I didn’t make any posts on Black Friday, but this works better for Cyber Monday since you might have a hard time finding this in an actual shop. So why not pick up this limited edition Skull and Candy Cane board that is not actually a Blind send up, but something the folks at Powell Peralta cooked up. Out of character? Perhaps. Santa Cruz and Powell appear to be engaged in some sort of protracted nostalgia trench warfare. Get yours at SoCal Skateshop and elsewhere, I’d imagine.

At least they rendered this one to look consistent with the rest of the graphic. Remember last years Santa hat on the Ripper….

Commercialism IS Christmas, only way to sell out is to buy in!
The Blind variant with the banana, I thought that was so great back in the day. Still have a t-shirt of that graphic. If the banana version never happened, and Blind did a candy cane back in 1991 instead… think we’d all have a different spin on this one.
I like it, I’m not all that crazy about christmas, but if you’re gonna whore out your aging identity. May as well have fun with it.

Yuck. Christmas commercialism crap. I’m listening to “I Don’t Believe in Santa Claus,” the Crass parody by the new Vandals.

these are absolutely hideous. The folks there lost have lost their damned minds. The camera one was bad enough but this is just awful.
And yes, Stacy has been back w/ Powell for sometime now, but just for the reissue stuff. That’s why the reissues all say Powell Peralta now where they used to just say Powell.

I heard Stacy Peralta is involved with Powell again?
Those Ray Bones snub nose models were awesome, but you didn’t want to do any tricks where you grabbed the nose unless you wanted a finger jam or a wheel burn.
