Pretty awesome Quane transitional board .
Very fine rails and an overall cool shape
I’ve reached out to Dennis Quane to see if he can remember who shaped this one..
It’s a very similar shape of a John McDermott model I have
I’m thinking either john McDermott or Rod Fawcett …

I haven’t posted up a skateboard for ages
But I recently found a kiwi gem …
A Delta by E M skateboards out of Auckland
And incredibly cool bit of Nz skateboard history from the 1960’s ..
Awesome Kiwi ingenuity on show here the concept of springs and a con-rod to pivot the wheels was out the gate…
E M skateboards were known for their unique trucks .
