i know nothing about them so cant really answer other than when i first saw it i thought some kid had stencilled it like you say and it could be absolutley anything?

See review in Skateboard magazine No3 Skata Data page 34
It was the green grip tape and angle of kicktail which reminded me of Conways offering.

It’s only more recently I became aware of Conways roots in surf board manufacture.

Never heard of these obviously a decent thing

haut have been around for donkeys yrs,shame it doesnt have a matching pr of "baker sig" trucks though i think the pricing is rather optimistic though

[Itsonlymoney!!!]

A couple of years ago that deck would have possibly made that money especially if had the matching trucks, but 45rpm on Instagram did an officially approved but limited rerelease a while back which probably satisfied most people.

Pete Gifford was an awesome skater but I always Lusted after the earlier Haut rocker deck which was advertised with split grip job trackers and white bones, I wanted it so muck I bought a Pacer Catalina which was the next best thing and all you could get in the U.K.

I see there have been a few more reissues since then, lovely decks too. https://www.longboarderlabs.com/brand/haut-lamaflex/

i can see why you wanted the rocker,it looks so good in that advert

Posting this here as I’m not sure it’s Benjy related , but as you flick through the photos of this ridiculously priced Gary Lee deck does the other 70’s board on the floor have Benjy boots on it possibly even a Benjy Lolipop or am I delusional

[punkboy]

dont think so,those look to have a flatter face,boots are more tapered into the bearing area ,mad money indeed

[Itsonlymoney!!!]

I had the later ones with plastic caps they were decent enough
