Along with the Piet Mondrian - Nike Dunk Low SB, the 720 Degrees - Nike Dunk Low Pro SB (304292-062) which are set to release this May 2008 are also available at BNYCOnline. They show some love to the 1986 Skateboarding Arcade Classic 720 Degrees. 720 Degrees released in 1986 by Atari, and is one of the first skater games. As you can see, the game has definitely inspired the shoes from the vibrant colors to the checkered lines.

720 Degrees, or 720°, is a 1986 arcade game by Atari Games. 720°, a skateboarding game, is notable in that it is the first extreme sports video game, and has a unique timed structure that requires the player score points in order to keep the game going. The game’s name comes from the “ultimate” trick, turning a full 720° (two complete circles) in the air after jumping off a ramp. 720° has the player controlling a skateboarder ripping around a middle-class neighborhood. By doing jumps and tricks, the player can eventually acquire enough points to compete at a skate park. via Wikipedia
