SHAKASTICS SURPRISE

Yuta Koide makes his own skateboards and has his own little cottage industry in Costa Mesa where he's been hard at work shaping shreddable planks for sidewalk surfing. I showed up to Moonlight last week to a package in my room with one of these collectable decks!

22" shredder model
5-5/8" wide (4" forward of center)
5/8" thick

He's been documenting the evolution of Shakastics on his blog at SHAKASTICS...check it out!






He's been making t-shirts too, so email him at shakastics@gmail.com if you want an original tee none of your goofy friends have yet...



THANKS YUTA!!!

presents

I got to see Thomas' new movie "The Present" last Friday, and I was stoked to find out one of my boards made it into the movie. It's the green and purple quad fish at the far right of the photo (half-hidden by the white and orange fish.) Shannon surfs it in the Africa section. The waves in the movie are so good that you kinda go numb after a while. If you haven't seen it yet, "do what you gotta do" as Thomas would say.
