Port-A-Board Portable Skateboard
The most revolutionary innovation in skateboards ever! Port-A-Board decks are lightweight yet durable, constructed from tough 6061 T6 aircraft aluminum.
Each board has a polished, clear anodized finish, nose and tail edgeguards in nine colors, complete set of wheels and bearings, removable wheel trucks and more.
For $150.00 you get a bunch of crap that fits together to form a big piece of crap. Dope!
No need to hide your board at school

GroundSurf Wireless Motorized Skateboard
GroundSurf is a three-wheeled skateboard with an unusual twist: You can control it with a Bluetooth cellphone.
Why in the hell couldn’t they throw a fourth wheel on there and make the thing capable of coming off the ground? Suppose it will happen soon enough.

Tony Hawk’s Big Spin
This new roller coaster, made by Gerstlauer in Germany, is patterned after the moves of professional skateboarder Tony Hawk. Instead of zipping along on tracks where each time you ride you move in the same pattern of ups, downs and arounds, this roller coaster has cars that spin as if you’re free-styling on a skateboard. None of the spins match each other so each time you ride, the experience is different.
Tony Hawk’s Big Spin roller coaster
We stopped dissing Tony Hawk out of respect. But we are more than capable of dissing Gerstlauer (The manufacturer), for making the ride only 45-50 feet tall. Just goes to show you that the marketing is directed toward children.

Skogging
Skogging is apparently an art and a sport. Switch foot push. Jogging with your Skateboard. Sounds a little Gezmer to us. Nice shirt.

Sit N Skate
Every once in a while something gets sent to us that isn’t Skateboard related and we tend to completely ignore them. This time we couldn’t help but introduce you to the Sit-N-Skate.
I have created and patented an innovative street toy that I believe would be a profitable addition to your product line. Perhaps you are not the right person to send this inquiry but if you find interest in my creation, I request you forward this e-mail to the one who could make a determination of interest in adding it to the product line. Based upon my initial research, I know it’s something that could be as popular as the Razor scooter and skateboards.
My creation utilizes roller skates and a form of a skateboard in its operation. I call it the: Sit N Skate.
Thank you.
Larry Maurer
No Larry… Thank You!

Nissan Qashqai
It was just a matter of time before we started doing frontside wallrides in our cars. Jeep started it. The Nissan Qashqai commercial almost feels like it does when Skateboarders drive. Someone needs to invent car copers. We want to see the hurricane.

The Lake Forest Zoo
How nice of the etnies skatepark of Lake Forest, CA to let us know what’s up. If mandatory full pads and beautiful steel bars caging you in weren’t enough, they just announced more fun stuff coming in 2007. Time to have a nice birthday party:

All Packages are for up to 10 participants. Each additional child will cost $20 up to a maximum of 20 participants. Each party will last for 2 hours.

Let’s see… Cute birthday parties, wednesday BMX nights, band nights with mandatory donations, 2007 waivers, photography policies, skate camps, snowboarding trips and unsolicited e-mail newsletters… Awesome. And on top of that, the good folks over at etnies have absolutely no control over the matter.
Nick Gates, a major force in helping to make skateboarding suck. Thanks dude.
