MC led a mission to ride 16 skateparks in a single day last weekend. It was grueling and we spent more time driving than skateboarding but it was a fun day out. Check out the complete writeup at Skate and Annoy.

Congratulations Rebel Team rider Cason Kirk for qualifying for the King of the Groms contest finals in all three events: mini-ramp, street and bowl. Cason will be going to the finals next month. Good luck dude! Photo from Third Lair. Way to represent!

Came across this rad shot of Lance at Glenhaven last July over at Earth Patrol Media.

Michael O’Friel won a contest at SkateBarn in Renton, Washington last week. He also won the highest air. Not hard to imaging after seeing this photo by Dan Hughes at Northwest Skater.

Shawn Reinert put on an air show including this dinosaur killer at the Grand Opening of the Tigard Skatepark.

Cason Kirk is recovering from an injury and hopes to be out of his cast in time to get ready for upcoming contests: Skatepark of Tampa, Kona Street and Vert contests, King of the Groms qualifier at Skatelab and then King of the Groms in Minnesota. Heal up Cason!

The Pacific Northwest was well represented at the Etnies Goofy vs. Regular Pro Bowl Jam over the weekend. Benji Galloway took first. Donovan Rice (6th), Rion Linderman (7th), Kevin Kowalski (8th) and Josh Sandoval (13th).

Congratulations to Mikey O’Friel (10th) Will Powers (11th) and Sky Siljeg Bothell (17th).

Mikee O’Friel won his Sponsored division at the Grind for Life bowl contest at Kona in Jacksonville Florida.
