For those who came into the skate world post 80′s, you’ve probably only skated the equilateral, utilitarian shaped deck. While great for function it lacks in form. This is an awesome, nostalgic chart showing how crazy and different board shapes used to be. All I used to do in middle school was draw shapes and graphics for my pro model I was so sure would get put out one day. Shout out to Mario Desa, tattoo artist extraordinaire, for passing our designs back and forth during class.

Bones Brigade Documentary
I have no idea when this will be released to the public but be sure I’ll be there to check it out. The Bones Brigade is legendary and are the ones behind the seminal skate vid, The Search for Animal Chin. It’s the first video I remember with a narrative and Stacy Peralta continues to push the skate lifestyle forward.
Check for a Teaser from this year’s Sundance Film fest after the jump.
