Vintage Nash Goofy Foot “Sidewalk Surfer” Skateboard (1960’s, Early Mass-
Produced Board, California)
Here we have the ‘Goofy Foot Sidewalk Surfer’ from NASH. One of the original,
mass produced skateboards of the late 1960s. This was sold in toy stores and marketed to kids as a
toy. The plastic wheels and metal ball bearings made riding dangerous and only the skilled rider
could perform tricks or rode downhill with any success. It wasn't until 1970 with the introduction of
the urethane wheel by Frank Nasworthy, that skateboarding became a legitimate competition sport.
The urethane wheel provided a smooth ride and enabled skaters to go faster and maneuver the
skateboard in ways they couldn’t with the cumbersome metal, clay or plastic wheel.
The Board Measures roughly 22.75"L x 5 1/4"W x 3 1/2"H
Considering it’s age and implied usage, the board is in fairly good shape, but there are no shortage
of small character marks and dents strewn all around the board from riding the concrete waves roughly 60 years ago.
The most noticeable mark is the roughly 2” chip near the bottom left of the board. The paint has remained in
good shape. There are cracks on the bottom of the board. The name “Jean Marie” is written on the
bottom of the board in what appears to be red crayon. Half of the original factory sticker on the
bottom is ripped off, but you can see some of the text. Wheels appear original, and nicely worn.
Trucks appear in good shape, screws do not look rusted.
Please closely examine all photographs as they are an extension of our thorough descriptions. We
aim for transparency and ask you not to hesitate if you have any further questions on the condition
of the item.
