It looks similar to, but is not identical to this one.

We’ve got the strength to give him the confidence!

Two years ago the boys down here at the B.S.C. started riding polyprops. Now we bring you the experience we have gained in a range of boards, equipment and accessories chosen to keep up with the pace of today’s skateboarding. Whether you are lucky enough to have had a skatepark built in your neighbourhood or not, we have the goods that will give you the confidence to go for the most radical manoeuvres – and pull them off – with style.

All the equipment we sell has been fully tested for performance and reliability by the B.S.C. teams (both male and female!) – and they only give their o.k. to the very best. By keeping our ears to the ground we can bring you the latest U.S. equipment the second it is available in the U.K. We have also been involved in the design of the most up-to-date British products: the ‘Hot Dog’ decks, RHP 575′ trucks and ‘Avon Booster’ wheels were all conceived down here in Bristol and wanting to look after our bodies as well as we look after our boards we pulled in a top clothes designer to add ‘Style’ to our ideas on protection. Look out for the new Skateline pads, Bomber Jackets and Skateshorts. The girls call it their ‘Evening Wear’ – it’s chic and safe.

And now for some bad news: We are sorry to say that we can’t charge you the highest prices for the gear that we sell. By leading the field in both retail and wholesale, we can afford to save you a whole lot of money.

Just send a S.A.E. for our ‘Bumper’ Mail Order Catalogue and see for yourselves!!
