Checkout this video from Tom Bender featuring a summer’s worth of skating in Portland, Oregon with nary an old man in sight! Go on a PDX bender after the jump. (Sorry, couldn’t resist.)

Awesome skating and spots. Kudos to the guy blasting from the handicap dip over and up to the loading dock. That looked huge.

Edited for clarity:
Someone should tell these guys about the skate parks. ;^)

I agree, it’s good to see some guys that are skating all of the street stuff in Portland. I’m impressed with how good some of these guys are. I remember seeing some of them as little kids when DOS was open.

I was actually thinking the opposite- it nice to see a video out of Portland with little too no skate park footage. A lot of people forget how how good the street skaters are in Portland. You’ll rarely see park footage from Bledsoe, Silas or Matt Beach, which I think is awesome. Don’t get me wrong skate parks are great and a lot of fun, but they look boring as hell in footage (expect for Burnside when Chin, Willis and Brent skate there).
