It’s just starting to sink in how ridiculous the abundance of skatepark terrain is getting in Oregon. If you live here you get a little desensitized to it, but seriously, it’s amazing. Hood River is GOING OFF! Thanks to Mike Estes for the pics. You remember him right? He might think about coming back if we’re all nice to him. Considering some of the recent comment flame wars, it seems unlikely. Hey everyone, the best way to foil a comment crackpot is to not respond to the guilty party in the first place. Oops, I’m off topic on my own post. I must be some sort of communist, punk, whiny liberal, pad wearing, radical dog hating baby. Enjoy the pics of Hood River. Your body (of concrete) is a wonderland.
The hole is supposed to filled with grass.

Here’s some action shots for the locals.

i’m thinking Sleestock 4! Can your town handle a bunch of old drunks? Where’s the nearest camping / lurking spot?

Hood River became so fun with that bowl they built last winter, but your best park is Irrigon and now probably Pendelton because, even though your weather is better than mine it still sucks. at least the east is dry

Cold Ones is right. We’re here in the Bay Area and things are improving greatly but you guys are swimming in sick parks. Thanks for giving me something to drool over while I’m stuck at work.
