What? You didn’t know that Battle Ground, Washington is located in Oregon? Well don’t tell anyone. Yes, the pro event got rained out and moved to Tobin’s bowl, but no, it’s not covered in this feature. It’s coming Monday. Until then you can check out the Women’s and Master’s event coverage with a little bit […]
Yes, some sick skating went down at Portland’s Pier Park that truly left the crowd dumbfounded. Day two of our Oregon Trifecta overkill coverage is up. Check out: 2007 Oregon Trifecta – Portland’s Pier Park.
Well here it is finally, the first of way too many pictures of the Oregon Trifecta. This is Lincoln City coverage. It’s a lot to digest. There are a lot of pictures included that probably shouldn’t have made the cut, but we figure people want to see more and not less. Right? They don’t all […]
Aw hell. After the Battle Ground pro event got rained out I went home, hung out with my wife, went to our block party (that I had a hall pass out of until the Battle Ground rain), gave my two year old a bath and then sat down and had a leisurely dinner with my […]

We’re looking forward to this year’s Oregon Trifecta, even if it isn’t all in Oregon this year. In fact, I’m getting ready to head out to Lincoln City within the hour. I’m excited now, but I’m sure I’ll be sick of it by Sunday. One thing that is going to make this year’s event even […]
People started showing up for the Oregon Trifecta at the beginning of the week. I ran into Salba (figuratively this time) and Glen Charnoski at Pier Park this afternoon. Damn.
If you want to avoid the crowds at the Trifecta this year, but still want a little bit of commotion during your NW Oregon skatepark experience this weekend, consider heading over to Seaside this Saturday for the 3rd annual Skate ‘n Ride Summer JAM. It’s for a good cause.
I wanted to make sure I got this posted before the mayhem starts this weekend in Oregon. The small home grown scene is equally if not more important as all the high profile events in skateboarding. It’s the small companies, crews and towns that you’ve never heard of that are (-ugh-) keeping it real. In […]
