Taco Bell is for Weird-Ohs

Kids meal toys at Taco Bell are (were, most likely) really cheap Weird-Ohs brand fingerboards. I am officially losing my mind now, because I swear I already did a post about some Weird-Ohs branded magnetic figures on a skateboard, but I can’t find it anywhere on the site. I can’t link to it, but the […]

Skatebirding

I prefer “Vacuum Cleaner, sucks up Budgie” As seen in the April 2010 issue of In Touch Weekly.

Fingerboarding is not a crime

Sure, we tease them about their $75 trucks and fingerpants, but deep down we’re still brothers. At first I thought this was an item we’d already posted, but this application of stickers in a sink is not for marketing purposes. It’s just clever for it’s own sake. Now someone just needs to invent fingerskatestoppers. – […]

Ornery FIngerboarders

Man what a sensitive group. All I did was poke fun at the fact that these toy miniature skateboards were somewhat absurdly priced. I’m sure it’s expensive to have tiny trucks cast in small quantities, and if that’s your thing than go for it. However, don’t come over here and expect me to publish comments […]

Best $75 trucks ever (for your fingerboard)

I’ve switched out trucks and wheels for my kids so many times… but this is just a smidge too much. I suppose if you’re going […]

Every dollhouse needs a backyard bowl

Or so says recent new father Danimal – Congrats! However, I have it on good authority that “Dad” bought this for himself for X-Mas, and not for his firstborn, shown here. This particular bowl appears to have made the rounds with skaters of a certain age this year. I know three people whose “kids” got […]

Finger pants! Finger pants!

Skateboarding begat fingerboards. Fingerboards begat tiny plastic ramps. Tiny plastic ramps begat… FINGER PANTS!!!!!!! Actually, these Finger Pants aren’t exactly new. Back in the 80’s there was a fingerboard sold that came with a glove that you wore. The glove had the upper torso of what looked by a Ken doll attached to it. Two […]

Stone Tech Ramps

Skateboarding has spawned some interesting cottage industries. I just found a guy making fingerboard skate obstacles under the name Stone Tech Ramps. The halfpipe, bowls and street obstacles are made out of some sort of resin that must be lightweight. You can see a kid above lifting up one of the massive bowls without a […]
