Arvada, Colorado already in progress
It’s been nine months since I posted the preliminary plans for this regional park in Arvada, Colorado and now we’ve got some snake run construction photos courtesy of Team Pain.
All the skate nieuws that’s fit to print
Donald Duck Club, Dutch edition. It says copyright 2011 but it looks like it was reproduced on a copy machine made in 1984. See the whole thing after the jump, for all our Dutch readers, if there are any besides frequent contributor Matthijs.
SOTW 8-15-11: Casey Morrow
This week’s shot of the week is a Dabe Alan picture of Casey Morrow taken in NW Portland. After a day of pretty successful skating and shooting, we decided to head back to our respective homes. We happened to stop at a light next to a building that was being completely reworked and spotted this ridiculous ramp entrance that had not yet had a railing added. Figuring we only had a few days before the spot was ruined, Casey decided to brave the caution tape and hit the gap. Bigger version over at Flickr, or the regular anemic version over at the fabulously updated Shot of the Week.
Fecta
From Oregon Trifecta to Bifecta, and this year just plain old “Fecta” or Fecta and a half depending on how many peopel show up at Tobin’s house today. Dudes showed up yesterday at Pier Park and got rad, like Sky Siljeg (above) and Kevin Kowalski, but that’s all the photos you’ll get out of me. I missed most of it. Rich was there, you should see his pictures of Ffej from the Dew Tour.
I Left My Heart in San Francisco
Another Mayer Hawthorne video, this one with buttload street skating. Mayer Hawthorne must dig skateboarding.
Annoying Kid of the Month
Grover spotted this kid at the Dew Tour. I had a good AKOTM lined up from MC’s recent trip to Montana, but this one is topical now, so here we are. Last year the Dew Tour produced another excellent AKOTM thanks again to copious amounts of free sugar water, caffeine and Ball Park Franks temporary tattoos. Sadly, looking back I’ve only updated AKOTM once since then. BONUS! Check out the runner up for AKOTM, it’s sour skateboarding businessman of the month.
Thanks PepsiCo.
Got to skate the Dew bowl with a bunch of my friends. It’s pretty amazing for a portable structure. About Pier Park size in the deep. Slightly deeper maybe. That’s Andy Macdonald over the hip as Grover digitally records him.
Tank Traps
This edition of drive by cellphone shots, these aren’t tank traps on the Maginot Line, rather light fixtures and car barriers at a high school in Redmond, Washington.
