Set up of the Minute with Miriam-Duff Beer Edition

Miriam came into the store with her kids who were looking for two simple items...a Neff Beanie and a Triple 8 Helmet, which was taken care of in about 30 seconds. It had been a while since she'd been in and before too long there was some wandering over in the Longboard section. According to the sons, Mom had a longboard, but the time was WAY past due for another. After looking over and test-riding a couple, once the new Simpsons Duff Pintail was shown, it was a no-brainer (the built-in bottle opener didn't hurt, either, which is good for opening a Duff, Duff Light, Duff Dry...or an imported Düff, if you're feeling fancy).

They're off to California and taking along with the new Pintail for riding some West Coast relaxing and riding. Wherever the cruising is done, we're sure that there'll be clouds parting with blue skies behind them!

Woo-Hoo!!!

Ah, beer, my one weakness. My Achille's heel, if you will.
--Homer Simpson


If you thought the idea of the Internet being on Computers now was amazing (thank you Compu-Global-Hyper-Mega-Net), then you're going to be ASTOUNDED when you see what the good folks at Santa Cruz have done, combining The Simpsons and skateboarding.


If you're reading this, there's a good chance you're familiar with the hilarity that goes on and around Evergreen Terrace in the Metropolis of Springfield. Santa Cruz has put together a series of boards documenting some of this greatness in both Cruzer boards and a sweet Duff Beer Pintail longboard.

For those of you who have felt that the antics of Bart Simpson (or the nefarious "El Barto") are right up your alley, check out the Bart Mod Cruzer ($131.95...just keep it off Springfield Gorge):

This board comes with a fun Sticker Pack, too


If that's not your style, you can get your roll on with either the Duff Beer Can or a Homer ($144.95):



OR...

If you're looking for more of a longboard ($158.95):



(yes...that's a bottle opener behind the front truck)


The Coupe de Grace, however, is the Rob Roskopp themed Classic Sized deck ($74.95)



(also available in a mini-Cruzer complete $131.95)


(Donuts. Is there anything they can't do? mmmmmm......Donuts)

I don't plan on these being here for long, don't be saying "D'OH!!!"
