Old Dog, New Tricks: Dog Playing Tony Hawk

You know the new Tony Hawk: Ride game that comes with a skateboard peripheral? This is a dog playing it — and he’s pretty good (except the 360 was obviously FAAAAKE). Which brings up an interesting question — what is it with bulldogs and skateboarding? They love that shit for some reason. If I was a bulldog I would just lay in the sun and lick myself.

Skateboard + Keyboard = Skatekeyboard?

Skateboard + Keyboard = Skatekeyboard?

Artist Tobias Leingruber (another nevernude) had a dream . Unfortunately he couldn’t remember it when he woke up so he glued a keyboard to a skateboard . The end. I am not really sure if one can actually balance on this and I am not aware if this piece of artwork has hidden ports to which you can connect to the PC. Either way, it seems like a keyboard that you can’t use, and a skateboard that you can’t ride on. However, it certainly underlines the importance of fun and frolic in an otherwise dreary lifestyle that we have come to live. I don’t care what they say, I would totally ride this thing. And you know what? I would kick flip its caps lock off . *wicka-pow* THERE I THINK I GOT IT! THANKS TO JEREMY, WHO LIKES YELLING BECAUSE IT REMINDS HIM OF HIS CHILDHOOD. ME TOO, JEREMY.

Sure, Why Not?: Neon Tetris On Skateboards

This is a video of 36 skateboarders playing a game of human Tetris on some hill in San Francisco while wearing giant neon shapes on their heads. Except it’s not actually Tetris because not all of them are rocking tetrominoes. No, some of those mothers got damn pentominos on their heads. And I’m not talking the little red bits in olives! But, damnit, now I want olives. Shit, and some artichoke hearts. Fun fact: Jesus once turned an olive branch into a magic wand and banished hate from an evil sorcerer’s heart. Then he did the water into wine thing and everybody had a good time. Plus, there was live music. You can’t beat that. Youtube Thanks to Duncan, who once tried playing Frogger on a skateboard and lost.

I Invented That!: Fan Powered Rocket Board

I Invented That!: Fan Powered Rocket Board

I’m pretty sure this is every five-year old boy’s first invention . Of course, few have the technical know-how to make it happen. And even fewer are allowed to play with power tools . But grownup Ray Bavetta kept the dream alive and slapped a 3.7HP model airplane engine on a skateboard and misnamed it Rocket Board . Do you know what a rocket is, Ray? There’s usually fire coming out of the back. Not streamers. Rocket Board makes skateboarding a bit more interesting [dvice] Thanks to FDSY, who is fairly certain this is how he’ll die.
