Hey all, I recently picked up a classic Skip Frye in really good unrestored condition and I’m trying to learn a bit more about it. Looks to be from the mid 70’s maybe up to early 80’s and more of a gun outline compared to his eggs which I’ve seen more of. No color and not very yellowed at all, you can see the fin patch outline.
It’s 7’0 and about 19.25" w x 2.75" th. Tail is 12.5" @ 12", nose is 13.25" @ 12" and the widepoint is about 6" up from center. It definitely has a volume forward outline with a mild beak nose, slight belly in the front 2/3 and thin turned down back 1/3. The serial is 9036 and there are no logos or writing other than that, written on top, the wings logo on top, and the signed penciled wings on bottom. Has what looks like an original era Raindbow 7.5" fin and even an old school leash.
I haven’t ridden it yet and will likely end up selling as I don’t think I’d end up riding it much.
Thanks for any info!
