Skate Quiver



PC.

No, not as in politically correct, but as in Paul Constantineau. Check out the reprint of his original "Who's Hot" blurbage from Skateboarder Mag and some great pics HERE . PC was the one with the style y'all.

This is my PC Tailtap from Dogtown Skates, one of the first laminates they ever shipped. Again, the Bike Pedlar on West End Ave. was skate central in Nashvegas in the 70's, and that's where we convened to wait on the UPS guy. I'm sure he thought we were crazy.

What a great stick this was to bang in the ditch over on Fatherland Ave. The set-up in the day was Tracker Mid-Tracks with red Tunnel Rocks (!) or Full-Tracks and white Yo-Yo Pro's. The tail-slide is a MURF's Super Pivot. Currently it's running Indy 159's and some Spitfire Salba's and it feels great, like an old friend. The graphics have always been fixed with Sharpie's from day one, back some ten-thousand days ago.

This PC has seen many-a-mile and yet still seems modern, kind of like Jeff Beck always seems modern. I love that shit.

Skate hard.
