Pt.1: Prisma Skateboards and Paradox Griptape Review (Talking and Setting Up)

More info than you need (all the info I got): Filmer's Journal So, what are we looking at? This review is focused on two related items... a deck and the griptape stuck to the top of it. The deck is from a small, Connecticut based independent (and skater-owned) company called Prisma Skateboards. The boards are pressed in Pennsylvania (Penn's Wood), and the artwork is done in the company's home state. Upon first glance, the deck seems well made, has a medium concave, a pretty beefy tail for a board its size, and a very clean, bright heat-transfer graphic that looks painted-on, versus some much poorer quality heat transfers I've seen in the past. The weight of the board seems appropriate for its dimensions... not weighty and clunky, not feathery feeling like Balsa wood. At the time of this video, decks and grip are $35. Call 'em up at (203)-561-1146, or email luke.prisma@gmail.com for any more info about them or ordering or anything like that. The griptape... came in a box with a very large sticker, and a pack of condoms (seen here: www.youtube.com ). The griptape looks like griptape. It uses "Power Balance" brand holograms that supposedly do something for you. Okey dokey. For more information about the griptape, the website to visit is www.paradoxgrip.com or you can search for paradox at the Slap Mag forums (http and read all of the company owner's claims, as well as my sometimes hostile remarks concerning the innacurate scientific (ie: pseudoscientific) explanations and ...

Pt.2: Prisma Skateboards and Paradox Griptape Review (Skating and Summary)

One more time, just in case... here are the company contacts: Prisma Skateboards: phone- (203)-561-1146 email- luke.prisma@gmail.com Paradox Griptape: www.paradoxgrip.com I'm not affiliated with either company, so please direct any product specific questions to them. The board treated me well... I popped down a few stairs, a loading dock, some banks and ledges, and by the time I brought it to some transition (ramps), I noticed that it was still poppy... no sogginess to be reported. The entire setup was relatively light (nothing crazy, just a good weight) so I found it to be really responsive and reactive, meaning it didn't take a whole lot of effort to make the board do what you wanted it to. Good and snappy. The griptape... perfectly fine as a grip. I rode it with regular cupsole shoes *and* vulcanized soles, and didn't notice any issues. If I wore cupsoles, there was still plenty of friction to maintain a sure-footing, and when wearing vulcanized soles I didn't feel completely glued to the board. As far as the magical holographic Power Balance claims... I skated just like I always do, with no noticable improvement in balance, stamina, sense of well being, good vibrations, or anything remotely related to anything like that. I felt friction, which is what griptape is for. If the "technology" is as powerful as some people claim, then surely it woud have convinced me otherwise? I'm open to options here 1. Power balance holograms dont work on me. 2. This hologram stuff is ...

Not dead yet: Another thank you, and some upcoming stuff (like a video before the video).

THERE IS NO SKATING IN THIS VIDEO! Read the info for more... info... ? Brainfart! This video was made last night (6.08.09) while staying in a hotel room in the opposite corner of my state (during a work trip). In this clip, I mention two products that I'm preparing a review for... Prisma Skateboards out of Connecticut, and Paradox Griptape out of the California bay area. I mention & show some stuff I like, both directly and indirectly skate related. The video was recorded on a MacBook Pro, I show the Sony HDR-HC9 camera (retailed at about $1600 USD when I got it), a LaCie 1 terabyte usb/FireWire 400 external hard drive ($160-ish), the Pig skate tool ($15-20), some Indy Lows, Spitfire Streetburner wheels, Spitfire bearings, and some really stupid condoms. I know there aren't actually any "intelligent condoms," but here I prove that they can indeed be pretty stupid. I also announce the nex video, which isn't epic, but it's a pretty neat flick... hopefully it'll be up in about two or three days. Thanks again to EVERYONE that's subscribing and just wandering onto my vids... I really like talking about skate stuff, and I consider everyone of you my homies and homettes. Thanks for being as active and awesome as you've been... I'm working hard on delivering some more stuff! PS Blog: www.grimcity.com MySpace: www.myspace.com/vectornerd Facebook: Just look me up!
