Santa Cruz has to be the king of novelty products, with all the giant foot-shaped boards, screaming hand oven mitts and the like. Now they’re adding some mostly brilliant executions of Simpsons themed skateboards. Bart’s board is great, the Roskop parody and Duff liquor store cruisers are pretty good too, but the Homer Simpson board is weak. To offset that they’ve included a Duff static wrap can cover, which they ought to sell singularly. Overall, though, an awesome idea, if only they had thought of it 15 years ago. Bart Simpson has to be the most popular cartoon character to be featured with a skateboard in it’s original context as well as with merchandising. It’s about time he got a real board.

I kinda like the shape of the Homer board. if you rode it’s head side as the tail, and it was less money bumpish. it’s almost like a stinger popsicle. it looks like the functional board of the bunch

it’s about time Santa Cruz made a real board too.
Living on the ashes of a glorious past prevents innovation.
Too baaaaad.
