  What's up insiders? One of the most common questions I get in the community revolves around which Tech Deck boards are the most collectible, or hardest to find. Today, I'm going to show off the rarest single pack Tech Decks ever released.

  These Gold and Platinum Dipped Boards in 2011 are available for Plan B and DGK brands. They've been produced in very limited quant.ities, and will be made available at various times through the year.

  
  

  So what does this mean? First and foremost, if you happen to spot one at your local retail store, make sure you grab it immediately! Due to their rarity, these boards are definitely a collector's item. Whether you collect Tech Deck boards already or you're more on the side of serious fingerboarding, it's definitely worthwhile to pick these up when you spot them.

  
  

  To the same point, whenever you're at a retail store, I'd definitely recommend swinging by the Tech Deck section just to see if they have these boards on shelves. The average customer may not know about these and how rare they are, so as a bonafide Tech Deck community insider, take advantage of your knowledge and check for these often.

  
  

  If you already have one of these rare boards, please post and share with the rest of the community! And if you get one in the coming months, please do the same. One of my favorite things about writing these insider articles is being able to give our dedicated Tech Deck fans the best opportunity to pick up our cool new boards. Hopefully, this info helps you snag a Gold or Platinum Dipped Tech Deck!
