9:35 Ross Island Sand & Gravel unofficially built a lot of Burnside stake park, because the drivers would come and drop off the left over concreate they had at the end of the days shift for the skaters to use. Ross Island Sand & Gravel also helped to build the Burnside Bridge that the skatepark is under.
Cool Bart shirt! That skate park is cool. Legendary! How could they tear it down? They are making a Bartman figure --a company called Super 7. You should check it out broski. That's a cool mural to honor that skater. That doesn't surprise me with feral cats in that area. My ex girlfriend is a cat lady and lives near that area and has feral cats she feeds around her place. That churro donut looks good. That was a scary "shadow" kreeper on a cruiser eating a donut 😂
THey better not! That place is too legendary. Its a damn national landmark! Theres people from ALL OVER THE WORLD that come to Portland just to bask in the greatness that is Burnside. Yes, when you scrape youre knee theres a 43% chance you will contract hep C. Yes on hot summer days it may smell like bum puke and BO. Yes the locals there arent the nicest to skate with. BUt thats all the charm in the place! SAVE BURNSIDE!
Used to skate there in 1990 before I left for Desert Storm. Back then the interesting thing was that skateboarding was illegal in the 12 sq blocks of downtown on the west side of the river. In 1976 a kid hit an old lady and she broke her hip. So we spent plenty of time running from cops down there so when Burnside was getting put together it was like the great hope for Portland skaters. But what happened was this immediate Locals Only attitude that was mimicking the surf spots in California. Every time you’d go there people would harass you for being from the westside and god forbid you had new wheels, you were a poser. And people would try to run you off. Btw the horse cops had skate keys and they would confiscate one of your wheels if they caught you in the illegal zone, so we always carried spares! When I came back to skate in 92 it was basically a drug den . I went back a few times after that but it’s never been a welcoming place that promoted or painted a good light on the skater community.
I wish the city would put some of that money into fixing some of our Portland streets that are full of potholes. Hopefully Burnside Skate Park stays, it's iconic!!
Remeber like 8 years ago when that "vigalante" was on news for filling potholes and was told to stop because it makes it hard for the city to have to re-fill them, but the city will never fill the potholes
Ya know I don't think the city funds Burnside...they keep talking about getting rid of Madison skate park to.to much noise..crazy..folks need things fun things to do I think..Burnside had a lot of movies filmed there Jackass, Bam Margera came there...geeez
Sad to see all the artwork going away. The new one should be great, though. I wonder how much it cost to put the rocks there. Maybe could’ve done something to help the homeless instead 🧐 Have a nice weekend, my friend 👍😊💕👍
Dude, i wanted tosee Burnside and yours was the latest video. Thanks. So many good years of safety meetings and PBRs. And crazy shit. Holloween parties with star trekky band members. RVs and chainsaws. Shit goes on. The smell of Tzo tea being made. BBQs. The place looks so damn smooth now. . . Knew a New Zealander that moved to portland, OR just to skate Burnside.
Burnside skate Park is very territorial... . Just saying watch your back... ❤☮️👽420 Portland or.Keep the Peace. Keep skating just when the locals r not there. .. Iam hopeing the new park will bring Portland together.💟👍😎

Are you freakin kidding me?! Burnside skate park is legendary! They seriously better not demolish it. I don't care 1 bit if they build something newer or "better" because there's just too much history there !
The guy that owns that skatepark on 20th and Hawthorne he also has a illegal sidewalk curb in front of his house I have fallen on that one and my leg that is messed up it's probably most likely when I've crashed my bike but this person shouldn't put this thing it's actually on city property because the sidewalk is about 2 ft from the property line anyway that's also on Madison that's on Main I shouldn't say the address but he's only four blocks from his house I think you would probably think it was great but I was out walking in my neighborhood and I fall on it I seen the guy he was working in his yard and his wife was there and I talked to them and told them about it he said I'm just working here and she said I don't know anything about it but anyway I no longer live in that neighborhood I used to be on the corner of 17th and salmon so I was only about a block or so from there it was one of those things where you can set up on the corner Edge like you're on a pool right but it was like three corners I thought it would look beautiful it's been there for a long time but I was walking heading to the Burgerville turn the corner there it looks like the sidewalk right but no he put a curb the protrudes now if I say that it doesn't protrude it's on public property because of how the property line goes and he shouldn't probably do that

They are already planning on keeping the skatepark

Still true. Not too.mwny druggies these days unless they are "skaters". Still a real local spot tho

No doubt potholes for days!!
Portland streets suck in general for skating...alot of the roads are rough and bumpy with rocks and stuff😂

Nice vlog my friend. Looks like the guy at the skate store did not care about you talking to him. lol
Yeah he was kinda odd

5:30 Not friendly at all.
Nope
That's the typical Portland interaction. Everyone is boring and pissed off for no reason.

Right, it's always been that way. 6am - 10am session if you're not a local or ride BMX, otherwise good luck.
That was like 20 years ago. Its lame AF down there now.
City had promised several new parks. Twenty total in the city limits. They won’t tear any out. It would add too much to the cost.

Those lines will never be ridden like they used to be. Skaters nowadays are way to soft.
