Not that snowboarders need another reason to be distracted, but RED and Frends have teamed up on a Helmet with sound.
RED’s team favorite gets juiced up with the Frends music experience. Audio inspired and designed with the Air Band 180 Fit System, removable ear pads and internal padding for a lower profile fit—Make Frends with the Hi-Fi.
As the video suggests, Danny Davis thinks it’s a pretty nice set up. . . even for driving trucks.
After a stellar opening party Saturday, January 7, 2012 at the LA HUF store product from the collaboration between HUF, DLX, and the Japanese wood sculptor Haroshi is finally dropping.
Haroshi is a self taught artist born in 1978 and currently based out of Tokyo, Japan. Combining years of experience as a jewelry craftsman with his long-time passion for skateboarding, Haroshi has developed a unique ability to salvage and hand-carve stacks of used skateboard decks into extraordinary three-dimensional wooden sculptures. Juxtaposing the rough, worn rails of the used decks with the polished forms of their finished product, Haroshi demonstrates and uncanny capability to create beauty out of destruction.
Click the link for a closer look at the t-shirts, snapbacks, sweats, shoes, wheels, and DLX decks that are part of this stunning collab.
Our Vans Waffle Sole iPhone case arrived today and it’s like a shoe for our phone. The case, which appears to be all silicone, slipped right on. It is not a rigid, snap on case, but it hugs the phone nicely. We were worried that the case would make it difficult to slide the phone in and out of our pockets smoothly, but so far that has not been a problem.
The cases are currently out of stock in the Vans store, but you can keep checking. We don’t really know why we’re so into this case, but we are. And judging by the traffic these posts are getting, we’re not alone.

Sometimes the whole “action sports timepiece” thing can get a little trite. Brightly colored plastic, tide charts, shrill digital alarms, you know the drill. That’s probably why this new exclusive collection of limited edition Nixon watches from Barneys New York are so damn refreshing. Just look at them. Handsome, refined, classic, and yes, expensivo. The Automatic Chronograph on the left half of the photo retails for a cool $4,750.00. Luxury, indeed. The one on the right is only $550, but then it’s the cheap one, isn’t it?
“The 686 Scion Numeric is a dream come true,” says Michael Akira West, president and creative director at 686. “What better way to celebrate our twentieth anniversary by doing something that’s never been done before? Every part of this build has a story and a separate product that it was inspired from. I’m psyched we were able to show it to the world, our way.”
The car will reportedly sport New Balance tires, a Dragon Goggle windshield and a Bern hemet for a roof. Guess we’ll have to see it before we make any comments. The car will debut at the SIA Show on January 26, 2011. So we guess you’ll have to wait until then to see it live and in person.

Available now is the series of limited-edition, youth-sized Chopper snowboards that showcase eight different iconic images from the original Star Wars trilogy, including Yoda, Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker and the original movie poster.
We’re kind of bummed they don’t make these in some man-sized boards. Do kids this small even know what Star Wars is? Follow the jump for all the details. [click to continue…]
