came with a certificate. This deck is #13/100. Here's a close up of the top graphic. (Pushead graphics)
- Plan 9 - Misfits - Evil Never Dies (Skull Shape) This was originally aquired with The Moffer's Misfits deck and has since come into my possession by the hand of fate.
- Powell Peralta - Lance Mountain - Future Primitive
My first deck was a Lance Mountain FP mini (seen below). I was stoked to get a full size model in the same color scheme (VC Johnson graphics).
- Powell Peralta - Lance Mountain - Future Primitive Mini My first deck. I learned to ollie on this thing! Years later when my van finally died I pulled the old stickers off. I wasn't quite sure what to do with them so I put them on this deck (VC Johnson graphics).
- Powell Peralta - Tony Hawk - Skull & Cross Given to me on my 21st bday by Keleigh. Check out the awesome grip job! (VC Johnson graphics)
- Powell Peralta - Tony Hawk - Mouse Tim gave this deck to me for my birthday. I don't remember this graphic, but I was never a huge Hawk fan. Nosebones rule.
- Santa Cruz - Rob Roskopp - Face
This is one of those decks that I always remember seeing in old Thrashers and Transworlds. Someone did a pretty rad grip job on this one. It's set up with Indy stage IIIs and Madrid Street Flys. (Jim Phillips graphics)
- Santa Cruz - Corey O'Brien - Comic Book (Mint) This deck is Corey's 3rd pro model. It is drawn by Dan Clowes, who created such graphic novels as "Like a Velvet Glove Cast in Iron" and "Ghost World." He is also the creater of a monthly comic entitled "Eightball." For more info on Clowes, check out his publisher, Fantagraphics. (Dan Clowes graphics)
- Santa Cruz - Tom Knox - Minor Threat This deck features a pic of Tom in a spoof on the Minor Threat s/t 7" cover. This deck is punk as hell! Check out the Dischord-like top graphic
- Santa Monica Airlines - Natas Kaupas - Kitten My old roommate left this behind when he moved out. I quickly took it and have successfully avoided him for many years now. (Jim Phillips graphics)
- Santa Monica Airlines - Natas Kaupas - Panther Oddly enough, I got this Natas in a very similar way to the kitten deck. This one is autographed. This deck is ungripped but definitely has its share of storage wear. (Jim Phillips graphics)
- Schmitt Stix - Ripsaw 2 This deck is a bit beat up but still in fairly good condition. Its got a great shape. The top of the board near the rear truck has a very strange cut, which I remember seeing on the Ripsaw Mini I used to have.
- Skull Skates - Mutant This deck is asymetric. Its a pretty wild shape - even for skull skates. It came in regular and goofy foot shape, this being the regular. I would love to find a goofy to hang next to it.
- Skull Skates - Johnny Ray - Team Skül Batail I believe this is the mini version of the batail. This deck has a great looking shape, but I'm not sure how pratical that tail would really be. You got to give it to those Skull Skates guys though, they definitely weren't afraid to try new things.
- Skull Skates - Dead Guys This is a sick coffin cut deck featuring 6 dead guys - John Belushi, Elvis Presley, James Dean, Albert Einstein, Jimi Hendrix and Sid Vicious.
- Skull Skates - Dead Guys 2 Longboard This is an updated version of the Dead Guys, featuring the original 6 plus 6 more - Andy Warhol, Eazy E (Mispelled as Easy), Kurt Cobain, Bruce Lee, JFK, and Sammy Davis Jr. It measures in a whopping 9.5" by 46" and has a nice coffin shape. Here is a close up of the graphic.
- Skull Skates - Christian Hosoi - Max Hammerhead
This is such a rad deck. I'm glad I was able to find the original Skull Skates version. Now I just need to find a Hammerhead II. Here's a pic of my two Hosois.
- Skull Skates - Christian Hosoi - Max Hammerhead III What collection could be complete without a hammerhead? This is the Hammerhead III, which features the splash background. Definitely a true classic.
