The Future of Skateboarding

Our crystal ball readings (also known as Mac) tell us that chinos will be the next big thing to blow up in the world of skate fashion... most likely the high-water ones that allow for just a peek at your nice dress socks underneath.



Not surprisingly, RVCA is already ahead of the game...
we have these RVCA chinos in stock now, but you'll have to get your dress socks down the street at Men's Warehouse.

Subterranean


The Subterranean DVD came out last week. The film by John Wolf has lots of footage from the East including the Boston area with local skaters. Radical.

Win one, Lose one



[+] Mac is back from his 3-week hiatus in Florida.
[-] Steve is gone to Las Vegas for the SIA Trade Show this week... as far as we know. However, we have reason to believe he might be working his other job as a male escort under the name "Kid Passion". If you have any further information on this, please contact the shop.

Corey Is Not Sorry



Later this summer, Steve & this kid Corey will be hosting a pool party.
Here's a glimpse of what that might be like...
watch the whole thing.

Free Stuff



If you want these frogskins, you'll have to win them. Super-limited (only 6 pairs ever made) & super-cool.
The good news for you is that you don't need any kind of talent or skill to win- just submit your name in the raffle here.
Two pairs will be given out... so figure you're one of the ten people who actually read this blog... 1/10... those odds aren't too shabby.

Tampa Am



The 2008 Tampa-Am contest that has been going on all weekend is entering the final round today.
If you didn't already know, there is a live broadcast on the 411 site: here!
On this page you can watch some best-trick footage as well.
Don't say we never did anything for you.

Pop Warner



Chances are you were a young football, baseball, soccer, hockey (etc.) player before you found skateboarding- which promptly ruined all of that. Ergo, somewhere deep down you really do care about what is going on in the sports world. Well stand proudly today, because the Patriots are 17-0 and we here at Natick do not feel guilty about jocking-out for the playoff game today. Goooooooooo Pats!

NEW and IMPROVED!!! Yeah, we're a little behind the 8-ball...



If you haven't noticed yet, or because we neglected to inform you, Eastern Boarder has reconstructed and revised the main website. New and improved features are product searches and reviews. Also new is MyEasternBoarder where you can start your own profile, save your favorite items, and email your list to friends and family in hopes that they will buy it for you because you deserve it. Almost everything online is at the store, and almost everything at the store is online, and in between there are a few stashed items that are unique to both.

Any Takers?

Really? Really??

First there were Hubba nightlights, then there were glow-in-the-dark Thunder trucks, and now... these.



Developed by some "Photon" company, these skateboards have rechargeable lights on them.
Here is a crazy silly video to demonstrate.

There Goes the Neighborhood





Hope you had a chance to stop by on Saturday to say goodbye to Mike.
He left on a plane early this morning in pursuit of Park City, Utah.
Him and some friends are leasing a house (pictured above) until the summer.
Word has it that his new digs are a short distance from the DC Mountain Lab.
Ah yes, living the dream.
Bon Voyage, Mike. See you in June.

That's right, it is 9 degrees Fahrenheit, which "feels like -4".
EB Natick has been sans heat for some months now, and consequently today it is 56 degrees inside the shop. Sort of like one of those ice hotels...
