Throw it back to the wild west of skating with this original 1970s MPI Kick Tail Mini—the kind of board that lit the fuse for everything we shred today. This was born in the sketchy crossover days when dudes were ditching clay wheels and steel trucks, chasing speed on urethane, and figuring out what skateboarding could really be. Pure garage-built, surf-style chaos—fiberglass and grit slapped together for kids who didn’t care about rules, only progression.

At 6.5″ wide x 25″ long with an 11″ wheelbase, this thing was compact, fast, and twitchy—perfect for carving sidewalks, bombing ditches, and blasting tight turns. Fiberglass gave it snap and strength that wood just couldn’t touch back then, and the built-in textured grip meant no sloppy tape—just raw lines and that slick fiberglass sheen under your feet.

This isn’t some museum piece—it’s the DNA of modern skateboarding, still screaming with the same energy it had when it first hit the streets.

Step back into the golden era of skateboarding with this original 1970s MPI Kick Tail Mini—a piece of history that shaped the way we ride today. Built during the transition from clay wheels and steel trucks to urethane-fueled progression, this board represents the gritty DIY roots of skate culture.

Sized at 6.5″ wide x 25.0″ long with an 11″ wheelbase, this compact ripper was designed for speed, tight turns, and surf-style flow.

The fiberglass construction gave it strength and snap that wood just couldn’t deliver at the time, while the integrated textured grip surface eliminated the need for traditional grip tape—keeping the sleek lines and raw fiberglass finish intact.

The kicktail design was revolutionary in its day, giving riders the leverage to lift the front end, snap turns sharper, and open the door to the tricks that would define the future of street and freestyle skating. Lightweight yet tough, the MPI Mini became a go-to deck for groms and rebels looking to push boundaries in empty pools, ditches, and freshly paved streets.

Each board has its own unique marbled finish, making every single one feel like a custom piece of skate history. This isn’t just a board—it’s a time capsule from the 1970s skate explosion.

MPI Old School

MPI Skateboards – 1970s Roots

MPI was one of the underground brands turning out fiberglass and laminated decks in the 1970s, right when skateboarding was exploding from a surf-inspired fad into its own culture. Their boards captured that transitional moment between clay wheels and steel trucks into the urethane boom, when everything suddenly got faster, smoother, and gnarlier.

The MPI Kick Tail Minis and cruisers are considered collectible today, not just because of how rare they are, but because they represent the gritty experimental era when skateboarding was still figuring itself out. For riders, these boards delivered speed and flex that wood couldn’t match in their time. For collectors, they’re pure time capsules of skate culture on the edge of invention.
