$120 bucks will get you a Snap foldable skateboard that looks like a Tony Hawk Ride video game controller. It’s not the first time we’ve seen the concept, but maybe the first time it’s actually being somewhat mass produced. It is just now on the market and really awesome! It is alluring, revolutionary, unparalleled and a new idea! It is foldable, invincible, affordable, cool and saves money! So we know there is no way these guys are going out of business, so there’s absolutely no need to archive the pictures……. Video after the jump. UPDATE: Added video showing folding action, etc… – Thanks to John Aguilar for the tip.

This week in random French road signs, brought to you by sa ka roulé. Soon, young padawan.

I hear they are making a sequel to Zoolander. I don’t remember seeing this from the first time around. The sport sandals make this look. If it had been made a few years later they would have used a longboard.

This week’s shot of the week is Marek Litinsky in Hood River, Oregon. Photo by David Horvath. It’s a vertical shot so click the pic to see it full frame.

Another new one from Team Pain, this time in Apollo Beach, Florida. Looks like the new stains are becoming a hallmark of this crew. Pics and video after the jump.

Pay attention in school kids. You never know when things might get interesting. This is a random slide from a biology lecture that Billy Bones attended. I don’t know what’s more messed up, the skater’s wacky shape or his massively receding hairline. It’s also kind of creepy that the only fully opaque figure is a girl in a bikini.

As disappointed as I am with his term, I was ready to believe this for half a heart beat. This video is fake, but pretty well done. Come on Obama, get some for cryin’ out loud… – Spotted on Facebook via KC

This Friday April 6th is the opening for With Much Haste a show featuring work by skaters/artists from Portland as well as Mickeal Broth and Barf from Born Ugly out of Richmond, Virginia.

A few people have 900’s under their belts but the first kid to land a 1080 is 12 year old Tom Schaar (no relation to Steve Claar) who did the whole thing in front of a few people and not a televised sporting event packed with spectators. The asterisk comes from the fact that it was done on a megaramp specially modified just for the occasion. The feat is spectacular, amazing and Extreme!™ but it would seem harder to accomplish on a regular size ramp. Of course, your beloved author can’t even land a 360 on a regular ramp, much less attempt anything on a megaramp. Tom landed it on his fifth try!!! (!!!!!) Where did it happen? Woodward West, with a little help from Red Bull. I kind of feel bad for this kid, like he got robbed of his chance for a spectacle. He’ll never get a Pizza Pocket endorsement now. Tom needs a better agent. Video after the jump. WARNING: both videos autostart. I can’t turn it off. – Thanks to Boy Ipoh for the tip.
