Check out Rapanui a eco-fashion brand hailing from the Isle of Wight were they make some awesome organic clothing. All the clothing is sustainable and also great for skating around in – they are also thoroughly nice guys as well and recommend you check out their latest 2010 collection.

Another recommendation for a business, from the Isle of Wight, is A Higher Sound, a cheap yet highly professional light and sound hire company that cater for weddings, discos and just about any type of music event you can think of.

Awesome idea for a skateboard deck design, try explaining that one to your mum.

It seems obvious doesn’t it? Skating in a abandoned waterpark is freakin’ fun.

This is one of my favourite longboarding videos, I love the way it is shot and the raw speed that the guys reach. The best bit has got to be when they actually goes fast enough to over take a car. Adam Kimmel presents: Claremont.

Tony shared this (blurry) photo of himself manualling down the hallway in the Whitehouse through his twitter account (@tonyhawk).

This looks like it was really painfull, that’ll teach him to take out his frustration on his already broken deck.

Invisible skateboards or awesome stop motion animation? You decide:

Pretty unbelievable that the first generation of skateboards had solid steel wheels, I can’t imagine they were that funny to skate on! I wonder what we can expect next in the evolution of skateboard wheels, I’m hoping it’s a back to future style anti-gravity drive

Have a look at our evolution of the skateboard post to see how skateboard decks have changed

Police in Germany are looking for a stuntman who rode on the autobahn near Stuttgart at 100kph. The professional stuntman hung onto a high powered motorbike to gather speed in a move similar to Michael J Fox in Back to the Future. After letting go of the bike the stuntman raced down hill reaching speeds of 100kph (60mph) and basically the German police are not happy.

This guy is seriously nuts

With the new film coming out soon these decks are sure to be hot. It’s the second  “Where the Wild Things Are” related merchantise we’ve seen. back in May 2008 Lakai released a set of Limited Edition trainers that featured the characters. They’ve got nothing on these new decks from Girl though, the paint job looks sweet!
