This week’s Shot of the Week is from Michael Goetz at The Skateboard Archives. It features Andy Adams, a Toast rider, on the Burnside bridge in Portland Oregon. You’ve heard of Burnside, right?

SOTW 2-11-08: Marc Haziza at the Skatepark of Paris

This Week’s Shot of the Week is Marc Haziza at the newly opened Skatepark of Paris, taken by Frederic Lannois. Check out the full size version. Look at those seams and you’ll see it’s a prefab concrete park. But, hey! Check out that roof! Sure could use one of those around here.
