I keep harping about the time I first discovered Toy Machine skateboards. It was in a Big Brother skateboard magazine. If you know the magazine, then you know how crude and humorous it was, and how it is a legendary zine of tomfoolery. Anyways, the first magazine from skateboarding that I purchased was that one, and now that they are gone, I wonder if 2020 could even handle the brand of humor. Thrasher is still going strong, but I wonder when they will fold? Hopefully there's enough gusto to get them not to fold, but who knows. The first ad for Toy Machine skateboards that I remember said something about how it was the
Blood Sucking Toy Machine, and that we should all bow down, and then there was the monster horns, and art by Ed Templeton. Fun stuff for parents to read through, luckily my parents let me keep the magazine never truly reading the contents. I recall the same magazine had an article about Jason Ellis, pro skater, but anyways, that has nothing to do with the Provost Nihon Skateboard Deck. That deck is awesome, and it is featured up here, or above all this text that no one is going to read. It's now out via the Blood Sucking Toy Machine skateboard company. You should get it, skate it, or put it on your wall.
