SE Portland has a new spot in the works called Commonwealth Skateboarding. Yes, it’s going to be pay-to-play, but it’s also indoors and concrete. I haven’t seen it in person but I hear it’s comparable in size to BSSS. Who is behind it? Check out Sherkowski Daily for the scoop or visit the Facebook page. Meanwhile, Grover gained entrance and shot some work in progress.

What’s with the pay-to-play comment? I’m sure there is a nicer way to put it then that. I think those guys are only going to charge around 5 dollars or so for a session, I can’t imagine anyone having a problem with that?

Rad to have somewhere else to skate in the rain, ceilings look pretty hi why is it all 5ft hi, breeds emosexuals and deprives the youth of the unalianable right to get RAD!!

Similar in size to Brooklyn? Maybe in height. The footprint is much larger.

Relax, it’s just a post in a comment thread for Pete’s sake.

It has. And speaking of way off topic, I guess it’s time to make a form for submitting tips.

I can’t believe people rush in and keep posting topics through the comment section when they can just email you through ‘contact’ on this site.Jeez.

@ masterochicken – what is your monitor resolution?
masterochicken
Well I know on my computer, anything below the “Annoy” on the left side of the screen is cut off. So maybe that happens to more people than just me. Luckily I have the email adress saved.
Ringo
Excellent idea.

That is going to be a blast. Look at the finish on the concrete, nice.

ummm, I swear it looks like they have wooden stakes set into the concrete floor to hold the footing boards, is that really what i’m seeing?
