Skate Utah – Rose Park

Skate Utah has a pretty cool video shot at Rose Park. We’ve all seen the camera mounted under the skateboard shot before, usually in commercials, but this time it’s an extended shot complete with heel flip – I think, I get confused scrubbing the footage back and forth. The whole thing was done without expensive […]

Reeses Puffs Commercial

Spohn Ranch built a miniramp for a Reeses Puffs commercial shot in a backyard of Pasadena, CA home that I have yet to see on air. Keep your eyes glued to Nickelodeon.

Skateboarding in Iraq. Operation Dust Pipe

Skate Iraq: Operation Dust Pipe

Saturday Skateboards passed on these photos to us. There are two guys in the army in Iraq who managed to convince the Commander and First Seargant of Camp Victory to allow them to build what look like a pretty decent miniramp. It’s a lot better than what the other guys are skating in Iraq. Alex […]

Well, they teach both at school now.

Since there’s no date on this guerilla art installation by Madrid artist SpY, we can’t say whether his ramp reinterpretation in his Urban Furniture collection was something he conceived before or after he saw Conahan’s very similar vision. Still, the soccer field painted on a miniramp is pretty clever. I just saw a graphic on […]

Zoning ordinances

So the joke goes, (my joke, by the way) that zoning ordinances and building codes in Portland require that any mini ramp built on private property must have at least one extension that goes to within one foot of the ceiling, an over-vert section, or a three foot or smaller transition. Apparently those rules apply […]

Ed Benedict is still open…

Yeah, we went to the opening day, but it was at the end of a long day after sessioning in the Aumsville/Salem area. Figured it would be a zoo there, and everyone we talked to said it was. We got there about 5:30pm, and it was still packed full of kids. There were a lot […]

Lite Bright, making things with light

Reader Kvon made some long exposure light drawing shots on his miniramp with the help of LED technology. Check them out on his nothing is…blog. He calls them a failure, but I think they turned out pretty good. Lite Bright, making things with light… You know, like the old toy? No? Then look it up, […]

Extreme Garage Ramp Makeover

I found this on Dan Hughes’ Northwest Skater site. There’s a guy who had what looked to be a really nice miniramp in his garage. Not one to remain satisfied, he decided to tear it out and build some roundwall instead. I don’t know the owner, or where he lives, so don’t ask. Instead, just […]

SOTW 12-15-08: 13th Street, Missouri

This week’s Shot of the Week is Austin Korte taken at the Springfield SkatePark in Springfield, MO on November 8th. What is it? Frontside ollie to disaster out of the miniramp into the adjacent tranny. The photographer is Brian Infante, who runs 13th Street Skateboarding, a site devoted primarily to skateboarding in Missouri. I’m in […]
