Banks

Plans are underway to rebuild the embankment at the MLK center in Newport.  This is one of the few areas in the city that skateboarding is allowed, but there are no permanent, skatable obstacles there.  The deteriorating banks will be removed and replaced with fresh concrete this spring.  This video of the Adidas team in Copenhagen shows a spot that is providing some inspiration for the project.
 

Oakley Surf Shop Challenge


The second stop on SURFER Magazine’s 2011 Oakley Surf Shop Challenge (OSSC) will take place on April 11 or 12 at Casino Pier in Seaside Height, NJ. Shops from Maine to New Jersey have been invited to participate.

SURFER Magazine’s OSSC event series teams shop employees with shop pros for a chance at $10,000 and the title of the best surf shop in the U.S. This year will see 280 surfers from 70 shops around the country compete at seven regional stops before culminating at the Huntington Beach pier in September for the National Championship.

Good luck to the surf team today!

Dillon.

Can anyone from the area put out a better part this year? I don't think so.
