Penny Skateboards

I was looking for a way to stay in snowboarding shape over the summer and liked the idea of these Penny Skateboards.  I used to have a blue Penny board back in the early 80's, but I don't think I realized what I really had at the time. These boards are perfect in every way in my opinion.


These boards handle like no other board on the market. I have tried a few imitation boards and they don't seem to have the same formula as Penny.


Penny has been doing it forever, and the quality of the product they put out shows why.


They also have a larger Nickel sized board and a newer model known as the Marble.

If you are looking for a retro skateboard to cruise around the neighborhood or the beach, the Penny Skateboards brand is the one for you.

Twoeightnine design: tshirts are incredible

I had that last post about No Mas and their Rated Rookies shirt and I was all pumped up on baseball cards.  I was looking to write about the old school wood panel design of the 1987 Topps Baseball Cards when I stumbled across a shirt and another incredible clothing company.

 

Now you are a Future Star.


Oh. You like Bo playing football? Silver and Black Attack




Do you remember those Dennis Hopper Nike commercials? Bad Things Man.



Blades of Steel was nice because you were penalized if you lost the fight.


Sir Charles was a bad ass because he was short and played with the big dudes.

Check out more of their stuff at two eight nine designs.

They have a nice collection.
