Trifecta!!!

It’s that time of the year again, time for the Golden Otter, some Crown Royal, and a Corn Cup…  Trifecta!  This marks the 10th anniversary of the event which is a good excuse to ramp up an always awesome party.  Lincoln City is hosting the Golden Otter at Kirtsis Park on Friday August 10th.  West Linn has the Crown Royal on Saturday the 11th at Tanner Creek Park.  The Corn Cup will cap the competition off at Pier Park.    Here’s looking forward to good times, good friends, and good skateboarding.

this should explain things nicely


2012 Red Bull Rivals: Portland VS Seattle

Yesterday, July 28th, Benji represented Oregon in the Red Bull Rivals.  Burnside and Marginal Way sent their top 20 skaters to Battleground to compete for a truckload of cement for their respective parks.  Amazing action and loads of good times were had by all.  Of course, Yobeat has a great article and pictures, read it.

Florida Bowlriders Cup starts today!

Benji just jumped on a plane to Jacksonville, Florida on Wednesday to hit up the Florida Bowlriders Cup followed by the Limpnickie Lot at Bike Week in Daytona where he will be representing Bacon and Nash Motorcycles respectively.  He seemed pretty excited to head south, see a bunch of friends and get his skate on (not to mention sunshine and seared tuna).  If you are near New Smyrna Beach Skatepark today or the Kona Skatepark tomorrow or Sunday, stop by and say hi.
