Sims Early 80s Vintage Pro Snowboard
This all original Sims snowboard is made of five ply wood with no metal edges. The painted base is pre ptex and the bungee binding pre straps. The board is in fair to good condition overall.
The base is wood with red paint approximately 10% of the paint is scratched off. Base also has a period correct Sims sticker on the nose. There have been repairs to the tail fin and old wax is still applied. The topsheet is in good condition with all original decals and raised Sims wing pro emblem in the correct places. There are 4 period correct stickers that have been added to this board. Including a rare Del Mar skate ranch sticker.
The Tom Sims signature (R.I.P.) is authentic and original. All the golf cleat traction pins are original and complete. Heavy duty grip tape pads are complete and original. Rubber bungee board bindings and hardware are complete and original straps are still pliable and soft.
The stainless steel fins are original, straight, and clean. The only thing on this board that is not original is one of the fin mounting nuts and bolts. These five ply boards are extremely rare and even rarer without modifications.

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!
