Donovan Rice in the B.O.B

vimeo Direct Link

1031 Skateboards‘ team rider and Portland local Donovan Rice with a few friends came up and skated the indoor facility here at Windells. Around campus we call it BOB, but it could also be called the Building Out Back. Keep your eyes peeled for a new edit from Skate Windells first thing tomorrow morning. Session 4. Best Bro Cam Edit yet. If you went to the Windells Academy, you would be able to skate this mini-ramp every single day. Windells’ campus is only 40 minutes from downtown Portland, think of how many pros would come through on a rainy Portland day to come skate the campus…

The West Coast Session returns to Mt. Hood on May 5-8, 2010 for a 4th year of friends, fun & skiing, Hood style.

What does this mean? For many of you it means enjoying comprehensive coverage of the Pacific Northwest’s most distinctive park event for free online at Newschoolers.com. For local skiers and die-hard road-trippers, it means getting yourself to Timberline on May 8 to ride the PNW’s best spring park with the Amplid team and friends.

The West Coast Session is made possible by Amplid, Timberline, Windells and Newschoolers.  The rumor is that this year Timberline is pushing the big jump up in Windells Private Lane for the guys/gals!  Stay tuned for Pictures and Edits from the talented Camera People.  Either way, get yourself up to Timberline on the 8th!

Campus BagJump

Thursday, April 29th, 2010

New for 2010 – a DrySlope Leading into jumps, launching campers into Windells BagJump.  This is being built as we speak on Windells 53 acre Private Campus.  It is nice having our own spot, it enables us to continue to grow the camp with the industry, this is something most other camps do not have the advantage to do.

It is hard to tell what is going on from this picture – but there he is, smoothing out the dirt.  You can see the flat area where the BAG will live, and then the DROP IN area is the zone up from there, that is partially cleared out!

Here is a picture of the DrySlope Frame.  100 percent recycled galvanized steal, Windells doing their part to be GREEN.  We are also building a DrySlope with 5 Jib Options – Stay Tuned for more info.
