Bar-O-Simmons

Postby waikikikichan » Fri Apr 05, 2019 4:11 am

Got my new board shaped, glassed and sanded by one man by hand Todd Pinder. He did a great job with fabric inlay. He doesn’t call it a Mini-Simmons or a Bar of Soap, but I like to call it Bar-O-Simmons. It’s set up as twin only, like it should be.

The gold glitter really shines.

Congrats on the new sled! What are the dims? Looks like 5'3" x 22" x 2-something (3/8?, 5/8?). Looking forward to hearing how it works.

Good eye. “What size do you want ?” My answer, “ME !” So 5’3” it is.

Gorilla Grip made a few different skull designs in the past but not sure if you can find 'em still.
