power paw

POWER PAWS new shapes and compound have a use for all types of skateboarding. The Paws are precision made in three special designs.

BIG PAW, the largest of the Power Paw line, is an extremely fast wheel for varied types of surfaces. It’s precision stability adapts itself well to downhill runs, pool walls, and bank riding. The exclusive “Flex Edge” gives the wheel a sure steady grip. The LARGE wheel is the best “all around” performer in freestyle, banking, bowls, and stalom racing. It is precision built to give the wheel a long lifespan and retains an excellent speed performance.

The FREESTYLE wheel gives a very fast roll, yet maintains the needed traction for freestyle maneuvering and performance. Do it as only the pros know how to do it, get the grip and speed on the surface with Power Paws. Your best investment to the winners circle

pacer

Dave Dillberg uses PACERS on his specially designed boards. Using the most advanced technology at I.D.I., Dave set a new speed record at the 1977 Signal Hill Speed Run at Long Beach, with an amazing downhill run record of 57 m.p.h.. Developed over 2½ years in the downhill racing circuit, the Pacer’s precision large bearings and special fast grip formula make it an extremely fast, stable wheel. The exclusive design of the bearing alignment adapter sleeve places the bearings and wheel in perfect alignment with each other to produce a performance unmatched in any wheel. It’s no wonder more and more top pro skaters are riding on Pacers… shouldn’t you? Get the original PACER.

92 pages. Jerry Valdez on cover photo by Stan Sharp. Other photographers include Bill Sharp, Mac McKinley, and Vic Volinecs. Features include "Pro File” on Rebecca Williams, dessert pipe skating, Catalina completion, A Jill Sherman article warning about the impact of an L.A. Times article on skateboard dangers and accidents, assorted photos., the new Oxnard skatepark, and "New Faces” profiles on Anthony Madrona, Wendy Bedell, Tony Harnell, and Steve Ruffin. The copy these scans were sourced from was pretty beat up; 4 pages had a section cut out, and the back cover is completely missing.