- Skull Skates - Skeletal I had some trouble finding the name of this deck, but through extensive research (i.e. looking through old Thrashers) I found a Skull Skates ad featuring this and many other decks. There is a Skeletal 2 as well, which features a smiilar shape and an equally as busy graphic.
- Skull Skates - LA's Wasted Youth LA's Wasted Youth are a pretty rad band. The first album rocked and featured Pushead coverart. Too bad the deck doesn't.
- Skull Skates - Ken McGuire - Face (mint) This deck has a pretty bizarre, yet rad nose. Here's a pic of Ken himself ripping on this model in an old Bullets Wheels ad.
- Skull Skates - Craniums Wheels put out by Skull Skates. I have one white one and one pink one, both 97a.
- Vision - Gator - Spiral One of the most famous skateboard graphics ever. This is the first version of the graphic, which I like much better.
- Variflex - Lucero This is Lucero's first pro model. It was pulled shortly after production because of questionable graphics. The graphics are pretty tame by today's standards. Here's the ad from a 1984 Thrasher, that features Jeff Grosso skating on this model. Supposedly there is only one other known copy of this deck, which is in Lucero's personal collection.
- Zorlac - Mark & Barry Abrook - Butterfly I picked this one up from Steve at Vintage Skates. It appears to have been shellacked. Some of my favorite Pushead graphics to ever grace a skateboard. This piece is entitled 'The Beauty of the Pain inside.' (Pushead Graphics)
- Zorlac - Aaron Deeter - Apple in Teeth (mint) This deck features a rotten apple being crushed by rotting teeth. A very unique Pushead deck; no skulls, no bandages, no eyes, but still pretty rad. Here's a close-up. This graphic came in ramp and street sizes, this being the ramp size. Here's the ad which shows both Deeter's models. (Pushead Graphics)
- Zorlac - John Gibson
Not in the best condition but its still a sweet deck. This is the later model with this graphic that has sidecuts. (Pushead graphics)
- Zorlac - Rob Mertz - Shark This deck features a shark rising up from graveyard. In the background is a keystone representing Mertz's roots in PA. Check out Mertz's own site, Mertzworld. Here's the sticker of the same graphic. Check out the ad for this model and another one featuring Mertz. Awesome grip job done by Steve at Vintage Skates (Pushead Graphics)
- Zorlac - Donny Myhre - Alligator (mint) Sweet pushead design from this East Coast ripper. The alligator is holding the state of Florida in his hand, revealing Myhre's Floridian roots. Here's the sticker of the same graphic. Check out these 2 ads for this Model. (Pushead graphics)
- Zorlac - Donny Myhre - Alligator (mint/signed) This deck features updated alligator grahpics. The screen has some more colors, there is a bat background, and it features the updated Zorlac logo on top and bottom. The deck is signed on the tail by Myhre. Here's a pic of all the Myhre alligators. (Pushead graphics)
- Zorlac - Todd Prince - Toad Prince (mint) Another one I picked up from Steve at Vintage Skates. I especially like the demons burning in the flames and the frog head with skeletal fingers in its ears a la the Zorlac 'Shut up and Skate' graphic. Nice shape too.
