Psycho Skate – Vision – 1988

Psycho Skate from Vision Streetwear, circa 1988. This video is a good mix of Freestyle, Vert, and even some early Snowboarding. It seems like everything back in the late 80s was some sort of bright neon color. Do you remember color-changing shirts? More after the jump.

laser etched skateboards

Laser Etched Skateboards (coming to a mall kiosk near you?)

Seven is an art exhibition of laser etched skateboards. Refill Magazine is the show’s sponsor. Their press states it’s a new technology but the Laser etching process predates pospsicle shaped skateboards. Right now the web site is mostly coming soon and only has a handful of examples. Since you have to sit through an animation and they don’t stand still for long, we’ve pulled a few off in static form after the jump. Legendary skateboard artist Jim Phillips is the only industry affiliated person on the contributors list so far. [Source: Freshness]

Nike Tokyo Chalk

A Commercial a Day – Day 7: Nike SB Chalk

What’s the deal with naming it Nike SB? I mean, do we ride skate boards or skateboards? Even if you have a beef with Nike getting back into skateboarding, you have to admit they have always done their commercials right, starting with the famous “what if we treated all athletes they way we treat skateboarders” series. Actually, I should have posted those first, but this newer ad is almost equally as good. I’m including Nike SB in this series because Nike is primarily a company that is not skateboarding centric. Catch the commercial and a behind the scenes vid after the jump. [Source: Brettner.com]

Reporter eats it on a skateboard

Switch Wilson or Fakie Wilson?

You be the judge. Watch this reporter take a hard slam on a skateboard while interviewing a BMX guy for the Dew Tour. Perhaps she should have gotten skateboard advice from a skateboarder instead. This happened on a local Portland newscast and somehow we got scooped. Catch this video without annoying aftermarket sound effects or Ebaums’ World screen tattoo after the jump.

Pierre Andre Yop Commercial

A Commercial a Day – Day 6: Pierre Andre Yop Commercial

Yesterday we did Australia, so today we’re in Europe with Pierre Andre, the other, other freestyler. This is a commercial for a French yogurt drink called Yop. If it were English, it would have been appropriate to call it Fop, considering the fashion and demeanor of freestyle in the 80’s. The highlight of this commercial is the Primo slide, Primo being the other, other, other freestyler. More Pierre Andre love after the jump.
