The nineties exploded as a time of growing change in skateboarding. Big-time events and sponsorships introduced a lifestyle most skaters had never seen before. The original Gold Brand deck design perfectly captured the flair and glamor of the time and were skated to great effect by Flips’ original team, featuring at legendary events like Radlands along the way.
Faithfully hand screen printed as continuation boards on the original design of 90’s Prime mellow concave, these will go fast as they were produced at the special request of some of Flips’ most avid collectors.

Hand screened decks are intentionally left with sloppy ink edges because that’s how the originals were done. Scraping with blades cleans up the edges but then the graphics look more similar to heat transfers which they are certainly not. The occasional dragged edge within the graphic art print is normal too. These are 100% screen printed by hand the old way. The Prime blanks were also completely remanufactured for us by hand and as such have some imperfections with drilled holes and some surface irregularities.
