Windells <3 concrete, No questions!!! The builders have been taking increadable care in building amazing concrete structures all over camp, ready for skateboards and bikes all summer long. There are a few top secret things being built right now that have not gotten clearence for the website, but lets just say it’s been a long time since there has not been a concrete truck pulling into campus. If I can sneak some shots behind “the mans” back i’ll surly post them up here.
With dirt jumps being built on what feels like a 24 hour straight time frame, Windells campus is shaping up increadable amounts and will be your stomping grounds to summer fun. Sit tight on that Bob update, we are getting film and pictures ready so it’s special. I may post a few pics of it here and there, but the full post will be memorable
It has been raining here for about two days straight and it has forced the building of trails to start at the top of the hill instead of the bottom. No fears, Windells builders are top notch and slowly turning into ditch diggers instead of trail builders. We have 1 line up and running, with 3 just needing a good packing and 1 more getting started today. There will be a plethora of lines by the time camp starts.
This picture is being posted to remind everyone how awesome blue skies and Mt. Hood are the perfect setting for your summer. Notice the Chemtrails in the background? creepy
I guess I’m really hung up on these nice weather pictures. This is at our new concrete mini/bowl combo. It’s increadably fun and getting sessioned regularly between rain showers. Bob update in the works, wait until you see this place!!!!
It has been a very eventful few weeks here at the Windells campus. First off, about every facility on campus has received a face lift. Be it new ceilings or tearing up old carpeting, the cabins and meeting places are plush. And speaking of face lifts, our private indoor skatepark “Bob” has been re-designed and the shred level has increased roughly 15 horsepower. We will have a Bob update including pictures in the next day or so.
Our BMX trails have been getting some serious hours dug into them. If your new to the BMX scene or think you might like to try it out, Windells is the place for you. We have lines ranging from beginner to expert and the goal is to have serious “white knuckle” sets by mid summer. Shout out to Lil Jon
These are our new rails KAB built specifically for our terrain park. They showed up yesterday and already have people talking. Word on the street is the metal used is a special blend that will keep the rails fast all season long. Can’t wait to see what our park crew has in store for these monstrosities. New Rails + Private tow rope = Endless opportunities
Jamie and company have been work really hard on concrete obstacles all over the Windells campus. They are building about one section a week and at this rate we will not have to cut grass any more. Rumors have it that a new box jump and hubba ledges are in the designing stages. Can’t wait for this summer to start…
Here at Windells we’re always looking to push the limits into new realms. BMX and Freeride are starting to get big now, but we didn’t wait for the fad. We’ve been pedaling since way before it was cool.
We recently made history by signing the Diamond Back BMX Pro Team; welcoming Nate Berkeimer, Nicholi Rogatkin, Darin Read, Robbie Wright and Diogo Cannina to the Windells Family.
In the last year we’ve partnered with the Northwest School of Freeride to provide the world’s premier BMX and Freeride experience. Check it out at http://NWSOF.com
