Benji Bacon
Colin at Bacon Skateboards forwarded a link to a Benji Galloway interview on Skateboarder Magazine’s website. Check out the two photo sequences: one a backside-lipslide over the steps at Donald and the other a backslide-tailslide over some other pool steps. Sick! Benji is an amazing skater and has been incredible to watch in the Oregon Trifecta. He won the 2005 series. Bacon’s Southern Slaughter Tour video also looks pretty insane.

It is a sick video. Benji is killing every spot. His switch runs are insane. FS Hurricane at the Ghetto Banks. Johnny Turgeson is like a young Dan Drehobl, stylewise.
Love the intro to the video. Executed perfectly. I was a little disappointed they didn’t carry out the “tribute” for the whole video.
Yeah, that’s a good crew on that team. Did Reeves jump ship for Bacon or is he just a guest? Johnny Turgeson keeps getting better. That’s OK, I knew him before he was cool. Har har. Check out this pic of him from 2005.
That’s some good skating. Bacon is sizzlin’.
I finally got the thing downloaded and watched it. Damn, that’s some good video. Best thing I’ve seen in a while.
