Trifecta overkill day one: Portland's Pier Park

Trifecta overkill day two: Portland’s Pier Park

Yes, some sick skating went down at Portland’s Pier Park that truly left the crowd dumbfounded. Day two of our Oregon Trifecta overkill coverage is up. Check out: 2007 Oregon Trifecta – Portland’s Pier Park.

Trifecta overkill day one: Lincoln City

Well here it is finally, the first of way too many pictures of the Oregon Trifecta. This is Lincoln City coverage. It’s a lot to digest. There are a lot of pictures included that probably shouldn’t have made the cut, but we figure people want to see more and not less. Right? They don’t all […]

Delayed

That’s right, we’re pushing back our coverage a day. The pics are sorted and the coding is done, but I want to try and track down some names and polish it up a little instead of rushing it out. Look for it mid-day on Wednesday. I’ll tell you though, I’m about Trifecta-ed out by now. […]

World's biggest skateboard - BAy College

Bigger-er-est

Bringing you the finest in in-depth skate journalism, do I getting a freaking pretend Pulitzer Prize in skateboarding for this or what? No, that’s not another one of MC’s experiments in photoshop, it’s an actual picture of the new world’s biggest skateboard. No, it’s not official yet, but it’s in the bag. Swank’s board is […]

2007 Albany Oregon Summer contest

I wanted to make sure I got this posted before the mayhem starts this weekend in Oregon. The small home grown scene is equally if not more important as all the high profile events in skateboarding. It’s the small companies, crews and towns that you’ve never heard of that are (-ugh-) keeping it real. In […]

Battle Ground grand opening:
The Red Badge of Courage

I didn’t get a ton of great shots, but I think I did get heat exhaustion. Anyone who braved the crowds and heat last Saturday for Battle Ground’s grand opening definitely deserves the Red Badge of Courage. That place was packed solid, but you could still get your runs in the bowl while everyone else […]

Vancouver WA skatepark rumor now slightly more credible than Bigfoot!

Check out construction pics from the Vancouver Washington skatepark. I was origianlly just going to link to Dan Hughes‘ shots but then I figured it was worth the trek since I only live 12 miles from the spot. This park has been in the works so long without progress, it was starting to seem like […]

Battle for Battle Ground

Thor was good enough to brave the wrath of John Dalton to give us a photo essay progress report on Battle Ground Washington’s skate park. Looks like it’s getting close. This looks like it will be a great park for riders of different disciplines to mix. Street brethren, bowl bros, we can all get along. […]

Perfect Day

And it was. Celebrating a Matt’s birthday out in the St Johns neighborhood of Portland with food, beer (with permit!) and friends. Indian summer was in full effect and people are still amazed by the park. Matt Moffet got his brand new skateboard stolen but another kid (supposedly) coughed it up later in the day. […]