- Zorlac - Scott Stanton - Clown This deck is in excellent condition. Unfortunately, some horse's ass spray painted the whole bottom silver - and then didn't even ride it. Most of the silver paint has been removed, but there is still some residue over the graphic. The clown on the deck is also included in Stanton's later model. Zorlac put out a number of different ads for this graphic. One ad features three size variations of this graphic and claims Stanton as being 'High as a Kite' and 'Strung Out' and refers to Zorlac as 'That stoner company.' This was poking fun at Stanton (as well as Myhre and Mertz) being Straight Edge. (Pushead Graphics)
- Zorlac Double Cut
The holy grail for Zorlac collectors. I have wanted this one for awhile but never had the money to pic one up. This one is used but still in pretty fair condition. (Pushead graphics)
- Zorlac - Double Cut Mini I picked up this board from Tim at Spy Hill Skates. Its pretty small, even for a mini. Unfortunately, someone has put a couple nicks on this, one right through the eye. It's still in good condition though. Here's a pic of it with the full size. (Pushead Graphics)
- Zorlac - Gargoyle Mini (mint) Is there a more phallic deck? No. This Deck is bright pink and shaped like a large penis. I can't imagine what Zorlac was thinking, but they threw some awesome graphics on this deck. Check out the silhouette of the shape in the ad for this model. Buyers knew what they were getting into. Here's the sticker of the graphic and a close up. (Pushead Graphics)
- Zorlac - Sacred Cow I like the simplicity of these graphics. This design is far better then the later sacred cow graphic. It has a nice pig shape, and is currently the only true pig in my collection.
- Zorlac - Sacred Cow '86 This is the last Sacred Cow model Zorlac made. I'm not a big fan of these graphics, but they are starting to grow on me a little. I like the clear grip on top though.
- Zorlac - Shrunken Mask A slightly different take on the shrunken head motif. This deck also has a nice bat background. Here's the sticker of the same graphic. I set this deck up with some Zombus and Deadbolt trucks. (Pushead Graphics)
- Zorlac - Willie & Billie Damn it All - Curb Thang This deck has some deep concave, as well as rad graphics. The top graphic is a graveyard scene and the bottom is a vampire woman with bite marks on her neck. I guess she is from outer space 'cause there is a planet with rings in the background. Apparently there is another Curb Thang featuring the top graveyard scene graphics on the bottom. Here is some more Damn It All graphics and Phread art. (Phread Graphics)
- Zorlac - Zombus One 92a and one 95a, both 65mm. The 92a is unridden. The 95a is one of four that I got a from a friend. Zorlac put out many ads for Zombus. One ad featured Rick Charnoski, a Zorlac AM who is now making documentaries such as 'Fruit of the Vine.' (Pushead graphics)
- Zorlac - Metallica Pirate A little beat up, but still prety damn rad. I really like the color scheme on this deck a lot better than most Metallica pirate decks I've seen. I also like the shape, as far as I know this is the original shape. Here's the ad for this model and the Hella Clean ad featuring Metallica. (Pushead graphics)
- Zorlac - Metallica Pirate Same pirate graphics but new shape and added background. Here's the ad for this model, which features Zorlac AM Rick Charnoski. (Pushead graphics)
- Mega Metallica Another great Metallica graphic. This piece is entitled 'Chopsticks.'(Pushead graphics)
- Zorlac - Metallica Spider The deck features a unique spiderweb metallica logo and has an orange spiderweb behind the graphic which doesn't show up too well against the natural background. The orange spiderweb can be seen in the close up. Here's the ad for this model. Here's a pic of all of my Metallicas that I owned at one point. Check out the shape evolution. (Pushead graphics)

| Some Newer Decks |
- Bad Apple - Bill Danforth - Pool Model (Mint) Bad Apple is a small company out of NYC. This deck measures in at 9"x33". There were only 50 of these made. The border is reminiscent of old Alva decks.
- Bane - Guinness (Gripped) Bane is a small company out of Monterery, California. I picked this up off a transient by the name of Peter Gunn who was passing through. This deck measures a nice 8.75". I recently heard that this is the last one of these decks in existence.
- Black Label - Jason Adams - Punk Point 8.5" (Mint) This deck is rad. The graphics leave a little to be desired but the shape more than makes up for it. I skated one and bought a second one so I could skate it a couple months down the road.
- Conspiracy - Wrex Cook - Zombie Great Pushead graphics on this Wrex Cook pro model. More reminiscent of his Bacteria Sour art than Puszone or Pusmort work, but still on the horror theme. (Pushead graphics)
- Conspiracy - Mohiconspiracy Classic Pushead design put out by Conspiracy. I remember this graphic from old Thrasher's and maybe some flyers. (Pushead graphics)
- Conspiracy - Foot of Fear Another classic Pushead design on Conspiracy. I remember this being a Pusmort graphic, to mirror the hand. (Pushead grahpics)
- The Firm - Lancer (Mint/Gripped) This deck measures in at a nice 9.5" wide. I like this graphic a lot and have always been a big fan of Lance Mountain. That dude can rip pools, and this is a sweet deck for it.
