    i will be riding newberg this afternoon.

  2. Crap! So how was the big day? It can’t still be going on, is it? is it? Crap!

  3. Crazy. hundreds of kids. Peanut bowl session was on. Finley, Nukula, that long-haired kid who just kills it, likewise the longboard guy. Tobin, Chaz Pineda, Tom Miller, Marek, Troy,Molly Ashley, Kim, Sarah. Not all at once though. It was harder with a big crowd. Oh was there something else to skate? I didn’t notice.

  4. Wally Inouye was there too. Seeing him skate was the highlight for me. I kept flashing back to magazine still shots… “That long-haired kid who just kills it” was also killing it in the other bowl. He was the clear standout from what I saw, most board slapping, hoots, people stopping to watch, etc.

    The place is great. It even looked like the street kids were having fun, but I wouldn’t know for sure because they don’t smile, slap their boards, hoot, or really pay much attention to each other at all. Interesting dynamic between the left and right sides of the park.
