When is the last time you found any OG Swiss bones in a set of old wheels?

Item Notes:• This deck is the REAL DEAL, one of a kind skateboard. Not only is this a complete Mike Mcgill set up used by McGill, but was actually used in police academy 4!• This is 100% Genuine Prop / Custom Factory Powell Peralta. This skateboard is guaranteed to pass any test of authenticity that is was Used by Mike Mcgill in Police Academy 4.• This was given to the art director of the police Academy movies by Mike Mcgill. He was a longtime skateboarder and possibly even the reason the Bones Brigade had a cameo in the movie.• You can actually clearly identify this skateboard in a few shots during the Skateboard scene. • After watching the Skateboard Scene you can tell why the board has a lot of wear on the left side of tail. In one scene they are going down a parking garage and I’m sure it was used as a break on that side of the board going in a consistent circle down.
Condition Details:You can see the exact condition details in the photos included. The graphics are in excellent condition, it looks and display great. This colorway is extremely rare, one of the hardest to find. I personally love the Black Base / Red hanger Tracker Sixtracks, he also used same trucks in gleaming the cube. The Crossbones wheels have a decent amount of wear With only a few sides legibly displaying the text on wheel. The main wear on this board is the top left of nose in the bottom right of tail. You can tell this would have been from the tracks performed during the film. He was doing aerials off of a jump which would definitely cause the nose to plunge down. The side of tail has wear which would have been caused from going down to the parking garage Circle, exact spot board would’ve been used as brakes.
Grail Deck It is safe to say this is definitely a grail board. I mean how many people actually have a board that was used by the pro in their collection… Only a small handful. Since this was not only a complete skateboard owned & used by Mike Mcgill but was also used in Police Academy 4 this is one of the best boards I’ve ever found... and have obtained a great contact.There is no losing with this one! This is a great investment… With a visit to Mcgill‘s shop and signature/authenticity from Mcgill you could get probably double the asking price. All I can say is this is 100% the real deal and exactly as I described. These ORIGINAL Powell Peralta Skateboards have always a SOLID investment and have continuously increase in value over the years. Like mentioned you can’t find a Powell Peralta Complete that was previously used by the pro anywhere. Most collectors with a deck like this tend to hold onto them / hoard them in collection.
You definitely won’t be letdown with this item. This is a one-of-a-kind deck that you’ll never get the chance to buy again. I will safely package this board for shipping it will all arrive exactly as pictured. Please refer to the pictures for the exact item and its condition.
