Zip Zing, Zig Zag, ride Krooked!

Some years ago the undeniably creative and infectiously influential skateboard icon Mark Gonzales launched a skateboard brand called Krooked. Mark has always had a unique style and offbeat approach toward everything involved in skating. Krooked created and introduced the Zip-Zinger and the Zig Zagger many years before this cruzer board hipster resurgence that is happening these days. These sticks are the original re-invented sidewalk surfers from the mainstream skateboard industry. With Mark's artistic eye for shapes and artwork these boards are the bee's knees. Add in a little Bloggin's custom parts build up and you've got some one of a kind hotness. -Roll your Bones-

Kooks again!

The Kimura Model is here! These little discos are similar to the DT Quads but with a single fin, a pulled roundy tail and a little bit more foiled rails. Seems like these little doggers will work hot in some good surf and flow nicely in the slup. We also have 30 more Kookbox boards on the way including all of the new models. Keep an eye on the Kookbox website an the other one on this here bloggins station. Good Night.

Watson likes em!
Curvatures look pleasant.
I always like a nice round tail myself.
KEY -MOO- RUHS!
Bye Bye.

9' Takayama Beach Break

Just finished shooting and uploading photos of 35 new boards that have come into the shop over the last month or so. Check out the KOOKBOX INVENTORY page, the TAKAYAMA INVENTORY page and the CHRISTENSON INVENTORY page to see what's happenin' in the board room! Here's a few hot ones out of the bunch.

And another one!!!

6' Magic Shark Twin Fish, magenta nose and tail tint, grey tint bands, twin cedar stringers....
Resin doodles on deck, glass on twins. $930

Here's another Connelly that showed up down in La Jolla as well, this one is called the Magic Shark. Big ol' wide swallow tail twin should work real well for them fishy waves and those sharky surfers. Chomp some mush!

La Jolla gets some fancy Connelly logs!

10' x 24" x 3" Noosa 2, volan knee patch, yellow foam center band, cedar stringer, classic red rails and bottom tint. 1,350

9'8" x 24" x 2 3/4" Noosa 2, mushroom soup tint, triple cedar stringer. 1,370

Just got an email from our shop in La Jolla letting us know that they have a couple of really purdy lookin' Kevin Connelly Noosa 2 logs. Word on the beaches is that these things nose ride second to none. Mr. Connelly is one of California's most talented long board shapers and his boards are always impressive crafts to see. Here's a look at what's sleeping in Ja Lolla.

New Takayama facemelters!

Noah showed up on friday in his golden brown Chevrolet toy chest with stacks of sticks for us. Some new models, some hot mid lengths and some really really nice color works. Each one I pulled from the bag seemed to further melt my face from an intoxicating combination of stoke and disbelief. Here's a step by step process. To see all of the new boards go to the Takayama Inventory page. Caution: viewing these images and seeing our unreal selection of Takayama's may melt your face. Mitch's is not responsible for any aesthetic or cognitive damage recieved from exposure to these photos! Heheheh...... -Bloggins-
