  1. Just plain mean.

  2. I’ve skated those a bunch. Back in the Rebel Skates days.

    1. Yeah, classic Portland spot. They tried bolting a two-by-four across the whole width first but kids made quick work of that.

  3. I have a burly cordless Sawzall.

  4. Bet you could get a buck or two recycling those pipes once they’ve been “liberated”

    A 3″ diamter pipe cutter is a nice, cheap, quiet and effective tool for cutting all sorts of metal pipe. Spin that little guy around a dozen times, see if that rail can come off!

  8. In my youth, I spent a thousand hours at this spot…”surfing” it. I have thought of it many times, and wondered what happened to it. Usually well lit, a quick session could happen before a trip to the “urban noise” on Union st. for a show (ask SMAY…he knows). I greatly enjoyed bumming people in too short white shorts with screeching slides and bottom turns (actually- I still enjoy that).That spot needs to be “freed”.

    Cut those pipes down and you’ll have some coping or a nice rail for your home builds.

  10. I wanna see someone hippie jump that

  11. I also have an orange shirt with yellow stripes and a hardhat.

    While Eric has a good idea, that stuff might be too heavy for that

  13. I’m surprised the meth heads haven’t taken the pipes yet.
