Valterra may have been a second rate skateboard company but they did make some memorable boards. Someone in the art department had a pretty good sense of humor. The Total Blast deck from 1989 really pops in some of these color ways. This is simultaneously pretty bad and also pretty good, depending on your mood.

Here’a third color way found in random old auctions. Unfortunately they did not include a full shot of the bottom of the board. The artwork is so busy I missed that this was a different board at first. The giveaway is the solid color in sweater.
Here’s another old auction. It’s hard to tell if this is a fourth color way or just a faded version of the first one.
Looks like the board originally came in a box labeled “Street Stick.” Check ou the quality on those plastic trucks.
Who’s got one of these? Send in some better pics of some of these color ways if you do.
