Koston gets a new shoe from Nike. I wonder if it’s going to be popular? I wonder if I’ll get diarrhea after eating Indian food from a NYC street vendor? Guaranteed! Available February 2011.

New wetsuit company coming out of Nor Cal. You know what that means? These suits are made to handle the frigid, raw ocean off San Francisco. Check the site out … it’s full of techno babble convincing you your current suit is a piece of crap.

Yet another chance to talk about Ghostbusters! This time you get to actually be Gozer the Gozarian as he takes the shape of something from Ray Stantz’s innocent childhood.

KR3W now makes watches. Here’s a great example.

Arto is amazing. He’s also Finnish, which also makes him amazing. Finnish people are my favorite. Arto has a new shoe on Gravis that looks pretty clean. That’s good too … because the Dylan Rieder dance shoe they were trying to pawn off as a skate shoe was starting to be the only shoe people associated with the brand.

Yeah … I’m a Masshole and damn proud of it. Whenever I see fellow Massholes making waves … I tip my hat.

Yobeat is an online magazine (is this even possible?) that likes to poke fun at the snowboarding industry. I’m all for that. They now have t-shirts and other stuff for sale to keep their “business” in business. Support people that don’t take themselves seriously.

Whoa, easy there Mr. Belvedere! Nixon’s pocket watch makes you look 10 times more sophisticated as soon as you purchase it.  Monacle not included.

Yeah … it’s December and not so much beach weather outside, unless you live in the tropics. In which case, the odds of you reading about this boardshort on the internet are slim to none, because the internet sucks in the tropics. Wrap some Aloha around your waist with these sweet trunks from Analog. Did you ever notice Analog looks a lot like “anal log” when you type it? I just did.

My friend, Dale, helped start Cappel back when snowboarding was cool. Not to say it’s not cool now, but it’s really less cool now than it used to be. Dale had a rad style on & off the hill that translated into the Cappel brand. It’s good to see Ride resurrected Cappel and are still putting out good-looking winter-proof threads.
