Vintage Gar Skis Snowboard
This board has an unknown production year made by Gar Skis out of Santa Cruz, California. Most likely the early 1980’s. It has a foam and fiberglass construction. It also has a normal fishtail cut in the tail.. It’s 50” long and 11” at its widest point.
The base has two molded fixed fins and two channels that run down 60% of the base . The topsheet with the exception of a few air bubbles in the finish, appears to be in mint condition and has never had bindings or any traction devices attached to it.
It has not been cleaned in over 25 years if it was cleaned it would look brand new with no damage.

Collectors, please note, Salty Peaks Snowboard Shop has a mission statement to document and preserve snowboard history and does not engage in the selling of vintage snowboards from the Utah Snowboard Museum. Most of the boards on this site are privately owned and priced according to rarity and condition. In most cases, they are not intended to sell but to educate fellow collectors of the more rare and hard to find snowboards out there, along with potential value of such boards. Prices are set to discourage purchase, but as time catches up to value, these prices may not seem so far off in the future. If you are interested in selling a board of this caliber, please contact the curator of the Utah Snowboard Museum, Dennis Nazari. If you are in need of period correct bindings, parts, or hardware, also contact the museum for availability; or 801-273-8770
Happy hunting and enjoy!
