Yeah, I don’t know what that means. Salt Surf is the name of the company and I was just struggling for a title here. I like the shape and the product, but the Pottery Barn style faux weathering rubs me the wrong way. Has anyone seen a copy of this 43 Magazine that they are also selling? Looks interesting and more like an artifact. Not something you keep next to the toilet.

Sure, but where’s Diane? Nichlaus Abraham, AKA Warm Fuzzy Co was not offended when I said his illustrations reminded me of Superjail. There are a few other skateboards in there too.

More Oregon skatespots on Espn.com This time from photographer Garric Ray. I can’t very well give him a hard time for calling Lincoln City a suburb of Portland because I once captioned a bean plant as a boneless on Fuel TV’s site. That photo too, was at Lincoln City.Must be something in the coastal air, (or concrete!) Can you end a sentence in parenthesis?

Kevin Kowalski’s backyard skate complex featured on ESPN.com. Stick around for the end as Kevin extends an invitation that you see him instantly regret as the video fades to black.

Felippe Lovecchio’s interior design. His web site is full of renders, none of it looks like actual photographs, but hey, I’d like to see this built. It’s a nice break from concept renderings of electric skateboards. Photo from Facebook. – Thanks to Boy for the tip.

The Ground Surf from 1135 Garnet looks like it might be a design concept and not an actual product as of yet. There are next to zero details on the site. Sensors supposedly adjust speed by weight placement, which seems like it might be hard to control. Good news though, if you fall off those sensors will apply the brakes. Nice neo-art deco design. If Deckard rode an electric skateboard, this is what it would look like. [Source: The Khooll] – Thanks to Kathleen for the tip.

Best crash vid ever. It’s hard to tell from this still frame, but that’s Ryan Vitale’s downhill run ending abruptly courtesy of the local wildlife during the third annual Buffalo Bill Downhill in Golden, Colorado with no major injuries to either party.

This is a photo from Portland’s ongoing light rail expansion project to nearby Milwaukie, Oregon. It used to be located on the front page of the web site for the Bureau of Transportation, but it’s oddly missing now, so the doctored photo that Sam from SkateOregon isn’t nearly as topical now, but you can check it out after the jump. Although these concrete channels look skateable, I am pretty sure they will be buried and then filled with dirt and train tracks.
