A multiple tube, multiple lights effects neon or fluorescent lighting system for a skateboard produces a variety of controlled light effects and combinations. A pair of high strength colored protective transparent elongated casings house the light tubes. The casings are removably attached in a highly visible position on the side edges of a skateboard or under the skateboard adjacent to the side edges. The casings are secured by industrial strength mating hook and loop fasteners.

What is claimed is: 1. A variable lighting system in protective casings removably secured at the edges of a skateboard by high strength removable connectors, the system comprising: at least one pair of elongated light admissive casings fabricated of shock resistant and break resistant synthetic material allowing light to pass through the material while resisting damage from skateboard activity, the at least one pair of elongated light admissive casings mounted adjacent to an edge of a skateboard below the top surface of the skateboard to be visible to others in the vicinity of the skateboard while not interfering with the feet of a user on the skateboard; at least two light emitting tubes housed within each of the casings spaced apart along the length of the casings; a self contained battery power source for the light emitting tubes housed within each of the casings, so that the power source is removable with the casings; at least one means for controlling the at least two light emitting tubes in each of the casings operable from an exterior of the casings, the at least one means for controlling producing variable lighting effects in the light emitting tubes including at least one of the lighting effects taken from the list of lighting effects comprising individual steady light, multiple simultaneous stead lights, individual Hashing light, simultaneous coordinated flashing lights, alternating flashing lights, sequential flashing lights, reverse flashing lights, one directional flashing lights, multiple directional flashing lights thereby providing a variety of lighting options and variable lighting effects to enhance the visual effects of the lighted skateboard in action; at least one pair of industrial strength mating hook and loop fasteners attached between each of the casings and the skateboard for removably mounting the casings in a visible location in the vicinity of an outer perimeter of the skateboard with at least one of the casings on each of at least two sides of the skateboard, the industrial strength mating hook and loop mating fasteners extending over a length and width of a side of each of the casings positioned between each of the casings and the skateboard so that the casings will not be knocked off of the skateboard during skateboard activity and so that the casings are removable by a user without the need for tools to enable high impact edge riding on the skateboard without the casings when desired, and replaceable by the user without the need for tools for producing the variable lighting effects when desired, the industrial strength mating hook and loop fasteners not readily visible behind each of the casings, thereby providing a variable lighting system in protective casings removably secured at the edges of a skateboard by high strength removable connectors. 2. The system of claim 1 wherein the at least two light emitting tubes comprise colored neon light tubes. 3. The system of claim 1 wherein the at least two light emitting tubes comprise colored fluorescent light tubes. 4. The system of claim 1 wherein the power source comprises a battery source positioned in a section of each of the casings adjacent to the light emitting tubes and the at least one means for controlling the at least two light emitting tubes in each of the casings comprises at least one manual control device communicating between the power source and the light emitting tubes. 5. The system of claim 1 wherein each of the casings comprises a colored transparent cylinder. 6. The system of claim 1 wherein each of the casings comprises a colored translucent cylinder. 7. The system of claim 1 wherein each of the casings comprises a high strength nylon cylinder. 8. The system of claim 1 wherein one of the casings is mounted on each of two side edges of the skateboard. 9. The system of claim 1 wherein one of the casings is mounted underneath the skateboard on each of two sides of the skateboard immediately adjacent to the side edge of the skateboard,
