Pro-force Progurt

Yogurt is Extreme!™, especially when it’s… I don’t know. Cold? Who is that DC wearing model/athlete? We’ll never know. Unless you do. – Thanks to RJ from Pittsburgh for the tip.

Izod Lacoste

This is an Artprint and Lacoste collaboration, Paris Vogue reports it’s a €250 ($334) complete skateboard, which includes the little Izod alligator. Supposed to be available at Colette in Paris, but doesn’t show up in the store at this point. Really, none of this surprises me at this point. Ironically, in the 80’s frat boys were often sporting Izod polo shirts as they harassed campus skate punks. Nowadays they have fratboards. The rubber mat grip tape looks kind of cool. – Thanks to Pep for the tip.

Etnies Skatepark

The quickest way to get your picture on Skate and Annoy? Wear an S&A shirt like Greg Baller. Of course, frontside double trucking doesn’t hurt either. Photo by Christopher Bright.

Hot Dog Magazine

Hot Dog Magazine’s premier issue features Mork and Mindy on the cover. Although published by Scholastic in 1979, the skateboard that Pam Dawber is riding looks like mid 70’s to me. It’s almost like they put a wider board on those tiny trucks to help her stay on. Issue #1 doesn’t have hide nor hair of a skateboard within the meager 24 pages, although the issue I procured didn’t have the “Free Poster Inside,” so maybe it was a larger or alternate version of the cover. Can anyone confirm? I remember Hot DOg as a kid, but I don’t think it was ever a serious contender for the 800 pound gorilla of pre-teen magazines, Dynamite.

Strap on

As advertised in Thrasher? Apparently so. Yet another take on straps for skateboards. THey want you to think it will help you with your loop attempts, but they don’t want you to blame them if it all goes horribly wrong. – Thanks to Heath for the tip.

Hackett at Svitaks

Another good installment of 7 Seconds at Svitak’s, this time with Dave Hackett. He’s only three episodes in and already lost an expensive wide angle lens to to Hackett’s mini ramp assault. It was Dave’s 52nd birthday, so Kristian probably cut him some slack. Brought to you by Regulator Distribution and 1031.

The sincerest form of flattery

Jim Phillips Fall/Winter show for 2013 has him going back to his roots as a skateboard graphic designer before he became the fashion icon that he is… Hold on a minute. What? That’s not JimPhillips? Jimbo then? No? OK. I’m sorry. This collection belongs to Jeremy Scott. [Source: Hypebeast]

M-ROCK – Airborne LP

To keep the discussion “What is Skate Rock?” alive, we now have some obscure vinyl from Sweden for you. At first I thought someone just put a late 70´s / early 80´s photo of a skateboarder on the front cover to gain a bit more attention.

Shaggo skateboards

So… they are skateboards covered with shag carpeting. Not the most original idea, but someone’s got to do the work for the lazy people. I’m not sure about the wisdom in naming one of your vehicles “The Lemon.” That’s Shaggo Skateboards.
