Late Thursday afternoon, Tigard officially dedicated the recently built Jim Griffith Memorial Skatepark. (Click on the pic above) The first thing we noticed as we entered the park was the absence of rule #3 from the park rules sign. Kudos to the City of Tigard for responding to public concern. A big shout out to our Constitution and our Democratic process. Now let’s get down to skating and celebrating those freedoms. Check out Rocco, Clay, Pat, Jack, Mark, Tevita, Shawn, Chad, MC and more after the turn….

What’s the scoop on that ghostly apparition pic of Mark? Is that from the set of Touched by an Angel?
And good coverage BTW.
That ghostly pic of Mark is an attempt to salvage a rad but out-of-focus shot.
clay is the oldest 15 year old I’ve ever seen
Push it!……….
I don’t really know were to start…………………
Standing there with a piece of nature………….
Thinking…………..
Try something new or try what you know………..
One side grip and the other not…….
A breath of air pushed out my lungs……..
Moving forward now……….
Running…….
I let go…………….
Jump on………..
Both feet are placed……..
My mind draws a blank just for a second………..
……
Looking down to make sure I’m ready……..
The wind picks up……….
I squint my eyes a little……..
Cracks banging through my body………
Now wishing that the surface was smoother……..
Bending my knees……..
My ankles feel the stretch………..
I’m going to stick it………
Fingers clinching……..
Eyes wide open now……….
Approaching………….
The rest is up to you……………………….
