Skateboarding and more ….
What’s up with doubles? It seems MC and Grover are looking for gum sponsors with their synchronized inverts. MC is stretching out an Andrecht while Grover goes for the classic variety. Now if only they were blowing bubbles. Click on pic for a larger view.
Check it out. Josh, a.k.a Skreech, pulls a backside body-jar over Benji’s frontside grind in the shallow at Glenhaven. This is a total make believe it or not. A few more pics of Josh and Benji after the turn. Mmmm, Bacon Scum is good. Click on pics for a larger view.
Skate softly and ride a big stick like this week’s Monday Cover featured skater Steev Howell. Here Steev does his sponsor, Sector Nine, proud while lofting a big frontside air between runs at the West Linn Park Slalom – note the cones in the bowl.
Congratulations Steev and keep killin’ it!
It’s a wrap. The second annual West Linn Park Slalom is in the books and we have a few pictures from a great day of fun. Hats off to Tom Inouye and Mike Estes for once again hosting the event. See more pics and some prose after the turn ….

Gravity, what’s that? It seems some folks are noticeably less affected by gravity than others. Case in point, Alex Dinwiddie, this week’s featured skater on Monday Covers. We met Alex on a recent trip to Aumsville and managed to snap a few pics of his gravity defying moves. Checkout this tweaked-out frontside tuck-knee air. See a few more pics of Alex’s antics in last week’s installment of Foto-Friday.
Congratulations Alex!
The Capsule of Despair is no place to trap someone indefinitely. The time has come for Super Grover to find a way out of his predicament. What justice awaits the evil Dr. K.? Click on the comic for a larger view.

Imagine you live in a world where the preferred venue for seeing music is in an arena. Now imagine the popular bands consist of the ones listed below. Bummer huh? It really happened and some people have the black concert t-shirts to prove it. It took a bunch of punks from the U.K. along with their U.S. counterparts to snap us back to our senses. Of course, this is just our opinion. Now go get some perspective with this week’s YouTube Tuesday selections and don’t forget to wave a lighter while swaying to the jams.