- Foundation - Foundation Pool Service (Mint) This deck features a sick pic of Tod Swank doing a f/s nosegrap grind on the hip of a backyard pool.
- Foundation - Del Mar (Mint) Foundation is putting out some nice wide decks. This one is a rip off of Pushead's Del Mar graphic.
- Gringo - Craig Johnson - Voodoo Doll Reprint of Johnson's first graphics on Zorlac. The voodoo doll has a different head this time around. I've been told that this was the original design, but the head was changed before being released by Zorlac. (Pushead graphics)
- Illenium - Ol' Scurvy (Mint) This deck is just awesome. Its got a rad pirate skull and killer pirate ship background. Here's a close up of the skull. Unfortunately, Illenium is no longer around, but you can still check out their site here.
- Krooked - Hosoi Hammerhead Christian Hosoi's Gest Pro Model put out by Krooked. Nice hammerhead shape with a kicknose and a fishtail. A very interesting design.
- Madrid - Bill Danforth Reissue Trading the original Madrid Danforth that I had is probably my biggest regret as a collector. I picked up this one because it is an awesome deck and I'm not sure I will be able to get another original.
- Powell - Steadham Reissue Reissue of this awesome deck.
- Santa Cruz - Roskopp Series Reissue Santa Cruz have reissued this classic series with updated shapes. I think they've done a pretty damn good job.
- Scum Skates - Pitchfork The dreaded "blader hater!". Its got Indys and Bullet 66's on it. It feels great to skate bowls on this. Scum put out an ad featuring some modifications and the names that accompany them. Check out the Scum site here.
- Scum Skates - Beer Run 2 (Mint) This deck features the Hamm's Beer bear, this time he's scurrying with a platter of beer. Definetly a sweet shape too.
- Zero - Adrian Lopez - Melting Face (mint) This is the second Lopez model that Zero put out with Pushead graphics. My neighbor told me that they made two different face models, one of the left side and one of the right side, but I don't beleive him. (Pushead Graphics)
- Saigan Terror (Mint) This deck was put out in limited press by Swamp. (Pushead Graphics)

| Tim's Collection |
- Alva - Eddie Reategui - Warrior Mini (Mint) This deck was given to Tim by his bro. I thought it was badass enough to pick one up for myself. (Mad Marc Rude Graphics)
- Alva - Jim Murphy - Eye Rad deck found at a yard sale. I saw an old Alva ad for this deck and Murf signed it 'Live Fast, Skate Ugly!' Murf is now doing Wounded Knee Skateboards.
- Anti-Hero - Vanti-Hero (Mint) Tim is a huge Van Halen fan, so when Anti-Hero released this deck I picked it up and gave it to him for his birthday.
- Bahne - Fibreflex - Green Very Good Condition, ungripped. This was Tim's first skateboard. His uncle had it from the 70s, but never rode it and gave it to him. Complete with 3-hole cadillac trucks, Road Rider IIs. This is a sweet, sweet board.
- Consolidated - Steve Bailey - Blender This deck has awesome art. Its drawn by Neil Blender, and you can definitely tell by looking at it. (Blender graphics)
- Kryptonics - Josh Marlowe - Bomber Josh is an Ocean City Local, which is one of the reasons Tim picked up this deck. Check him out in the Ocean Bowl documentary.
- G&S - Neil Blender - Prayer Neil is one of Tim's favorite artists and skaters so when I came across this deck I couldn't resist gettin it for him. Needless to say Tim had a happy birthday! (Blender graphics)
- Take Skateboards (Mint) Take was a small company from the early 90's out of Memphis, TN. I don't really have much info on them so if you do please drop me a line.
