Creature Rip Rider

Best coffin shaped skateboard… EVER!!!

I’m not one for the unprovoked posting of a bunch of product releases as ‘news’ but the Riprider from Creature has got to be the coolest thing I’ve seen in forever and a day. It’s so simple, obvious… and beautiful. I’m gushing. Hey N.H.S., hook a brother up! Oh wait, I just blew my bargaining […]

Skateboard lighters

I’m so hot I can’t stand it.

Nothing proclaims your love for a sport more than your desire to surround yourself in accoutrements adorned with symbols of your passion. If you can’t be killing the coping at a particular moment, you might as well be killing your lungs with a skateboard-themed lighter.

Pool Pirate from AGP

Arrrrgh!

Conahan does a lot of artsy fartsy stuff, some say he even likes saxophones. He’s got a pretty cool shirt design at his home base, Antigravity Press, called the Pool Pirate. It’s analog baby. Since we (OK, I) also want to appeal to the two street skaters that might read this site, I’ve come up […]

Elmo kids luggage

Snake me Elmo

Getting ready to take a trip to Florida with my two and a half year old kid. Need to buy him a carry on bag. Must fight competing urges to barf and/or buy an Elmo skateboarding suitcase. See it larger after the jump.

A turd that looks like a skateboard

Well, you’re a tool now

Someone at my daughter’s school was trying to sell this flimsy p.o.s. and when there were no takers he gave it to her. She was appalled and brought it home before anyone could see her with it. Cummins Industrial Tools rechristened Tools now will sell you this deathtrap made in China to their high standards […]
