Back in the 70s, surfboard shapers used leftover fiberglass to make small skateboards. Globe has teamed with iconic shaper Eden Saul of Dead Kooks on a modern version of this time-honoured craft. This limited edition all-fiberglass deck is paired with narrow Tensor™ trucks and all-new RetroFlex wheels for a modern-day technological spin on a yesteryear classic.
This will be an extremely limited release, with a numbered edition of only 55 skateboards.
Technical details: 24″ x 6.125″ x 14″ WB, featuring 3.5″ Tensor alloy trucks with hollow kingpin & hollow axle, 58mm RetroFlex 85a wheels in clear green haze and clear broadcast grip inset on a semi-translucent Fibercarve construction deck with a mellow concave.
