6 wheels, three aces
The Cami Three Aces (Tres Assi) model, a six wheeled, three truck plastic skateboard made in Italy at some point in the late 70’s or early 80’s most likely. Actullay, that top graphic makes me think it’s 80’s or possibly even later. I’ve been on the lookout for the six wheeled plastic skateboard as seen in this post. I think the side by side truck configuration is more rare. I’ve seen the three aces configuration on more recent boards. And then there’s the Wheelie Board. Finding a 6 wheeled plastic skateboard on the internet is tough, you’ll turn up endless Penny board knockoffs and collections of regular wheels without an actual board. So who knows if I’ll ever find the right one. Meanwhile, what about the Three Aces? Pretty damned cool, although $200 bucks is a steep price for a plastic board, but it is pretty rare. What I need is more disposable income.
– Thanks to David ODK for the tip.
That thing looks Russian, not Italian. Pretty cool though.
Actually there’s been 6-wheel set-up’s like this used in Giant Slalom contests in recent past. There was a bit of controversy with the racers using this set-up. The extra 2 wheels in the back provide lots of traction.
Did it help any? seems like the extra friction would result in an overall slower time.
Forgot to link to this six wheeler too.
Hey, if you’re still interested in one of these, I think I could get you one for half the above cost. It’s missing the sticker and the wheels would probably have to be changed if you’d want to ride it though.
