Thrasher @ Reedsport

Thrasher at Reedsport

Pablito clued me in to the last issue of Thrasher - Killer shot of Reedsport on the cover and a great article about Oregon skateparks. Gotta find a back-issue! Until then here is a link to the text of the article.

FLORENCE

We pretty much stood around and laughed in wonder at how wild this skatepark is and how any city inspector worth his clipboard could have signed off on such a freaky monstrosity. Greeting visitors to the park is a 10-foot retaining wall with two-foot transition sporting the message, “Fuck Off, Grandma!” spray-painted in large, white letters. Stu carved the hole of death while we stood around bullshitting with the local maniac little kids until dark. Anyone who’s ever been forced to wear full pads on a Masonite streetcourse owes it to themselves to ride this beautiful, diabolical skateboard park.
