Default Powell Quicksilver - Powell finds a few in the basement!

Down in the basement…

Quicksilvers Unearthed

Down in the basement at Skate One sat these extremely rare Quicksilver decks. They have been waiting to find a home for over thirty years.
These are the real deal.
We first offered them to our authorized dealers. What is remaining, we now offer to the public.
  • Five, 90kg Quicksilver decks with a SIMS logo on them.
  • Five, 50kg Quicksilvers.
  • Ninety-five, 81cm Quicktails that were not completely finished. They were completely built but they did not get the tail bent into them. Even rarer than the ones that did get finished.
Some have minor scratches and some have grip tape that is a little off center. Check on Monday afternoon for your chance to get one.
Limit one of any of the three per customer. We reserve the right to refuse any sale.

Hmmm....
...they look really nice.
But maybe I just like retro stuff.

Let's be sure to spread this news around all over the internet as much as possible so that those of us who want one will have lower odds of getting one.

Thanks for posting it Mike.
I have always wanted one of these! Well since 1977 anyways.
Only the 81cm's are left.

Thumbs up Re: Powell Quicksilver - Powell finds a few in the basement!

Yeah, the sales page went hot at noon, and the 81cm boards are $100/each, with a limit of one per person. Here's hoping someone that wants one sees it here and gets it!!

How about a review?
Does anybody here have one of these decks that you ride, or are they just collectors items now?

I gotta admit it, when these things first hit (in Dec 1976 edition of SkateBoarder) I really wanted one...
I finally had a chance to try one a few years ago...
while they are truly cool, I gotta tell ya, today's technology is better....but what talk about being ahead of the curve
personalized, too!
