All I Want For Christmas #8

by Jeremy

If you grew up in the 1980′s, then perhaps your first introduction to a skateboard  was a thin piece of plastic nicknamed a “banana board” (I know mine was). It wasn’t too hard to stand on at a young age, but I can’t imagine fitting my size 13 Vans on it now. If you want to try to relive your youth (WARNING: This Could Be Painful), or introduce this curios art to a new generation of kids, then I give you the Vinyl Cruiser.

Brought to you by Jason Lee (just because he does Alvin & The Chipmunks movies doesn’t mean he isn’t still cool) and his skateboard company Stereo Sound Agency. The Vinyl Cruiser comes in six 80′s reminiscent colors and is touted as being stow-able in your backpack or locker. A friendly reminder: Skating on the same kind of deck you did when you were a kid does not mean your sprained wrist will heal as fast as it did when you were that kid.
