The Honda Zoomer-X is out there somewhere in Thailand. It’s got a space under the seat for a box that you can remove to carry longer items, like the suggested skateboard in this promo shot. [ Source: Motomalaya ] – Thanks to Boy for the tip.

The cover of Photo News Canada, which should be subtitled “Your source for Canadian photoshopped photography.” Another Seismic sighting. – Thanks to Matthijs for the tip.

Another Dole banana skateboard tie in.

Tom Penny board on Flip with Cheech & Chong, and the real Cheech & Chong, via Facebook. CSS has a brief interview with the duo regarding their appearance.

A little bit of street luge and a little bit of skateboarding, all in one Volvo commercial. [ Source: Seismic Facebook feed.] – Thanks to Matthijs for the tip.

Closeup of a Mountain Dew ad circa 2001. Essentially a retread of the Nike’s “What if we treated all athletes…” campaign from 1997. Good idea, but still clumsy. “We can dream, can’t we?” No we can’t, because there is no “we” that you are implying. i’m not buying it for a second, (now third) pun. Slightly larger after the jump. I need the $16 it would cost, so it’s courtesy of photoshop.

Put it on a plate son, you’ll enjoy it more. Just don’t put it in the microwave or dishwasher. This is a McDonalds “collectible” plate from 2006. I shouldn’t put collectable in quotes because I collected it. Got to give the artist credit for the stylish tuck knee frontside air and the apparent kickflip (heelflip?) on vert, even if Ronald is about to fly off the edge of the vert ramp. Nice bicycle helmet on Ronald. He is a clown though…

Another marketing piece from Stumptown Coffee with a skateboard. I’m not sure if that’s supposed to be a generic older lady or a man in drag, but it works for me. Tim Root on the pen and ink again. – Thanks to Skidzilla for the tip.

The backwards truck phenomenon happens all the time when marketers attempt to use skateboards without consulting an actual skateboarder. How did it apparently happen to Rob Dyrdek’s Street League Skateboarding, an organization dedicated to presenting “real” skateboarding? You know he must have been bummed the moment he realized it. The reflective nature of the trophy makes it hard to see definitively, but it sure looks like it’s backwards, Randals notwithstanding. Because we’re not all sour grapes here, there’s a bunch of well done photos of the latest Street League contest. Nyjah Huston is the champ, in case you wanted some actual results. I’ve added a “Backwards Skateboard Syndrome” to the tags. When I get a chance I’ll go back and retag some of the old posts with examples. – Thanks to Seth Levy for the tip.

Pretty easy to have the record if you’re the only one doing it. I predict Dyrek will be visiting the Goat mills soon to make sure this, uh, respected honor belongs to a real skateboarder. Basically, the goat jumps on the skateboard and stands still until the momentum dies. I think I’ll see if I can train a squirrel to do the same thing so I can get on TV. Yes, this story was picked up by local news networks. Ladies and gentlemen, the Guiness World Record holding skateboarding goat. [Source: Boingboing] – Thanks to Danimal and others for the tip.
