Rules?! There are no rules here. Anything you consider "old school". Wood, fiberglass, plastic, whatever. Don't be shy. I'll put up some pics of my Hydroslide Magna soon.
Classic = anything as old as Dogbert. Did they have skis back then?
Hey kids. If anyone has set of old school extra wide woodies with the old bindings (I'm talking screw on plastic kind of stuff) I may be interested in buying them. I'm an older dude w/ size 16 feet and I want to do more than drive. (I have heard all of the barefoot, battleship etc. jokes, so spare us all the comedy..... )
Seriously, pm me if you have something interesting. TJR

So, my 1990 vintage HO Magnum Comp sounds like it would qualify. It's not quite as old as me, but it's close.

That counts in my book.
I think in this day and age classic is a pretty loose term. Hell our boats (mine and yours) are pretty much classics with the difference between them and the new ones.
You made this thread just so you could show off your EP Comp 1 didn't you?
haha jerk.. jk
Ha ha. Sorry dude. It's actually a thread that I've been wanting to start for a while. I've kept every ski or board I've ever had and I dig on showing them off.
I finally talked my step dad into giving me his old HO Turbo. Unfortunately, he can't remember what happened to his Obrien World Team. He says it went with the old Sea Swirl when they sold it. I, however, know that is not the case. When they sold it, my mother told me to come and take whatever I wanted out of it. I cleaned that thing out. A couple of weeks later, we saw the Sea Squirrel out on the water with the new owners. I pulled up to them and said, "Hey there. Nice boat. It used to be my parents boat." The woman in the front of the boat replied, "Oh, are you Nick?" "Yeah, that's me." "You F***ER! You took all the skis!" Apparently, they sold the boat with skis, ropes and vests included. I said, "Sorry. My Mom said I could come and take whatever I wanted out of it. Enjoy the boat. See ya."
I dont have a pix, but I have
1984-5 HO Graphite T1 and a 84/85 HO Mach 1.
They are still in case and hanging in the garage..it's a shame I started boarding.
