Were you looking at selling your Kingpin? Which size is it, and is it an icon or just a regular one?

Thanks,
Wil

The 88 weighs less, has a better edge and better pop for looping.

gh,
Not sure when you will know if you are going to sell to it, but I am definitely interested in a 6.3 icon. I live down in Pueblo, so this would make it easier also. Definitely let me know if you get serious about selling it, but it will probably be too late as I am going up to the boat swap up in BV this weekend to look at getting a surf boat.
Thanks,
Il

Sorry just got your message. I already have plans on hitting the BV swap. If I don't find anything I like, I will definitely give you a call.

Thanks,
