Sleestock 2007

I went to Sleestock 07 and all I took was 4 crummy pictures

I went to Sleestock 2007 and I only took four pictures. Two of them are butt shots, and one is of a local that who was definitely not into having his park invaded by the likes of the Stak, or probably anyone else for that matter. I took five pictures actually, but one was a […]

Port Orford

Port Orford 4th of July Session

Matt Kline told us about the 4th of July party session at the Port Orford, Oregon skatepark. We couldn’t make it, but Mrs Shoey (Lori) sent us these pictures taken by Kevin Sorres and Josh T. Then I promptly slapped overbearing watermarks all over them. Now that I’m uploading them I’m thinking it’s a bit […]

Flora Skatepark

Cone Chasers- The West Linn Wrap-up Post

When your alarm goes off at 7am, and your waking up to go skateboarding, you sit there for a few seconds- thats when the voice chimes in “ARE YOU CRAZY?” Well, that is the voice I heard when I woke up. Coffee becomes the savior, and so does a peak outside to see bluebird skys. […]

Seaside Oregon Grand Opening

Seaside grand opening not rained out after all.

The Skateboard Archives has coverage of the Seaside Oregon skatepark grand opening that many thought was rained out. Apparently, nobody told Benji Galloway that the park was wet. I don’t know how those guys ride wet cement without cracking their skulls. What’s the scoop with the strange miniature brass sculpture sitting in the rain on […]
