Ken Fillion - Pier Park - Oregon Trifecta.

Oregon Trifecta – Pier Park coverage

Someone complained that I was completely slacking on the Pier Park stop of the 2009 Oregon Trifecta. So here it is, coming down to the wire for 2009. Ken Fillion on the invert here. Hooray! So obviously, I let some four months go by before I got around to this, so everything is less than […]

Milking it, Trifecta style

In case you missed it, it’s Skreech at the Trifecta, skating a deck with the nose broken off. I’m not sure how you do that. In any case, don’t feel bad for him, he’s got his own model out on Addikt now. Enlarge-o-rama.

Late snap of the week

Jessica Starkweather at the Oregon-you-know-what, you know-know-where edition. I take this shot of her every time I see her at Pier Park, though usually the timing is better, as it’s actually a double truck frontside carve grind. Enlarge-o-rama.

Mumble, mumble.

Here’s a shot of Mark Partain that I took at some event that I was at. Can’t seem to remember what it was called, or when it was. All I can remember is someone saying the crowd smells like beer. Enlarge-o-rama.

Well, you know.

This is some guy from Texas. I was watching him further down in the pipe and it looked like he had the height a few times, but he wasn’t going anywhere near the door. Then all of the sudden he went for it and surprised the hell out everyone. That’s clearance, Clarence!

Trifecta stalling continued

Yeah, I’m pretty busy, so here’s a shot of Chris Russell nose grinding through the corner at Pier Park. I think Chris is two years old, give or take 10-12 years. Enlarge-o-rama. I think I’m so behind that this may retroactively become a Shot of the Week.

Gumpfecta 2009

Trifecta is a horse race betting scheme where you try to choose the winners in three races. The equivalent expression for two races is exacta which sounds much better than the bastardized Bifecta which I freely admit is how I first described it. Speaking of Oregon Exacta photos, Steve Gump has a couple of galleries […]
