The other day I noticed my skater friends had one of these subskate devices.  This thing is great for practicing your crazy jumps without risking yourself to injury by jumping into the pool while you ollie 360.

Swarovski-Studded Snowboards

March 7th, 2009 by Board Sports1

Here’s a bunch of new swarovski-studded snowboards that might help you look a little bit more stylish on the way down.  Of course, these crystals will fall off eventually, just the nature of snowboards but if you need to look good while your snowboard is new, go ahead, we won’t stop you.

Two leading Swiss and Austrian companies have collaborated with the University of Art and Design Lausanne (ECAL) to exhibit original and offbeat snowboards at the 2008 Milan Furniture Fair. Under the leadership of Pierre Keller, director of the ECAL, and Augustin Scott de Martinville, a member of the ECAL te/aching staff, students studying Industrial Design and Visual Communication were able to “-customise-” snowboards manufactured by Nidecker by graphically inlaying Swarovski crystals.

Mike Vallely on Skateboarding!

Here’s an interesting “life” video of Mike Vallely, who turned pro in 1987.

I turned pro on May 31, 1987 at a vert contest in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. This really pissed off my sponsor at the time, Powell Peralta as I entered and skated in that contest against their wishes. I was in their eyes a “street skater” and they didn’t want me doing anything to tarnish my image. Getting last place in my first professional competition on a vert ramp wasn’t exactly how they wanted me to start my pro career.
