October 9: After being completely rained out on the first day
of our road trip, it was a relief to finally see some sun. We also heard
that this place was supposed to be among the best of the Oregon skate parks.
Boy were we in for a shock! The place was aweful! Besides the fact that it all
sloped gradually downhill, the only real jump was a 1' high tabletop of sorts. There
was coping around most of it, but it stuck like hell and was pretty much inaccessible.
For the most part, the people were jerks as well. Maybe skateboarders would enjoy
this more for carving, but expect to be shoved by some immature 25 year old who
thinks that he's 7 or something (that goes for skateboarders as well). I'd suggest skipping this
one and going straight to Talent and Ashland.
