Yeah my first board was a nash too. That thing was the cause of many scrapes scratches and bruises, but man oh man, do chicks ever dig Skater guys with battle scars!

you guys are lucky. my first board was a clear red banana board....for real(by the way, i'm only 22). then i got the wood color nash with the saw design. but i got lucky for christmas and got the veraflex. it sucked cause my friend got a powell perolta(sp) at the same time.

Man I remember those boards, but I really was a skateboarder when I was younger. Doing ollie over other skateboards. I remember the board being being wider and having nothing for the nose. I also remember wiping out and having a rock in my hand. Gross stuff.
