Bugs, errors, glitches… Expect all of this and more as we roll out a new site design in bits and pieces as it is evolving, instead of completing it all at once like a sane person would.
Skate and Annoy: Daily
Skateboard World August 1978
30 ads from the August, 1978 issue of Skateboard World have been added to the Vintage Skateboard Magazine Ad gallery. It’s a pretty thin issue for 1978, with only 76 pages. A few of the standouts include an all female cast in an ACS trucks ad called “Girls Get Radical Too…“, Starstick, Lazer Truck Stabilazers, and a Vision ad featuring a pro model for 7 year old kid named, Aaron Wienenga. The deck is supposed to be “designed for the younger rippers of today!” The picture of the deck does not have his name on it anywhere, so who knows if it was just a prototype for an idea that they never committed to. A quick google search turns up nothing.
Nash Peanut Board
PHOTOS NEEDED! I can’t find any pictures of this peanut shaped skateboard made by Nash anywhere, except for this scan of a JCPenney catalog from 1987. The only reason I can tell it’s made by Nash is the product listing says it has XR-2 trucks. Image searches return a thousand Peanuts™ boards, and “Peanut shaped skateboard” gives you Nutter Butter and Rollo skateboard cookies.
