Glow in the Dark Penny Skateboard Video

A little cheesy but I found the glow in the dark penny board video. Anyone else know of any good ones? Not a huge fan of this one.

This was one of my favorite entry's from one of the recent video comp's that penny skateboards had. Really creative edit. I'm now in search of one that shows the penny glow in the dark board.

What can really be done with a Penny

Just like I've been trying to say in past posts, Penny boards are truly sick, and above all else, affordable. This is just a tiny taste of what can go on when you're on a Penny skateboard.

Not just your normal board.


So not going to lie, until lately I've been pretty against Penny boards and before these past couple of months I've been sort of biased, because looking at them, you think, "What's so special about a little plastic board". At first glance they don't look anything short of a simple cruiser, and to be honest, it's them being a simple cruiser that makes them fly off the shelves, but it doesn't stop there. Penny skateboards are more than your average cruiser, in fact, I've taken mine in the bowls, on the pipes, in ditches, down grass hills. I can even do most street tricks I'd do on my other board and it's something about doing those things on these miniature cruisers that's makes it all the more fun. You probably wouldn't think that you could do so much on such a small piece of plastic, I know I didn't, but pick one up and you surely won't be disappointed.

Who says longboards have to be long? Penny skateboards are amazing little contraptions that are extremely portable, made of plastic, and while still not exactly not all that great for the environment the boards can be recycled once they break (if it ever does). To top things off, since they're plastic, you can hit the pool or the beach and get on your penny right after, even barefoot, since there's no rough or abrasive grip to tear up your feet. These boards are absolutely great for people who don't expect much out of their boards except to get from place to place, and with the lightweight plastic and smaller sized decks they make city riding a breeze, and to top everything off, they're dirt cheap and come in a variety of colors, what's not to to love?

Penny pink/purple/cyan longboard

Penny skateboards while they may not look like much are an absolute blast to ride around, and are ridiculously cheap compared to a lot of boards that are just used for cruising. They're super convenient  and really easy to stash away, in fact, they even fit in my Jansport backpack. Although they can't compete on a competitive level with the bigger boards, if cruising is all you're about or you just like to fool around in the park or just enjoy shredding things a little out of the ordinary, than a penny is right up your alley.
