A momentary loss of muscular coordination

I had a lapse of judgement, I made some bids I couldn’t back up. Like that time in 8th grade when I almost got stuck paying $60 for a cake at that Boy Scout charity bake auction. These Skatewings are freakish and rare. Just try finding one with a Google image search. Brewce Martin owns […]

What can you make out of two crappy dots?

The secret word is “do.” Season 5, epsiode 9. I’ve owned this for 4 years and I finally got around to watching this episode. I’ve got my kids trained to tell me anytime there’s a skateboard on TV. “Daddy, Daddy! There’s a skateboard on TV!” Usually it’s a Sketchers commercial. There’s another episode in season […]

Are you ready to get Duffed?

It’s Matthijs week on Skate and Annoy. remember Bud Man on a skateboard? Well the only reason you’re not looking at a picture of this on me (or my wife) is because it’s a damned small size. Duffman is thrusting in the direction of the problem. Buy it now for $45

eBay Watch: April 2010

Well, despite what I said last month, I was able to pull together a full and complete BayWatch for April 2010. It was a tough month though. I’m assuming lots of people owed on their taxes in April because almost all of the big-ticket decks available went unsold. Only a few decks went for over […]

Before they were disposable

Reader Owen Williams sent these pics of yard sale find in New Zealand. He paid the equivalent of $50 for this. Check out the wood inlays on this deck.

The Icee bear stops being a tease

Oh Icee bear, who shall remain nameless because it apparently doesn’t actually have a name other than “Polar Bear.” How I love you neo-Igloo Caps type face and your permanently retro identity. You’ve been holding out on me for so long, always on an ice surfboard, and in the past decade, an ice snowboard. Countless […]

The hundredth iteration of this game

At this point I think there must be a place that sells the logic board for this type of LCD game intact for finishing and repackaging as you see fit. I think I may have picked this up from the dollar bins at Target. Gameplay: Things come down the road and you push buttons to […]

Bud Man says a lot of things…

I swear there is more information on the web about the history of Duff Man than there is about Bud Man. This sticker dates back to the late 70’s or possibly early 80’s. I like that someone drew a cartoon character and then used a photostat to insert tiny photo realistic bud cans in his […]

Courtship of Eddies’s… wrong child actor

Butch Patrick as Eddie Munster. Now I have to search out a DVD of the Munsters to look for a skateboarding episode. Sounds like a job for Scott Starr. Enlarge-o-rama.
