New Board and Details about The Beast!

Today Original's YouTube page released a new video with great footage and details about The Beast (and a new Apex 40). The video:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OW-J2pQrlsw&feature=feedu
Says that it will be available in rocker concave and W concave, and is available in 38'' and 41''. The video said it'll be released in September.

*There is also a little side note about an Apex 40 cameo. Which i believe was seen briefly at the end of the video (last two pictures). Is it a longer Apex with double kicks? I guess we'll have to wait a few weeks.

Brian Bishop and the Beast

I found a new video today of an interview/skate session with Brian Bishop about the beast. Does this mean it will be released soon? I hope so but I guess for now we'll just have to wait to see. Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjxua24DBlk&feature=player_embedded#at=28
Here are some pics:

Original Beast41 Shape and Griptape

I found some clips that showed the shape of the board. It is 41 inches long, a skinny nose and tail with slight kicks, crazy concave, fat front and back where you put your feet with a slightly smaller center. It is a drop through truck mount deck so you can't use Original trucks. (There are rumors that they're creating freestyle trucks that will be able to be put on this board.)

Concave and slight nose kick.

Original Beast41 Graphics

Again from this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMgISCDdXWM I found some peaks at the graphics. To me it looks like one will have a lion on it and one will have a gorilla on it.



New Original longboard

The Beast 41 from Original Skateboards has been seen in many new longboard videos lately, but it has not been released to the public just sponsors. It's shape is somewhat similar to the Rayne Vendetta.

Here are some photos from this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMgISCDdXWM
