Is this OG?
Has the old hole pattern, Indy stage 5's, G Bones in 95a and roman numeral date of 1987 on the deck. Razored tail and edges are a bit beaten but no delams, splits or cracks. Wheels are slightly coned, trucks no grinds

Seems cheap to me?
Yes that is OG. It’s a full size too! Most of the reissue D&B are the street size.
The tail kick seemed too curved, like modern air-lam pressing, was expecting a sharper sudden rise.
But figured everything else was in sync with OG.
Very similar to a Madrid I have from the same era.

and the trucks are 127's on a 8.15-8.25
why the hell did people used to put such narrow trucks on wider boards? it feels like topsy turvy crap
the good is the bearings washed out good except for one with a broken cage
and I'm ready to learn to ollie properly
so wanted a cheap deck I can wear out quickly with non stop constant ollie-ing,, so all good
Tactics bio on LE Life Extension was that slap called it a place for ex pros to die
and since the domain name is up for sale
it looks like LE succumbed to life ending
