Pendleton Roundwall
P-town Throwdown this Saturday at Pendleton Skatepark Appearances by Bacon dudes. Benji, Johnny, Oudalay, and Jeff Ferris who will be traveling here in a time machine from the eighties to emcee. I swear, the kid could be an illegitimate son of Steve Schneer. Flyer after the turn.
Manam Saturday
Sorry for the last minute nature of the post. Today is the first annual Man Am Shred Fest at 6 Twenty One Skateshop in Livermore, Ca. This one should be interesting to say the very least, I think it’s gonna be like Comedy Central’s “Man Show” only with a Skateboard Contest in the middle of […]
Maloof Money Cup Day One
Today is day one for the Maloof Money Cup in New York City. Last night was nuts, see yesterday’s post for details. I picked up an Eye-Fi card, which is a Wi-Fi enabled memory card for the camera, so hopefully I will be able to post pictures much closer to real time. Just a reminder […]
Maloof Money Cup Day Zero
Today is day zero for the Maloof Money Cup in New York City. The contest doesn’t start till tomorrow, but today there is a ribbon cutting ceremony, jam session, and two skateboard related art show openings in the city. Believe it or not, SnA was considered a legit blog by the media credentials people so […]
Who is that braced man?
FInd out after the jump. – Thanks to Kim Elliott for the pic.
Park Slalom in West Linn on Saturday
Park slalom is back in West Linn. Skate Legion has the low down, but it’s pretty much the same info you see in the flyer above. Man, I haven’t been to West linn in… I’m gong to say two, possibly three years. I wonder if the neighbors have relaxed now that there are so many […]
Maloof strikes back
Maloof just unveiled the plans for the street course at the NYC leg of the Maloof Money Cup on June 5-6, 2010. The big news? The REALLY big news? The “course” is a permanent facility that will be donated to the city Instead of building a temporary course and dismantling it like they did last […]
Oregon Trifecta – Pier Park coverage
Someone complained that I was completely slacking on the Pier Park stop of the 2009 Oregon Trifecta. So here it is, coming down to the wire for 2009. Ken Fillion on the invert here. Hooray! So obviously, I let some four months go by before I got around to this, so everything is less than […]
Vintage Gonz with a 12 foot ollie
This is contest video from one of the the last hurrahs of the N.S.A., the organization that would eventually end up as World Cup Skateboarding, believe it or not. Mark made this ollie gap twice, once in practice and once in the contest. It’s the branch of the y-shaped miniramp that Team Pain built for […]