- Conquerer - Viking Warriors This deck is sort of an enigma. It features the Alva Eddie Reategui warrior graphics, but Alva has been changed to Conquerer and Eddie Reategui has been changed to Viking Warriors. It appears to be a toystore deck. I recently saw a similar one with doctored Powell Peralta Ray Barbee Ragman graphics. I traded this deck to Tim for a Tron action figure and Light Cycle.

| Steve's Collection |
- Black Label - Jason Adams - High Noon Punk Point (Mint) Jason Adams has some sick style and he's a total ripper. Black Label put out a couple punk point decks, this one is my favorite graphic.
- Chocolate - Richard Mulder - Motorcycle (Mint) Chocolate is putting out some nice decks, and it is not going unnoticed by Steve.
- Chocolate - Trainyard Series - This is a pretty nice series put out by Chocolate. I'm not sure how many decks there are total, but Steve's got three of 'em.
- Consolidated - Consolidated for Australia (Mint) Deck released only in Australia.
- Consolidated - The One Legged Cardinal Brings Inspiration Does this deck really need an explanation? I think not. Here are the top graphics.
- Death - Scott Bourne - Living Just to Die (Mint) Death Skateboards is a company out of the UK putting out some sweet decks. This is Scott Bourne's first model on Death. Check out their site here.
- Illenium Renegade Series - Steve has 4 of the 5 decks of this series (excluded is the team deck which features a masked man waving a black flag).
- Pool Hustler - Badge (mint) Pool Hustler is rad company out of New Mexico/Texas (I think) that is making big decks a rad shapes. Some come with wheel wells too!
- Pool Hustler - Collage of Badges (mint) Another sweet board from Pool Hustler. This one takes badges from pool manufacturers and puts them all together in a nice collage.
- Pool School - Krispy Kreme (Mint) Pool School is a small company out of Huntington Beach run by Riki Rachtman. That's right, the host of Headbanger's Ball skates pools.
- Raven Skateboards Raven Skateboards was a small company out of California that is now defunct. RIP.
- Scum Skates - Pitchfork (Mint) Also known as the Bladerhater, this is really just an insane deck. Its shaped like a pitchfork and is a longboard (8.3"x37.65"/19"WB), but it is not too much bigger than a normal deck.
- Scum Skates - Sam Hitz - Milwaukee's Beast (Mint) Sam Hitz is a killer skater from Milkaukee, WI and truly is a beast. This guy totally rips pools and anything else in his way.
- Scum Skates - Appetite for Destruction This deck is a PIG! A nice 10" wide. Hooked up with Indy 215s and 60mm Rat Bones.
- Scum Skates - Dave Reul - Texas Scum (Mint) The Reuler hails from Texas and has been ripping pools for quite a long time. This cue features knock off Jack Danial's graphics.
- Scum Skates - Swan Pools (Mint) This deck features the Swan Pools seal on a black background. I think it would look better on a light blue or white background so it would look more like a badge on a pool, similar to the Blue Haven Pools and Pool Hustler decks.
- Silverstar - Matt Reason (Mint) This in one of Steve's favorite decks. Imagine his delight when he walked into a shop recently and found it for sale.
- Skull Skates - Slashdog (mint) One of the newer skull models, this board measures in at 8.75"x34".
- Think - Jake Nunn - Bull (Mint) You can't go wrong with a steer skull, flames, and a Texas flag. This is a rad deck, but not as awesome as his sexy nun deck.
- Western Edition - Nikhil Thayer (Mint) Steve picked this one up in SF too. Nice colors and graphic.
- Blue Haven Pool Cue (Mint) This is definetly a sweet deck. It measures in at 8.875"x33". This deck is made by Mr. Chuck Hults, who has been making decks for over 20 years and has made decks for Sims, Schmitt Stix and Vision, amoung others.
- Deathreat (Mint) This deck was put out by the Portland based band Deathreat.

