Harrisburg BCSA contest photos

Colin Walsh (rules) took his camera to the BCSA contest at Harrisburg, Oregon on the 4th of July. Check out the shots. Colin, looks like you’ve got some intermittent problems with the image sensor on your camera. It may be related to shooting into the sun. I know my D-70 gives me some weird green streaks in similar situations sometimes.

    42 riders and there’s only multiple shots of the same people doin the same stuff? I guess handplants and no pop early grab airs ,were the most advanced tricks that got thrown.

  4. That invert on the tight side wall is sick!

    I wanted to take pictures of interesting shit, like boobs, wierd old people and skateboarding, pictures of some kid doing kickflips over a bank are not intersting. plus i just wanted to have fun and get wasted, which i accomplished. street skating is dead, vert is alive, I DONT KNOW- go suck on it.

    No I’m kiddin, the handplant on gnarly wall was amazing,and maybe if there was only one of the super hesh. Was an awesome event just was expecting more of “dead street”. I mean who thinks gap up noseblunt pop in on capsule, oliie late shuv over the pyramid, fakie full cab, switch hardflips, noliie big heels, wall ride back 5-0 brick bank to ledge, etc, Have any life …. Right?

  11. i got some more pics just loaded them ill try to send em randys’ way soon

    Kilwag~ did u ever fix your sensor, this is coming up in all of my shots and i dont want to send my camera into nikon and not get it back before TRIFECTA, have u sent anything to them before? thanks for any advice

  13. Colin, (thanks for the pics) – Nope, I never sent it in. It happened a handful of times and I never got around to it while it was under warranty. My camera is about to die too. These things aren’t nearly as durable as a film camera.

    My advice.. send it in. If you don’t get it back in time for the trifecta, you can always buy one the day before from Best Buy or Frys, and then return it. (CHECK THE RETURN POLICY FIRST!) That’s bad advice that I shouldn’t be giving in public…

  14. You could just run on over to Circuit City and grab one….. oh wait…

    fakie full cab? huh? wouldnt that just be a cab

  16. skaterhusseindave on July 8, 2009 - Reply

    Thanks Danimal, and remember kids, snowboarders can’t do half or full cabs cuz they’re OLLIES!!!

  17. colinwalshrules on July 9, 2009 - Reply

    well, im probobly going to send it in after trifecta. i have no job and about 90$ in my bank account, so buying one is out of the question, but circuit city legally cant chase you if you are off their property.. i could upgrade to a D90…. thanks for the advice.

    collin, on days i’m working on my DIY, I ‘m paying 10$ an hour for manual labor….

  19. colinwalshrules on July 9, 2009 - Reply

    i’ll work all day (831) 359 8388. im going to the hippie fair this weekend in search of a princess. and possibly a poo facorty session on sunday, after that im down to dig, pour, lift, sift, anything you name it, i’ll attempt to do it. give me a call whenever.

  20. nweyesk8….if your paying $10 an hour for manual labor. Is it still DIY, and If you have money to burn. Can you send some my way. I need more money for my bowl…

  21. Gabe killed it. If you land a 270 over a hip you would think it would at least get 3rd. Just say no to early grabs

    Well concrete warefare riddle me this, If you get a group of professional park builders to come in with a concrete truck and do all the float and finish in a day, is it still a DIY? MC has a rad pool now, I know he personally sweated a lot during the whole process, but how much of the overall work can he claim as a DIY vs all the help that others put into it and made it a community effort. Maybe not a public community bowl, but his would certainly qualify as a porland skater community project in the end. Plus it seems if I don’t pay somebody on occasion, I am totally doing it myself at the hardest times. I never said I have money to burn, but if it is an issue of moving 100 cinder blocks by myself vs paying someone 10$ an hour to move 50 of them, then I actually get more work done in the end….Just takes a little longer to come up with material monies is all.

  23. nweyesk8…I know I was just messing with you. In my opinion if your the one doing most the work it’s a DIY. Even if you pay someone to come in and do some of the manual labor or finishing work. I just wish I had some money to pay for some. I have been doing most my bowl by myself. I’m down on the coast. I don’t have an army of skater’s to come help like MC did up in Portland. Shit around here when we built Coos Bay’s park. All the skater’s did around here was complain that we weren’t building what they wanted. So they didn’t even help build there own park. I would help you for free just to skate your new bowl, but I have a lot on my plate right now and you live 3 hours from me. I respect anyone that takes it apon them self to build shit to skate. It’s hard work, but well worth it in the end. Good luck on your project.
