Introduction I am a collector of original skateboards from the early 80’s to mid 90’s. My collection includes boards from Zorlac, World Industries, Santa Monica Airlines, Skull Skates, Powell Peralta, Santa Cruz, Plan B, and Madrid. With board manufacturing dates ranging from 1 983 (Zorlac,  Craig Johnson Voodoo Doll) to 1993 (Plan B, Danny Way Shotgun). This blogs focus is specifically on Zorlac skateboards.
