Reader Owen Williams sent these pics of yard sale find in New Zealand. He paid the equivalent of $50 for this. Check out the wood inlays on this deck.
Having some technical difficulties, should be rectified soon.

I’ve never seen one like that. It almost looks like
the inlay on top was done post-production. The bottom
is pretty generic in comparison. Used to be able to find
stuff like that around here. Nice

I have 2 of these, a distributor in the UK had a stack BITD. Each had a different inlay on them some truly beautiful wood working. The trucks on the one shown here are much later than the ones I have, which are a more generic 70s truck.

Taperflex were a waterski manufacturer hence all the beautiful inlays

My first wide board (9″) was a Sims TaperKICK with a beautiful and pointless vertical laminate top and bottom (1979). Anyone know who did this first?

Beautiful indeed.
