I wonder what’s happening with the Gene Pool? Slowly but surely.

I’m not fan of Excel (or Powerpoint for that matter.. Cue rim shot.) but at the very least, in 1995 they were well ahead of the curve paying respect to Dogtown. – Thanks to Matthijs for the tip

I thought there might be a skateable pool behind the fence, so I held my phone up and angled it over the top. I guess 1 out of 2 ain’t bad, and it is technically skateable now.

Placed to Ride recently finished a park in Peñuelas, Puerto Rico. It’s on the south side of the island about a half an hour drive from Ponce, the second largest city in PR. PTR’s Stefan Hauser also has an interview on EuropeSkate.

I would like to apologize to the posts that appear above and below this one.

This one actually looks pretty good too, able to go uphill, but certainly not as powerful as a Gnarboard. This is probably the nicest looking electric skateboard to date, it doesn’t look like a longboard with a brick strapped to it. It’s the first ever to use regenerative breaking too. Breaking recharges the batteries a little bit. Hella expensive (Yes, I said “hella”) though. Boosted Boards has raised $297,763 do date on Kickstarter. Their promo video is heavily biased towards green transportation vs. skateboarding fun.
