Skate and Annoy: Daily
Relp!
A Scooby Doo metal box in the shape of a quarter pipe. Get yours from a Crickefarmer. I still hate Scooby Doo.
Friday T&A on S&A: Nice Curves
Let’s see… What’s the least offensive joke I can make here? I think that was it. I wonder if this is Wet Willy’s water slide? Photo by Wesley Chmielowski
The King
Jeric made this King of Hearts skateboard playing card. I don’t know who he is, but I found it here.
China from Japan
It costs about $67, but they might hand painted or… I don’t know because I don’t read Japanese. Get yours at Choemonshop.com.
Be a sport, play it safe
Several weeks ago I met a gentleman at the DOS bowl who was wearing this patch he had sewn on a his jacket. Good, clean fun from a gentler age. I love corny stuff like that. I forgot the guy’s name. Sorry guy.
LRT from Futurist
This “LRT” vinyl figure is from Futurist. I don’t get the aesthetic that they are going for with this guy and the accompanying shirts and skateboards. It is sort of reminiscent of Fisher Price Little People. Last Re-Tweet? I must not be the target demographic.
Gator bootleg
On this edition of counterfeit skateboards we have a completely generic looking Gator rip off found all the way over in Belgium, complete with a Tony Hawk Skategear sticker that definitely looks like it’s an 80’s vintage, but I’m wondering if it (sticker) is of a later vintage, because it doesn’t look familiar to me. – Thanks to David Maes for the tip.
SB rideable advertising
MC found this Nike SB outdoor advert that was produced in Brazil circa 2006, so don’t go looking for these here and now. There’s not much information from the source because you have to (pay) subscribe to actually read the content. It’s called Mub Skateboard, from a firm called F/Nazca Saatchi & Saatchi. It looks like an appendage they add to existing structures to make them skate able, like a skate-prosthesis. I don’t remember I we talked about this earlier or not, but Nike had plans to tear down the artificial barrier they erected between SB and the rest of the company, and looks like they’ve been absorbed at last, the old url redirects to the corporate site. Very sterile. [Source: Advertolog]
The History of Skateboarding in 2 Minutes
Guido Sty Rizzone made edited footage and photos to show the history of skateboarding in 2 minutes, and did a good job. Go ahead, you’ve only got 2 minutes to lose. – Thanks to Matthijs for a tip.
