If you look very closely, here is a rare sighting of a Ripstick in the wild, not sure why there is an FBI agent in the background though 😂

Picked this very dusty bitsa set up off Ebay, bits of this bits of that

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/358759627413

Don’t think I remember “Panther Boards” unless they are related to Panther Wheels which I do remember the ads for

But looking help identifying this truck 8” truck hangar which I believe to be 70’s due to the rest of the set up.

2 Alva FLATBACK
2 Powerflex 9’s
29x7.5 deck

Also somebody correct me but are these the pointier 8” Lazer baseplates rather than the slalom ones.

Will probably trade or sell some bits of this if anyone’s interred, but keeping the deck and would like to end up with one matching set of wheels

ill try my best lol,the lazer base plates are just the standard revised ones,not 8" versions
as for the hanger i think its a very rare skitch hitchcock one,they made 3 diff trucks i think,the small freestyle ones were completely different but the wider ones look identical to yours,they are that rare i could only find a couple of pics so hope that helps you
