Gravitational Enigma

Monday Cover 30 - Alex Dinwiddie

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!

Cones-n-Concrete

Park Slalom Banner

On June 1st, a park slalom event was held at the Aumsville skatepark as part of the Oregon State Games. The turn out was good and folks seemed to be enjoying themselves. Who would have thought a few plastic cones duct taped to the walls of a skatepark could be so much fun. Thanks to Pat and the other volunteers for putting on a great event.

For more pictures, links and race results, click on through to the other side…. Next stop on the park slalom tour is West Linn on June 23rd. Get all the details from our pals over at Skate and Annoy.

The New Brood

Adam Kays @ Aumsville

If this were Del Mar and the year was 1979, you might think this is Chris Strople mid-layback air a la striped socks. Well, it’s Aumsville skatepark, the year is 2007 and the skater is Adam Kays, this week’s Monday Cover featured skater. We caught Adam in this stylin’ layback air between runs at the recent Oregon State Games Park Slalom event. Adam took silver in his division and had the third fastest time overall.

Congratulations Adam and we dig the socks!
