Agree, I don't really see the value either... It's just what they go for...
I think it is already around $600. I would put that money towards custom for myself!... My collection is pretty full though... I keep forgetting to sell stuff.

No question, I would go for a 9'6 Redline, pointy nose (pointier than stock). 1/2" red stringer, with finer side stringers, glass on fin... Tagged as a Rincon '68. Undecided on tints... Probably quite plain.... maybe a very weak milky tint, to retain whiteness. Blue fin. Probably a blue cotton inlay and blue tint band like this Neo... *

You do like blue don't you,I was thinking one of his classic's one that changed boards,the redline is a great board but I would go for something with some history.

If you read the text on the Keyo, you will read "Johnny Gill". Johnny is Danny Keyo's son in law.

And this is my Keyo keeper, custom from Johnny.

The 2 boards on the right would have been fun at Bells in the day! Round pins...
Try and imagine 4 of us on those 4 boards at overhead Bells, nobody else out, Summer, 1969.
