Rip City premiere

Milan Spasic created a pool skating documentary called Chlorine in 2003. SnA has posted about his Rip City Project a couple of times. Well, I don’t know what happened to Rick Coyle who started the project but the thing seems to be in the can. The Portland premiere is Tuesday March 24, 2009 at the […]

Nor Cal Ramp Jam

Unless they get rained out again… This Saturday the 28th there will be a ramp Jam at the Norcal Surf Shop (650-738-9283) in Pacifica CA, next to the Linda Mar (Taco Bell) Beach, 1 Block North of the Skatepark on Highway 1 (Cabrillo Hwy) at 5460 Coast Hwy. How’s that for specifics? Live music and […]

Verbal Abuse for your Valentine

The Berkeley, California skatepark will host the rain delayed Day After St Valentines Day Skate Massacre on this Sunday the 22nd of February. That’s a mouthful. Is that vintage hardcore act Verbal Abuse I see on the flyer as well? Yes it is! I’m sure they’ve aged well, like a fine, angry wine. Catch the […]

Ed Benedict is still open…

Yeah, we went to the opening day, but it was at the end of a long day after sessioning in the Aumsville/Salem area. Figured it would be a zoo there, and everyone we talked to said it was. We got there about 5:30pm, and it was still packed full of kids. There were a lot […]

Ed Benedict OPEN Saturday!

Those of you left still holding your breath can take a giant inhale. Sam from SkateOregon just got off the phone with a real life Portland Parks & Recreation representative who confirmed the fences are coming down, and Ed Benedict is officially open tomorrow, Saturday, February 7th. An formal ceremony may or may not come […]

Friday T&A on S&A: Oh Ramona – Pinups and Vert

Check out Thrasher’s Rumble in Ramona recap for a liberal dose of scantily clad gals reliving the golden age of pinups and vert skating. That looks like Mark Scott getting in on the “photography club” action.

Bad news for bad people

It’s an even blacker day for the black-hearted. As a long time fan of the Cramps, I was saddened to learn of his death the other day. I had some photos from a Cramps show that I was going to post, but they were pre-digital camera and I can’t seem to find them in a […]

Hey you kids! Get off my quarterpipe!

I did end up finding an advert for one of those old ice boards in a Skateboarder magazine, but I’ve got a few more vintage skateboards on snow contraptions to scan as well. What about snowboards on skate ramps? This is a flyer for Windells upcoming President’s Day weekend camp session with a snowboard on […]

Night racing, hopefully no Night Ranger

There’s another downhill night race put on by the Zoobomb folks in Portland. More info at PDXdownhill as well. Well, not really guys, you’re slacking. It’s February 15th at 9pm in Portland, rain or shine. One of these days (nights, actually) I’m going to check this out. Not this time, as I’ll be in Florida. […]
