Pointless Pics – Page 2 – Skate and Annoy

Meanwhile, back at Donald

BJ Morrill sent in this photo by Matt “Cookie” Jenkins. What is this , a Lowcard advert? What’s his deal? We were out in Oregon a couple months ago and here is a random pic from the Donald park. It was really hot out that day and we consumed lots of beer. Fair enough. Click […]

More pools

Wouldn’t is suck to be the one family in this neighborhood who didn’t have their own backyard pool? I mean, you’d still have a very nice roof over your head, but still… This is a detail from a Vincent Laforet photo. It’s number 20 at his page on the Young Gallery.

2 fer 1 special on cock blocks

These are from the Oregon Trifecta’s Battleground stop last year. Sometimes it’s a dog-eat-dog world out there in the ranks of the Portland non-professional skateboard media. Looks like that might be Rich from EPM, or possibly Mike from The Skateboard Archives, or even Dan from Northwest Skater. Don’t feel sorry for me, cause I’ve poached […]

I have something in common with rollerbladers.

I saw examples of this technique and was thinking about trying it on a skatepark shot. It’s a polar coordinates distortion filter manipulation of a 360° panorama. Photo by Michael Martin Oops, looking at his photoset, I’m guessing this kid is into the rollerblades in addition to photo manipulation tricks. Another guy has posted some […]

Snow Pool, Bozeman Rules

The deep end of this pool wasn’t all that skate-able, but the shallow end woulda been a lot of fun. I thought the snow was ironic none-the-less. Straight from Bozeman Montana I bring you some really shitty drunken point-and-shoot pictures. Rumor has it that there is an abandoned half-built hotel there with a sheet metal, […]

UFOs on Rainbows

What the heck is going on here? Mike from Old Man Army sent in a couple pics thoughtfully (and sensitively) titled Rainbows in the desert. It makes a lot more sense when you see them full frame.

Arrive at the airport early

I’m gradually amping up for an upcoming trip to Florida. You might say over-amping, considering the Florida links around here in the past few days. Or maybe just working on cultivating our niche-niche markets. Here’s a Morris Eaddy shot of Todd Morrow taken at the Dunedin Skatepark, Florida, back in October of ’07. Click to […]

Is the rainy season over?

Is the rainy season over here in the Northwest? I feel sorry for you guys in the Midwest, aren’t you in four feet of snow right now? We’re in the middle of a really nice stretch of weather out here, making these indoor spots less of a draw these days. Dave Viera sent in a […]

Another beautiful day

There’s no better way to combat a buzzkill than enjoying a session in some unseasonably dry and warm weather. if you can’t actually go out and skate today, you can still enjoy some photos from a session at Pier Park last Saturday.
