Rayne Mini (just in!)

I found a cool thread on the fish about a new Rayne board coming out! Right now they're only selling at the factory in Canada I think. Here's some pics courtesy of 2011 Rayne Mini Facebook page:

in comparison to nemesis

The specs are: 

Length: 24 inches

Width: 8.5 inches

Wheelbase: 19.5 inches

I heard these decks are just chopped factory botches, but who cares! they're still pretty awesome! 

Here's a video of Reese Boykin (?) being a boss on the new deck.

Misc. Post Huzzah

Hi all,

I've been looking at bushings lately. Thanks to motionboardshop's nifty bushing selector, I think I've found a good setup. I'm thinking of Venom Super Carves 81a on the roadside, and Venom Barrels SHR 80a boardside. I'm not 100% on them yet, I dunno haha.

I've been watching Greener Pastures on da 'tube recently. I like it a bunch. Here's the latest vid ep 4:

I found a prototype pic of the 2012 wolfshark graphic somewhere on the fish. I'll have to dig through threads to find it again. It was pretty cool.

I'm still stoked about my board coming in the mail. I think it's supposed to come tomorrow-ish. I won't open it until the day of x-mas though haha. I've been doing a buncha christmas shopping with dad for my mom.

Exams in school are almost over, which = more longboard time which is good. Over the break KP and I are gonna bomb tons of hills! I can't wait.

The Good and the Evil

Today was a pretty good day. KP and I went skateboarding thru the 'hood and cruised a bit.

We also went looking for some good hills when a tragedy happened. ---- So we're just cruising down a mid slope, we see some bird turd on the sidewalk. Turning away from the turd, next thing I know, I hear screeching and scraping and my board is at a weird angle. I hit a dead stop. I look back and see an Orange 4Prez flying through the air. Apparently, my wheel randomly decided to go on vacation and left me with a useless board. Thankfully, I didn't get hurt and I found my wheel. Sadly, I lost a speedring, bearing (sadness), and some other hardware.

I went to da Surf n Sail and he fixed it all up for 2 bucks, but I have 3 bones reds and some random blue bearing now. Odd.

I bought a cool volcom hat also, but I can't find a pic of it. If I find one I'll post it.

Probably no skateboarding tomorrow (sadness) cuz of homework. oh wellz

Christmas List

Okay, it's Christmas season. I know my mom won't buy me 60 dollar trucks, so the Gullwing Stalkers can be counted out of my list. But(a conjunction at the beginning of sentence 'cause I'm a rebel) here's my list:
P.S. I highlighted the longboarding stuff.
1. Retro ZigZags.
2.Nike Kobe 6 special edition.
3. Classic vans.
4. A bunch of hats that I don't feel like explaining.
5. Neff t-shirt.
