Reedsport Contest and Super Loop Challenge 7/17/04.

The year was 2004. The month was July. The event was Reedsport’s first major contest. Complete with $1000 purse for the first guy to complete the loop. Actually, it was $1030 if you include the money that Steve Grover collected from the cheapskates in the audience. The contest was long but fun. They even took a break for the town parade which must not have been very important because they didn’t even block the whole road for the parade, just one of the lanes. After the contest wast over (Wait, who won?) a bunch of rippers showed up that would logically have done very well had they the desire to compete in organized sports. Team Airspeed Skateparks took home a well deserved shop trophy. Nobody made the loop but Joseph Heffner came amazingly close twice.

Eugene Lardizabal is friend of the site, and a friend of Portland area vert skaters. Oh yeah, he’s a Vancouver BC skate tour guide and Cold War test pilot as well. We had a going away session on the vert ramp in Beaverton on his last day before leaving Oregon for Kansas. Good by Eugene!
