Hello Skateboards

Hello is a collaboration between skateboarder Buddy Carr and graphic designer Antonio Carusone. The result is pretty slick, in my opinion. The retro cruiser market is getting pretty crowded, but there’s always room for one more, if you do it right. There’s a whole photo set of this complete up on Flickr, and the board […]

Bad Brains - Rootz Beer

Bad Brains – Rootz Beer

When they aren’t busy trying to get me to advertise, the folks at Punk Radio Cast have teamed up with extreme sports friends Jones Soda to release some limited edition labels in a variety pack. They “collaborated” with five artists, including the Bad Brains, and four other bands you don’t care about. Considering the potential, […]

Skate and Annoy T-Shirts

It’s all in the merch

Here’s the answer to everyone who’s been clamoring for t-shirts, well at least that one guy… Skate and Annoy merchandise booth is now open. These aren’t phantom t-shirts either. They actually exist in a big box in my living room. Price: $15 for the first one. $10 each additional. Shipping: $5 flat fee for up […]

gator reissue

Old legends never die, but their girlfriends do.

Apparently, killers are kosher again for legendary Vision Skateboards. You used to be able to get Mark Rogowski’s shape with the word “Vision” in place of skateboarding’s most famous murderer. Market research must have proven that the public has a short term memory for distasteful acts such as rape and assault, but a long term […]

Skater in a box

I don’t know which former powerhouse brand has fallen further from grace. Nash, Variflex, Vision or now Kryptonics. If this concept had come from World Industries in the 90’s I would have praised it as the pinnacle of satire. Instead, the aptly named Skater in a Box is toy store/sporting goods fodder without irony. Still, […]

Don’t forget to skate

Yes, good advice indeed, found on the insides of these new Vans designed by a Dutch designer going by Parra. Now if someone could just write that on the tag of all those Indy t-shirts. There’s an interview with Parra and some pictures of his work over on Fecal Face. [Source: Leased Ferrari Photo right: […]

Friday T&A on S&A: I Wish they all could be… David Lee Roth

OK people, I’m going to keep finding excuses to link to this David Lee Roth game until someone acknowledges it’s awesomeness. It’s already appeared twice without mention, so I’m through with subtlety. And so is California Girls Skateboards, an idea that is only missig Diamond Dave as a spokesman. Bikini Girls with skateboards, on skateboards. […]
