Didn't even the old MBS boards have "MBS" either on the axles and/or the tops of the bindings? Just curious....

You see that the strap is broken !!!! The straps look like old MBS.

If that is MBS it is old and the straps are no good. That one isn't worth too much !

I'd stay away from it. the ambush was more of a kids board. depending on your weight it might work but I believe they had smaller wheels, crappy trucks and a cheap deck and bindings when compared to the true MBS boards.

if its less then $75 bucks it might be worth picking up but any more then that and you should be able to find a much better board for the same money.

btw Bloah has a Core 95 forsale on here. I have the same board and I love it!
