Portland Oregon Skate parks

Newberg Skatepark ( 1201 S. Blaine Street Newberg, OR. 97132 ) is about an hour SW of Portland. Built in 2000 by Dreamland Skateparks this 29,000 sq. ft. park is a pretty cool spot with a variety of stuff to hit throughout this sprawling park. Going from the left to right when entering you first encounter a round transition that comes to a flattened round point that at one point spun, continuing left you encounter a long 4/5ft offset 2 kidney shaped bowl that is super fun with great lines. At the far end of this bowl is a role in from a higher 5ft kidney shaped half bowl that ls pretty challenging from a goofy rider’s perspective but is really fun. To the left of the first bowl is a doubled hump with a 4ft handrail that spans the humps that leads up to the higher 5ft kidney shaped half bowl. This section is personally my favorite as I was able to create some really fun lines incorporating all aspects of that section of the park. At the back of the park, next to the 5ft kidney bowl is ...

Yep, we built a half pipe, we are calling it the  Kenton Circus ( secret location ) Its 4ft high, 10ft wide, with a 10ft flat bottom and the transition has a 7.5ft radius for a nice mellow transition but tall enough to make it interesting. As we live in Portland, we also had to devise a cover so we can skate in the rain, so made a pop-up tent that actually works really good out of PVC, the existing decks of the ramp and big ass tarps until we can build a permanent structure. I was gona do a time laps video of us building it but I forget so you will have to do with the images to give you an idea of how we built it.
