More Indoor

It’s Will Powers in the oft neglected D.O.S. bowl circa late 2004. Someone said they were resurfacing it. Anyone know if that’s true? I’d consult the web site but it looks like they haven’t updated it in a couple of years.

Danny Way to Kick Tony Hawk’s Ass?

Retarded UK video game magazine Edge declares Danny Way better than Tony Hawk. Well, at least it does in a short magazine graphic. The article is about an upcoming Danny Way video game called “Skate” which is also supposed to be Better than Tony Hawk.

Dogtown Era Over? Duh!

Ah the good old days. Remember that time when Heath Ledger threw all those surf boards at a young Tony Alva? It makes me want to move into a condo. Fortunately, the landlord of the locally famous building that housed the Zephyr Surf shop wants to see it developed into a mixed use facility; Strip […]

Missing In Action

Hey PDX locals, has anyone seen Jason lately? Sifting through some pics I came across this 2003 shot of him in his living room which he converted into a ramp. I haven’t seen him in a while. Over a year actually. More pics after the jump.

Baltic: Indoor ramp at Spank the Monkey art show

Monkey Spankers

I don’t know who first said “I don’t know art but I know what I like.“, but I like it when someone manages to get the money to build something skateable and pass it off for art. Apparently Dreamland feels the same way. Matt Sefton (See Newcastle feature) contributes another piece, this time a short […]

CBGB’s Second to Last Show

Handsome Dick Manitoba – What a great name for a guy fronting a band with the also great name of The Dictators. The impending death of CBGB’s is all over the web now. I’ve been ignoring most of it, but hey, how can I not post a pic of the Dictators who helped start the […]

Pier Gear

Just cause the park opens this weekend doesn’t mean you can rest on your laurels or ass, for that matter. Head on over to Skaters for Portland Skateboards and buy a Pier Park commemorative shirt, silkscreened poster, or a skateboard to help raise money to put a roof over the damn thing. It is in […]

Because a Day Without a Post…

Because a day without a post is lame. So here are some mediocre shots I took in 2004 at a sparsely attended non-test at Burnside.

What Do You Call This?

This is 2004 picture of everyone’s favorite ex-Donald local turned neo-Rastafarian, Donavan. Looks like he’s doing some sort of layback rock and roll, but then again I can’t remember what tricks are called these days, or other days for that matter. He’s at Newberg Ore on top of a good 10 feet or so of […]
