If you are planning for some good footage of yourself and your buddies snowboarding, you might want to be equipped with the right equipment for taking photos and videos while you snowboard.

The best camera/camcorder for snowboarding in our opinion is the GoPro HD helmet camcorder that comes with 1080P 30fps/720P 60fps recording with ability to capture more with its super-wide 170 degrees lens.

Also the GoPro HD is completely water resistant up to 180 feet (yes, you can take it underwater) and shock-proof.

Check out what you can do with it:

Get the GoPro HD on Amazon for $299.99.

For those of you hardcore skateboarders, there’s good news that this Scarpar motorized skateboard might just do the job for all your off-roading ventures.  Holy Schmolly, this gadget is so tight except you can’t really do ollies on it.

Someone really needs to just mass-manufacture and market this guy. Right now, the current estimate for a retail price for a single Scarpar is somewhere in the neighborhood of two or three thousand dollars. Can we get that price to drop a little lower, please? Most extreme sports nuts can’t even afford skyboarding.

Here’s a bunch of awesome pro snowboard tricks from pros Blair Habenicht, Jesse Flies, Manuel Diaz, Cristian Wehrhahn, Matt Edgers, Austin Hironaka, Andy Walbon, Sammy Luebke, JP Audisio, Sean Mansfield aka Donnkie, and more…

The special conditions on sand need specific equipment, hence this special board. “The front area is wide for more boosts in the sand and gets narrow in the back for aggressive maneuvers. The bottom side is slightly convex from nose to tail for an optimal float angle. The top side is vaulted therefore no sand amasses on the board and transfers more power from the foot to the board by the rampant angle. The foot loops assure an easy step in or out and transmit foothold and control of the board to the driver.” Apparently these loops can be fastened for Goofy or Regular riders.

This does seem like a quite do-able concept for the future surfers and snowboarders who happen to live in a 4-seasoned area where there’s a lot of sand such as Las Vegas…

Here’s a cool surfer trailer AirStream, especially made for surfers traveling in Mini Coopers.  I have to say, you might even be able to enjoy some TV via broadband internet and of course, don’t forget to include your portable BBQ in the trailer while you are resting on the beaches.

The new trailer is designed with surfers in mind. The trailer includes Arne Jacobsen’s Egg and Swan Chair and a table set up with four unique Series Seven chairs for guests. Sleek wood paneling will top it off, giving it the ultimate “modern surfer” look. The Mini Cooper S Clubman will be predominately jet black with black “wetsuit” neoprene accents along with green trim. The 22-foot silver Airstream trailer will also enjoy the same exterior details as the Mini but will have an interior designed for beach goers with features such as a waterproof interior and a sun bathing bed. “Partnering with Mini was a given,” said Bob Wheeler, CEO of Airstream, Inc. “As one of the oldest manufacturers of recreational vehicles in the U.S. and Mini’s longstanding history producing unmistakable sport cars, we knew that we would make a dynamite team,” said Wheeler. This surfing trailer will make its debut at the upcoming Salone del Mobile show in Milan.

Check out Jeremy Flores, another talented pro surfer on the rise.

From Quicksilver Bio:

In 2007 Jeremy Flores, the youngest competitor ever on the ASP world tour, made history by winning rookie of the year en route to a spectacular 7th place finish. Despite growing up in far flung Madagascar and Reunion Island, Jeremy was recognized early for his talent and moved to Australia at age 8 to devote himself to competitive surfing. Now living in France and New Caledonia, Jeremy speaks 4 languages and is comfortable anywhere in the world. He won the WQS title in 2006 and was a standout in all three Young Guns films. He even beat mentor Kelly Slater last year at Teahupo’o and his fast, aggressive surfing and fiercely competitive spirit are set to make him the first ever European world title contender.

Who knew old skateboard decks would make great jewelry?  They are durable, long-lasting, and made tough so custom jewelers like this one at Etsy can simply cut the old boards and re-make them into jewelry.

If you got girlfriend, this might be the perfect gift.  Even better, use your own old skateboard deck, send it to this custom jeweler to make you a very special skateboard jewelry.

Heck, I even got more ideas now, why don’t we use some trucks, wheels, and etc…etc..?

Check out this cool commercial of Daewon Song on how to skateboard without shoes.  Well, actually, Daewon Song is sorta trying to “save” his skateboard shoes from losing its shinyness by not wearing it.  Kinda cool though how he can still pull off most of the tricks, I bet most pro boarders can’t do as well.

Here’s a video of Jason Lee when he was 14 years old, 3 years before turning pro, very interesting.

This rare video has Jason Lee with footage from around age 14 (Jason would turn pro 3 years later). Although the video is recorded as 1980, obviously it’s wrong since Lance Mountain’s deck was around 1984. Regardless, Jason Lee, at age 14 is doing tricks here that no pros were doing at that time. Radically ahead of his time with smooth kickflips when the flatground ollie itself was just invented, Jason shows that at age 14, he already had the style that made him the smoothest street skater ever. While the world was getting into invert circles from doing bonelesses for years, Jason already was proving that ollie tricks were the future. Now an actor, Jason is still credited with being the first to be street-tech with style and he is still the possessor of the greatest 360 flips. The end is Jason playing guitar in his hilarious singing style.
