Oregon Thrasher Article
Mark from Airspeed Skateparks showed me this article on the Thrasher site today. The video is pretty sweet. 100% Oregon concrete, including some good shots in Toledo and some crazy dude dropping in from the TOP of the big wall in Burnside.

That was sick. Could Burnside be the gnarliest park in the world?

Does the locals throwing dead rats at you during your run count for gnarly?

I’m pretty sure that counts - specially since you ran over it and finished your run. ahaha

Nice picture of the Stormtrooper! I remember when that was up there.
Talk about gnarly@!?#$ I got invited to a backyard ramp after sundown at Newberg that other day. Tarps and lights. Something like 20 feet wide, 25 feet long with three different extensions, including an over-vert with pool copping. I didn’t take many runs, but I did go right after the pool grind. I got up on it, but couldn’t keep the board under me. But I’ll be back there! It is just a few blocks away from Newberg.
