GVK #51: 2009 Fall Road Trip

Nothing epic here just some average skating. It is the 3rd annual Fall Road Trip this year we went to the desert. Stage #1 Irrigon Pendelton Milton-Freewater. These parks were fun and wide open as you can see from the footage they were Ghost parks. Stage #2 Bend Madras And Redmond with the Sharps and […]

Eugene, Oregon skatepark designs

Three Dreamland design concepts have been unveiled for the newest Eugene, Oregon skatepark. One looks pretty straightforward, while the other two have unusual elements either in the park design or some strange sculptural elements. I’m not sure what’s going on there with the giant duck and the prehistoric swimming dinosaur. A dino-duck? College mascot homage? […]

SOTW 10-5-09: Jake Selover

This week’s Shot of the Week is Jake Selover putting the “tuck knee” in, uh, the tuck knee air out at his friend Dru’s vert ramp near Bend, Oregon. Yes, there is a vert scene in Bend, Oregon. The sign says “Next vert ramp 819 miles.” Check out the Shot of the Week.

Two new indoor spots in Portland

Up top is the Epic Snowboards shop at NW 23rd and Vaughn in PDX. It’s actually sharing a space with a scooter shop – Vespa Portland. This ramp used to be in the Grenade facility, which I believe was somehow associated with the now defunct Office. Regardless, I think this Saturday the doors are open […]

Albany, Oregon contest coverage

Notice I posted this before I got around to the Pier Park stop of the Trifecta? Albany locals have pride. Red Cement threw a contest back at the end of August, and I’ve got photos from Danimal, Kevin Porterfield and Mychal Brown after the jump.
