Does that board...have a carpet?

Recently, i was browsing the web and i came across something i never thought would exists.  "Does that longboard have a shag rug?", was the first thing that came out of my mouth.  I didn't even think it was possible for a longboard to have a rug on the top instead of grip tape.  It is called the Gold Coast Heavy Pile Longboard and i am in love.  It is designed for you to be able to cruise barefoot on a nice comfy shag carpet.  It look incredibly retro with a Volkswagen van as the graphic.  It even comes equipped with a hair pick to keep your carpet looking nice and fresh.  The complete board usually sells for 175.00.  The stock board comes with the wonderful Orangatang wheels and Gullwing trucks.  


In the light of finding such a unique awesome board, i decided to see what other crazy boards i could find.  Santa Cruz makes a board called the "Screaming Foot", and that exactly what it is.  The entire deck is shaped like a giant blue foot.  The graphic on the bottom is a mouth that looks like its screaming.  The overall board is fun unique and ridiculous.  The board is so flat it already feels broken in.  It is great for flip tricks and it has great control.  


I also wanted to take the time in the post to point a blog that is also unique and interesting just like these two longboards.  Her name is Brie Pazda and her blog is called "Spoken Thoughts of the Unseen World".  She writes about unique topics that are insightful 
and interesting.  I suggest you take a look for yourself.