| Matt's Collection |
- Capital - Bad Brains Years ago my brother used to work for East Coast Urethane and during that time this deck was sent back as having a defect. There is a small crack on the top. My brother saved it from the dump and hung it up. Heres a close up of the graphics.
- Capital - Ryan Hickey - Bombers This deck was warped, and once again, my bro saved it from the garbage can.
- Powell Peralta - Per Welinder - Nordic Skull Street Back when I first starting skating my brother had an XT Bonite Welinder Nordic Skull (Street). Years later I bought this deck for him for his birthday (or maybe Christmas). This one's a 7ply but is the same color scheme as his original.
- Zorlac - Metallica Pirate I got this for my brother to ride. This is one of his (and my) favorite shaped decks. Its slightly different from the other pirate. Now mounted with G&S trucks and Schmitt Stix Ripsaws. (Pushead Graphics)

| Decks We've Traded |
- Alva - Tony Alva - Santa Monica This deck is a total pig. It features some dogtown-like graphics, but the banner says Santa Monica, which is where TA was living at the time.
- Alva - Bill Danforth - Skulls USA (Mint) Bill Danforth is a totally aggro skater out of ohio. This is a nice deck but not as rad as some of his other promodels.
- Consolidated - Scott Bourne - Ugly Man Scott 'Black Arms' Bourne is a hell of a skater. This is one of his older Consolidated models. Scott is now riding for the UK based Death Skateboards.
- Consolidated - Scott Bourne - Death Poem (Mint) This deck is pretty bad ass. Here's a close up of the top graphic. The deck came with a poem and explanation.
- Conspiracy - Jar of Pus (mint) Limited deck with Pushead's 'Jar of Pus' design. This deck was made for Superfesival 20 in Japan and came with this signed postcard. Conspiracy is distro'd by Swamp and put out some sweet decks. (Pushead graphics)
- Dogtown - Micke Alba - Creature - White (Mint) I had a lot of trouble finding out any information on this deck until I found a ad for it in an old Thrasher. The Thrasher is dated around 86 or 87. The deck is advertised as MAlba's street model.
- Dogtown - Micke Alba - Creature - Gold (Mint) MAlba is a total ripper and this is an awesome deck. This is his street model and has a nice DT sticker on top.
- Madrid - Bill Danforth - Misfits (Mint) This deck is punk rock! This is Danforth's first pro model, before he joined the Alva team. It features Danzig (top), Jerry Only (left), and Doyle (right). Here's a close up. Here's a pic of the Danforth and Misfits coffin cut. Why did I ever trade this deck away?!
- Powell - Ratbones Reissue Reissue of Powell's ratbones deck. I love that scene in Future Primitive when Stacy Peralta smashes the TV, pulls this deck out and says "THIS is a skateboard!!"
- Powell Peralta - Steve Caballero - Bones and Bats Classic Cab deck. Steve picked this on up in NC at the Cheeze bowl. (VC Johnson graphics)
- Santa Cruz - Duane Peters (Mint) This is Duane's only model on Santa Cruz without parallel lines. This model features the parallelagram graphic.
- Santa Cruz - Duane Peters (Mint) This is Duane's last Santa Cruz model. Its got a killer pig shape and some standard DP graphics.
- Santa Cruz - Corey O'Brien - Reaper (Mint) This deck has some sick graphics. It was hard letting it go, but Steve at Vintage Skates had too many Zorlacs! (one less now) (Jim Phillips graphics)
- Santa Cruz - Steve Alba - Tiger (Mint) The graphics on this deck are upside down from most decks. The tail is super high, coming up at what seems like 45 degrees.. (Jim Phillips graphics)
- Santa Cruz - Jeff Grosso - Demon This deck features my favorite Jim Phillips graphics. Note the doll featured in his Schmitt Stix Model is ripped apart and lying on the ground. SC put out a slightly different graphic for the sticker. (Jim Phillips graphics)
- Santa Monica Airlines - Julian Stranger - Car (Mint) An awesome deck from a bigtime ditch skater and Anti-Hero frontman.
