Ride Free

The Burnside Skatepark in Portland, OR, one of the top Skateparks in the world, has a cool history. It was built clandestinely by the kids to have a place to skate under the Burnside Bridge. They all chipped in creating a park built by the community. Later on the park was sanctioned by the city. The park and some of the skaters you can see here were also featured in the movie 'Paranoid Park' by Gus Van Sant.
