Spotlight: Toy Machine Skateboards – Decks and Beyond
Toy Machine Skateboards Logo - Skate or Die |
Toy Machine Skateboards has put out some sick skateboarding clips, and if you have been paying attention, then you already know. However, if you haven’t been paying attention at all, then you’re missing out on some of the clips that you definitely should check out today. Some of the team members on Toy machine skateboards right now include: Leo Romero, Daniel Lutheran, Josh Harmony, Collin Provost, Ed Templeton, Matt Bennett, Billy Marks, Jeremy Leabres, and Blake Carpenter. These guys have been representing for Toy Machine Skateboards hard, and you owe it to yourself to see what they’ve done on a skateboard in recent months. Especially some of the clips of Leo Romero and Daniel Lutheran tearing things up.
Toy Machine Skateboards has a ton of decks out right now. You can pick them up ranging from 30 bucks to upwards of 90 bucks for a complete. The last Toy Machine deck I owned was an Ed Templeton classic, but there’s so many on the market right now, that you have a ton of options to choose from. If you’re looking to pick up a new deck, and you want to represent or try to get on Toy Machine, then you should definitely get one of their decks, skate hard and film it. Then send it to them, and other companies. Whatever the case is, you can pick up decks here and get free shipping. Or you can visit your local skateboard shop to get in on the action. I for one prefer online, especially since I don’t have a local shop near me, and I know for a fact some shops are now selling via amazon. Anyways, Toy Machine is a perennial brand that isn’t going anywhere, so if you’re going to support skateboarding, especially pro models, then why not go with Toy Machine Skateboard decks? Seriously.

GX1000: Taiwan HD Skateboarding HD Video - Thrasher Magazine
Gx1000 Hits Taiwan |
Thrasher Magazine just put up the latest rundown from the GX1000 series of skateboarding videos. They were previously in Japan. This time around they are in Taiwan. The thing is, I don't know much about GX1000 or the brand they are reppin. I did manage to find a Tumblr page, and a Big Cartel page for merch. Other than that, I don't know much about the company, brand, or the video. Well, that's not completely true, I know that some of the riders include: Jake Johnson, Brian Delatorre, Al Davis, Stevie Perez, Ben Gore, and Yonnie Cruz. So there, at least now you know some of the riders are on Traffic, and what not. Either way, check this mess out after the jump.

Real Skateboards The Jesus Piece Peter Ramondetta Skateboard Deck – Out Now!
Real Skateboards The Jesus Piece Peter Ramondetta Skateboard Deck – Out Now!
Real Skateboards Decks and More Available Here |
Holy crap, Real Skateboards really puts one on with this deck. If you’re not familiar with Ramondetta, then you’ve been asleep for some time. Ramondetta has some killer tranny skills, and I’ve seen him rip with the Creature skateboards guys before. This deck is a more well-rounded skateboard for both transition and street skateboarding. I rode a Ramondetta deck for a minute, while I was learning how to manage a skateboard bowl. Real Skateboards put this out alongside others in the Jesus Piece series, and this one is a bit on the evil side. The dark side, if you will, is stellar here and definitely something you gotta watch out for. If you’re not religious or anything, Ramondetta’s skateboard models are going to be right up your alley. Real Skateboards really does well here, I love it.

Real Skateboards The Jesus Piece Chima Skateboard Deck – Out Now!
Real Skateboards The Jesus Piece Chima Skateboard Deck – Out Now!
Real Skateboards Decks and More Available Here |
Real Skateboards always has quality decks. But they outdid themselves with this one, in my opinion. There’s something really cool about the drawing and colors on this one. This is from the Real Skateboards “Jesus” piece line up. It’s something that you are absolutely going to enjoy overall. It’s a classic look from Real, and the colorway and drawing really is something else. I like the Egyptian nod to the piece, and it’s really a nice colorway. Chima’s a great skater, if you haven’t seen his stuff before, dude can rip. Real Skateboards has a killer team, hands down some of the best riders right now in skateboarding.

What Skateboard Style Should I Buy – Real Skateboards Edition – How To Pick A Board
Real Skateboards Decks and More Available Here |
Real Skateboards Roll Forever Busenitz Skateboard Deck – Out Now!
Real Skateboards Decks and More Available Here |
Real Skateboards has provided me with some great decks in the past. This time around they have a series out that you may recognize, but others may not. This deck is from that series, and it features Busenitz’s pro model. I like this particular option because of the coffin deck graphic. I used to ride the coffin deck from Creature, if you remember that one, and saw this, and had to comment on it. I love the sunburst colorway, the coffin deck calling you to ride forever, it’s all good here. Real Skateboards really knocks it out of the park with the release of this skateboard, if I do say so myself. You’re going to find that this is more of a cruiser, than a trick deck, but that depends on your preferred sizing.