- Schmitt Stix - Ripsaw Mini (mint) Yet another deck traded off to Vintage Skates. This deck has an awesome shape. If it weren't mint I'd've hooked it up with some saw blades.
- Skull Skates - Tod Swank - Splendor... (mint) Classic graphics and nice shape. These graphics were later slightly manipulated to make the Foundation logo. Here's a close-up. This was definitely a tough one to give up.
- Skull Skates - Dave Hackett - Iron Cross I really like the color scheme on this deck, mostly gray and white but a touch of green in the shading.
- Skull Skates - Wee Boy (mint) This deck is TINY! It was designed for 3-6 year old skaters and measures only 24.5" long. Nice shape and immaculate condition. Here's a close up.
- Zero - Adrian Lopez - Skeletal March (mint) This one was hard to let go, but the Skateboardpimp gave me a great trade. This is one of the few newschool decks that feature Pushead graphics. Lopez managed to get 2 models out with Pushead's artwork. Check out the top graphics. (Pushead Graphics)
- Zorlac - Mark & Barry Abrook - Butterfly (Mint) Some of my favorite Pushead graphics to ever grace a skateboard. This piece is entitled 'The Beauty of the Pain inside.' Here's a close up. (Pushead Graphics)
- Zorlac - Mark & Barry Abrook - Spectre with Ball (mint) This was a really hard deck to give up, but I think the trade was worth it all around. After a couple months without this deck I managed to get one out of Steve at Vintage Skates. (Pushead graphics)
- Zorlac - Mark & Barry Abrook - Spectre (mint) This model came in ramp and street sizes, this being the street size. Both models (including dimensions) are shown in this ad. This one I picked up off Steve at Vintage Skates and then traded back to him a year or 2 later. (Pushead Grahpics)
- Zorlac - Mark & Barry Abrook - Devil Mini (mint) This deck has some pretty sweet graphics. I especially like the zorlac bat near the top. Yet another zorlac I picked up from Vintage Skates. I ended up trading this one back to Steve over at Vintage Skates as well.
- Zorlac - Aaron Deeter - Monkey Stick (mint) Yet another gorey skull graphic pumped out by the master. This graphic looks similar to the Metallica 'Damage, Inc.' design, but this one is much better (and not just 'cause it is printed on a skateboard). Here's a close up. (Pushead Graphics)
- Zorlac - Craig Johnson - Firedemon (Mint) This is a later model of this graphic. It has a background, as well as a nose and double truck holes. Definitely one bad ass board from the king of Texas Plants! Here's that ad for when this graphic first appeared, and here's a close up. (Pushead Graphics)
- Zorlac - Donny Myhre - Alligator (Mint) The most common shape of this model. I traded this away knowing that it wouldn't be too hard to get another.
- Zorlac - Donny Myhre - Alligator (mint) This is an updated shape featuring the same alligator graphic. Here's the ad for when the new shape first appeared. (Pushead graphics)
- Zorlac - Donny Myhre - Purgatory Viking (Mint) This is Myhre's second, and much harder to come by, graphic on Zorlac. At first I wasn't too fond of this graphic but it has started to grow on me. Myhre's gator motif is continued on this model with the gator heads under the viking. This is definitely a unique Pushead graphic. Here's a close up. (Pushead Graphics)
- Zorlac - Post Craig Johnson (mint) This deck was put out after Craig Johnson left the team and features his graphic without his name. It is a one color screen, as opposed to the multi-color one used for his pro model. (Pushead Graphics)
- Zorlac - Metallica Pirate 2 (mint) Another pirate Metallica graphic. I think this is my favorite Metallica graphic that Zorlac put out. (Pushead graphics)
- Zorlac - Sacred Cow (Mint) More appropriately titled the Sacred Pig! I traded this deck away awhile ago and have seen it pop up in many peoples collections.
