Zazzle.com is a well built online portal that allows users to register for an account, upload their artwork and sell it on a number of different retail products. However, while they still offer lame mouse pads and coffee mugs like your local print shop they also provide the ability to sell skateboards with your own work on them. Similar to what www.cafepress.com has done for clothing, Zazzle is attempting to do for skateboards.. and uhm.. mouse pads, key chains, aprons and much more.. but most importantly skateboards.

Not only can you attempt to make a few bucks selling some boards you sketched on napkin at your local coffee shop, you can also browse from millions of custom boards uploaded from big profile names like Rob Dyrdek and OBEY to independent and local artists.

I stumbled upon some creative skateboard designs while browsing Deviant Art the other day. The series to your left is called Oxidizzy. It is offered on Zazzle across their North American Maple line of board construction. I like the repeating patterns and urban style that Oxidizzy pulls off on this set, they definitely hit a trend in the market with these illustrations. You can check out more information on their website www.oxidizzy.com

So next time your sitting inside because your best friend ditched you for that cute brunette you had your eye on the other day, check out the Zazzle Skateboard collection for what seems like a never ending supply new board designs and go hit the streets on some new ink.

Oh yeah, and if you or someone you know has purchased a board off Zazzle leave us a comment, I’d love to get a first hand review of the actual board quality and construction.
