Skateboarding and more ….
Floating a big frontside ollie during last year’s Portland Dew Tour stop is this week’s Monday Cover skater, Tony Magnusson. Not only is Tony still boosting the big air, he’s back on his revived skate brand H-Street. Check out some more pics of T-Mag after the turn.
Congratulations Tony!
One of the highlights of the Portland Dew Tour, in addition to a sweet concrete bowl, was the opportunity to see legends shredding the bowl.

This week’s Yuri’s 80’s Re-Vert Fantasy Skate stop takes us to Seattle, Washington and the NSI Gotcha Grind circa 1989.