What Size Skateboard Deck Should I Ride?
Does Skateboard Size Matter? It Doesn't Really |
Seriously, it’s a matter of preference. In my teenage years I rode a 7.75 x 31.5 all the time. Then I bought an 8.25 x 32 and thought it was too big. I ended up buying a second board at 7.87 x 32 and that was good for a while. But now? I’m riding an 8 x 32. The 8 is a good middle ground for me. However, if you are going to be doing a lot of flip tricks, then I would suggest going down to 7.75 x 31.5 or so.
If you’re going to be hitting a bowl or going to hit vert, you should go with 8.5 x 31.5 or so. If you’re cruising the streets, then get a 9 x 31 or shorter. However, you can do just about anything with all of these boards.
Recently, I saw Braille Skateboarding put up a video on this topic. It’s something that I absolutely agree with. Aaron from Braille Skateboarding talks about the size differential and shows you how he skates with each different site. I can affirm that it’s definitely a positive. I ride an 8 when I skate, do flip tricks, and grind rails. If I’m going to hit a mini ramp, I’ll ride an 8.5. If I go for a longer ride, I ride a Krooked 9-inch cruiser. I'm 5'10" tall, and 225 pounds, and my shoe size is a size 12. I have different boards for different things.
Anyways, check out this video for more of an explanation.
5Boro Skateboards In Paris Skateboarding Video
I’m late on this, but hey, I can’t always be on top of everything that gets pushed out, as I’m just trying to find stuff to share with others. Anyways, I posted up some 5Boro Skateboards earlier, and wanted to complement that with a video from the 5Boro Skateboards team. That being said, this is a little older, from last year, but it’s the team skateboarding through Paris, France. I’ve always wanted to go there and skate, but alas, my skate career has me writing for a living, and not necessarily hitting the streets as hard. Maybe one day I can sponsor a team and take them to the spots, and I can film, etc. Whatever the case is, here’s 5Boro Skateboards skateboarding in the streets of Paris, France.
Stoked on the 5Boro skateboards video, decks, and what not? Make sure that you pick up some of their boards by going here. Save some money, get the decks, and skate your city. Document it, and drop me a line, I’ll share it. But first, buy some 5Boro Skateboards here.

This release from 5Boro Skateboards is called the “Caliente” series. Monica Kim Garza is an artist that paints curves, and it’s evident here. You should seriously look into the artwork she produces, it’s impressive to say the least. These skateboards are just the beginning.

Kevin Coakley's Traffic Skateboards Part via Thrasher Skate Video

For the release of Stereo Skateboards Jazz 101, the company collaborates with Mark Penxa. His work is seen here with Jazz Icons on the decks. If you’re a collector of skateboards, and like putting them on the wall, here’s a set of 5 that you’re going to want to pick up, no doubt. These 5 skateboards from Stereo Skateboards are nothing short of impressive. I for one am going to be picking up all 5.

Stereo Skateboards Jordan Hoffart Presented by The Berrics Video
There’s a cinematic quality to the video that The Berrics put out featuring Stereo Skateboards rider Jordan Hoffart. Stereo Skateboards is one of those brands that I’ve always liked, but don’t hear a lot of people talking about. Their team is pretty solid, and of course Jason Lee’s name is still a good one to throw around the skateboarding world. Chris Pastras is great too. But they can’t hold down the team on their own, which is why guys like Jordan get in the mix. Well, dude can rip. With this video, you get a feel for the skateboarding that he does, and it’s just tech with a mix of gusto. Stereo Skateboards and The Berrics really do well in representing themselves here. Jordan Hoffart is killer, the quality of the video is really good, and the tricks are varied. You have flip tricks, you have gaps, rails, etc. 6 minutes and you’re down for the Stereo Skateboards that’s for sure.
Make sure to pick up Stereo Skateboards decks and more by going here and shopping online.

Free Skateboards
Friends of Street Skate Kings out there, we’ve decided to give back. We will be giving away skateboards later this month. Perhaps we will give out some more prizes, but for now, I know boards are hard to come by sometimes, so we’re going to be throwing out skateboards to those that need em. Not sure how to frame the contest yet, but we’ll work out details. If interested in free boards etc, drop me a line, comment, and let me know how we should throwdown a contest. All for the cause.

Jeremy Leabres Re-Education Toy Machine Skateboards Deprocessing Video
Well, I posted a Toy Machine skateboards deck for Jeremy Leabres, from the toon series, and decided to go ahead and post a video part from him so that you kids out there can see what his skate style. I gotta admit, the Toy Machine skateboards crew is sick in their video updates. This one comes from January 2015, and Thrasher put it out. I like the fact that in this video series there’s no “slo-mo” or any camera tricks. This isn’t the Lakai video. It’s just a throwback to a simpler time, yet it’s modern. This should get you stoked on Toy Machine skateboards and the caliber of skateboarding that Jeremy Leabres and the whole Toy Machine crew are putting out right now. I know I am.
Thinking about ordering Toy Machine Skateboards online? Do so here, and save on decks, clothing, and get free shipping for your troubles. Seriously, get 1 or 2 decks, but first watch this video from Toy Machine and Thrasher Magazine.
