2011 Ride Antic Snowboards

Here it is in all of its glory. The 2011 ride Antic Snowboard.I have seen this deck take on tons of names through the years. I may remember it as the profile, or even the decade. One thing for sure is that this is always one of my favorite models. It's stiff enough to have some pop, but forgiving enough that I can be a little lazy on it at the end of the day. They added low pro technology which is their reverse camber.
This is the do everything deck from ride. It's fun to play with in the park and stiff enough to free ride on. Great graphics this year as well. Stop in and check em out!

Never Summer Longboard Re Up

2 New Completes from the gang over at never summer came in today. the Blue one is the Norad, and the red one is the Tyrant. Both are super sick. these are sure to move quickly, so if you were waiting, now is the time to jump on them before they are gone. School is almost out, and you don't want to be the only kid on your block without a longboard.

Enjoy the ride.

Who is this masked man?

Seems like an old team rider stopped by today to skate the box. looks like his hat has fallen off during this top mistrial. Who could it be you ask? it's everyones favorite hillbilly, Andrew Griffiths. yep, if you haven't seen him, he is now back from Florida. look for him to be killing it wherever there are rails,boxes, and cold Beer.

John stopped in today and grabbed a new pair of Valo TV2's. We added the Bailey liner, as it felt better in the boot. He added his own featherlight frames and there you go. He skated the box today with Bear and Griffiths to test them out. Enjoy the new kicks. They are Rad.

Razors Aragon late release colorway

New colorway in the Superlight Aragon 3. looks like razors had some extra red parts laying around so they hooked up this skate and made it pop. Limited sizes available today.

New Santa Cruz Wood

What can santa Cruz possibly do to the Screaming Hand Graphic you ask? well, if it's Cinco de Mayo, they can put a moustache, and a sombrero on it and call it cinco de mano. Limited to 100 decks, you can be one of the few to own this silly deck. Also this eric Dressen is pretty sick as well.

Set up of the minute with Josh

Josh picked up the new Hyperlite State deck with Sprint bindings for the Low low Price of $299. I know what you are saying. That is wicked cheap for a great Hyperlite set up, and you are right. Hyperlite has lowered some price points this season, and there is a lot of bang for the buck.
Alpine is loaded with tons of great wakeboard and waterski goodies, so stop in and see what we have for your boat. You won't be disappointed.
