Another installment from my trip to Portland. 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. It's a pretty good film, you should check it out.You can find more pictures and video of some amazing skateboarding in my gallery.
