Skateboarding and more ….
This week’s Monday Cover skater, Taylor Johnson, gets a bit blunt with MC’s bowl, blunt-to-fakie to be exact. Springy legs are a must for the tight tranny on that face wall. Check out a few more pics of Taylor finding his way about the bowl after the turn.
Congratulations Taylor!
This week’s Monday Cover skater, Rocco Caravelli, arcs a frontside invert in the tightness that is MC’s bowl. When Rocco’s not shredding up his local environs, you can find him working behind the counter at Shrunken Head or scanning google maps for that elusive backyarder. Check out more pics of Rocco about MC’s bowl after the turn.
Congratulations Rocco!
It’s compact, wearable and in high-definition, no less. What is it? It’s the GoPro HD Helmet HERO video camera and both, BK and KC are giving it a thumbs up. Check out BK’s afternoon at MC’s along with KC’s Pier Park adventure after the turn. EPM “rainy day diversions” Out!
The groundhog has prognosticated six more weeks of winter but baby, baby, baby, it’s not bringing us down. Like a bunch of London girls, skaters here know how to squeeze out a session during breaks in the weather. Check out Jessie, Jack, Gordon, Grover and MC along with their petrol-phobic skates tearing up Newberg and MC’s bowl after the turn. EPM “into the future” Out!

February has arrived and kicking-off this month’s series of Monday Covers is skater-on-the-mend, Benji Galloway. Benji managed to seriously fracture his left arm days after his win at the Pier Park stop of the 2009 Oregon Bifecta. It seems he is feeling a bit better these days as witnessed with this backside ollie over the hip at MC’s bowl. Check out a few more pics of Benji shredding it up after the turn.
Congratulations Benji!
Patience and persistence are paying off. This week’s Monday Cover, Steve Grover of GVK fame, is starting to find his bowl legs, so to speak. Instead of the usually hemming and hawing about not wanting to skate MC’s bowl in favor of more swing-set like terrain, Grover is carving out some new attitudes. Check out a few more pics of the new and improved Grover after the turn.
Congratulations Steve!
This week’s Monday Cover skater, Oudalay Philavanh, grins his way through a super stylish frontside feeble at MC’s bowl. Cheshire Cat comes to mind when watching Oudalay effortlessly skate about the bowl with his trademark perma-grin. Check out some more pics of Ouds along with a sick roll-in sequence after the turn.
Congratulations Oudalay!
So how does Santa prep for his around-the-world-in-a-night mission? Well, it seems ol’ St. Nick likes to shred it up to get the juices flowing. Who knew? This year he stopped by MC’s bowl for a few licks at the coping before heading on his way. Check out Santa killing it with a few of his helpers after the turn. Ho, ho, ho, ho.
Once again, the rains are upon us and dry days are a luxury. So when the weather breaks, you can bet folks are out in force getting a skate fix. Last Saturday was one of those days and true to form, the skating was feverish. Check out some pics from Pier Park and MC’s bowl in the gallery. EPM “Gimme gimme this, gimmie gimme that…” Out!

You grow up and you calm down. Nope, don’t think so. Defying the damp and dark nights, we explore MC’s backyard skate beacon on this week’s edition of Foto-Friday. Check out the gallery below and a few bonus 3D shots after the turn. EPM “Ha, Gittalong, Gittalong” Out!
