Battle Ground Locals
As we were pulling up to the park yesterday I remarked how small this park seems now, compared to the vast expanse it felt like when it first opened. Battle Ground, Washington has a lot to offer, at least in terms of skateparks. I took some photos yesterday, catch them after the jump.
Battle Ground Locals: Two Taylors of one City
OK, I only got two names, both of them were Taylor. Unless that’s the joke they play on photographers. “If anyone asks your name, tell them it’s Taylor.” To the rest of you, I apologize. If you know a name, please leave it in the comments. Update: Got the names, thanks to Dallas. Horizontal shots can be enlarged.
This is Chris Grasser.
Chris Grasser
Jed.
Here’s one Taylor
Here’s the second Taylor. This is a transfer up and over the barrier. I caught one in a better position, but there’s a guy directly behind him that confuses the image.
I think I was starting to annoy the videographer by poaching all his action. At least I stayed out of his way. This is KB.
Horrible shot of a nice big backside spin. KB.
And then there was this dinosaur clogging up the session like a flock of birds in a US Airways jet. Stop pretending you’re young before someone has to crash land in the river! Oh wait, that’s Grover!
The End. Whatever happened to that kid who threatened to beat up all the out town visitors?
“Whatever happened to that kid who threatened to beat up all the out of town visitors?”
He was subsequently exposed as an out of towner and he got beat up.
Grover is boosting.
the mean bean is grasser.

Awesome photos, awesome park. Making me consider moving out west after I am done saving Japan.
for me it is a duty, to annoy the filmer. I like to get in the shot and do the “hi mom” thing as iff I were on “good morning america” how about the filmer blowing the “footy” and “exposure” his buddy naturally got in this skate and annoy post? I’m sick of the need to document everything. live for the moment not the memory
Front side nose fether? Never heard of it. Do you mean lien air?
Make it easy on me:
Big dark striped shirt =
Light striped shirt (first shot) =
White t-shirt =
Dark t-shirt =
I get annoyed enough at the THPS generation calling every frontside air a frontside Indy, what the fuck is a nose fether you ignorant twerp
“what the fuck is a nose fether”
Sounds like a sneeze-inducing maneuver…
carroll and kilwag are trippen is a nose fether…
razorrrr…sharp!!
Seriously, WTF is a nose fether? Just tell me which picture is supposed to be the nose fether. Start with the guy in the read hat as picture number one… then tell me which number is a “nose fether”
Its a front side lien, but im not really grabing the nose.
Light stried shirt is chris grasser he works at plan z across the street.
The dark striped shirt guy is kb.
The white shirt is jed.
The front side air is texas.
T.S.E.S. Get up and skate.
That is a fucking mean frontside air there.
every lien is frontside
is it fether or feather? can they be done backside? or is that something else?
Thanks Dallas.
