Pintail Longboard Appraisal

Sector 9 Pintail Longboard

This is a Sector 9 pintail longboard, a classic design characterized by its elongated, teardrop-shaped deck that tapers significantly at the rear. The deck is constructed from laminated maple wood, featuring a black grip tape surface on the top side. A distinct vertical natural wood stripe runs down the center of the board, interrupted by a circular graphic logo typical of the Sector 9 brand, which includes a city skyline silhouette. The board is equipped with wide, green-colored polyurethane wheels extending from the sides, mounted on traditional longboard trucks. In terms of condition, the item shows significant signs of heavy use and wear. There is notable peeling and loss of grip tape at the nose (top edge), exposing the underlying light-colored wood. The grip tape surface exhibits extensive scuffing, dirt accumulation, and discoloration. Edges show impact wear consistent with skating. The overall style suggests a mid-2000s to 2010s era production, designed primarily for cruising or carving rather than technical tricks. The craftsmanship is typical of high-quality mass-produced skateboards from established industry leaders.
