I think that's what they made the first street issues out of!

LOVE the Hobie Decks!!! Especially the old hard to ride wood decks 1965-73-ish... But the woodwork was cutting edge design IMHO.... Hobie Weaver deck I think was their first model to come out with better wheels and trucks... 1st series ACS and sweet RR2 size Hobie Wheel or Power Paw!! Fully threaded axle those ACS 430s were.... cheers III

Latest! NOS Hobie Park Machine 27" rocker. Top is a little scuffed but the bottom is clean. Set up with near new Hobie XX wheels, the fronts have darkened a little more than the back wheels. and NOS ASC580 trucks.

Here's some stickers: And some padding: Tony Does anyone have any Hobie helmets like the one in the picture or any other 70s /80s helmets such as free former or cooper helmets for sale??

Well i'm learning a whole lot about this board, now that i chose to sell it I had a good collection of 60's 70's 80's early 90's boards. I'm down to 1 sims and 1 hobie. Feel free to check it out on Ebay. Also if anyone can give me any info on this board or the sims it would be great.

Looks like I got the pic posting thing figured out. Newb here on BDS. You can check my intro. Thought I'd start with my Hobie's. Here's a 27" Hobie Competition, ACS 500 Trucks, Hobie Wheels and homebrew grip job:
