The Ben Lexcen Skate Wing has become quite the pricey vintage collectible. This is an absolute collectors item.
Vintage SKATEWING skateboard from Australia. The skateboard was designed by Australian yachtsman Ben Lexcen in the 80’s. He was the yachtsman and marine architect that designed the “winged keel” that was applied to the “Australian II” which, in 1983, became he first non-American yacht to win the prestigious “America’sCup” in 132 years.
The skateboard is all original and used, and in fair condition for its age. We are guessing the Madrid Skateboards sticker was the shop it was originally purchased.
The timber deck size is officially listed as 33″ long x 30″ wide however we measure it as a complete approx 85cm long x 90cm wide by 31cm tall. It has all original ” B52 SKATEWING- B52 Wing Commander” wheels and they measure 2 3/8″ in diameter x 2″ wide.
