darrengray Posted August 30, 2004 Report Posted August 30, 2004 cattapult boards rock i have the grind 128 i love it and my mate has th ah pro modle that rocks 2 get one nowto be correct as jellyman is talkin about me i havnt got the cattapult aronhadlow pro this is the 1 with the cartoon graf he rode for ages ive got the ah special wich is a limited edition board (ive since been told) coz it was going to be the new ah cattapult for 04 its not the standard cartoon graphics on the bottom its got a really cool design ask jellyman its hard to explain but its the initials AH with angel wings either side ive not seen it since i got it coz shortly after i got it cattapult vanished and flexi bought out the hadlow pro . maybee i should stop rideing it and hold on to it for value now he is world champ can get pics if anybody wants to see but as jellyman says its def cattapult rides like a dream i love it but theres a price for everything and its immaculate (sorry about pic quality its froma camera phone as i dont wn a dig cam) Quote
