VINTAGE VANCOUVER SKATE HISTORY: NICO WEIS ON HEAD HONCHO! 🛹🍁🔥
Today’s vintage skateboard ad takes us straight back to the wild early days of Canadian skateboarding, featuring Vancouver skater Nico Weis flying the flag for Head Honcho from Northwest Skateboards! 🇨🇦⚡
This one is pure time-capsule gold: Olympic-styled promo energy, classic maple construction, mail-order pricing, old-school wheel wells, full deck tape, and that unmistakable late-70s “the future is now” skateboard sales pitch. Before skateboarding had Olympic medals, it already had the dream, the graphics, the attitude, and Vancouver riders charging hard. 🛹🔥🍁
A killer piece of local skate history from a time when Canadian skateboard companies were building their own scene, their own teams, and their own legends one board at a time.
🍁🛹🔥 Vintage ad. Vancouver rider. Canadian skate roots. Head Honcho forever! 🔥🛹🍁
