He had a "Sly Fox" seat clamp. They were made by a bloke from Milton Keynes and he gave one to Ron at the Kellogg's. There werent many made, and I cant see many of them being left. Most of them were all hand painted, with patterns on them.
The guy behind Sly Fox went on to start Deathbox skateboards, which changed the name to Flip. In the early 90s Flip took over the US Skate scene with a mainly British team. He now lives in California, and is MINTED!
