Your first "real" skateboard is something that you always remember. I've had a gajillion in the last 20+ years, but I can tell you that my first was an Alva Eddie Reatigue with Gullwing trucks and Rat Bones wheels.

One of the sickest things for me at the shop is helping kids pick out their first board. Yesterday was a bright eyed kid named Dawson who according to his dad "worked really hard and got a good report card".  Today was 10 yr old Devin. Its his birthday so he got a board and some new sneaks too. Thought I'd snap a picture to commerate this moment. Shred the rad young ones!!

I remember my first board too, it was a Stevie Cab with indy trucks and rat bones wheels. Powell was the big thing back then. Ahhh, the good old days!
