In case you missed the Session 8 skate edit, here it is for you now! For one week, campers were lucky enough to have the Concrete Jungle as their home base. Every day is a good day when you wake up to over 50,000 square feet of concrete in your backyard.

If you love to skate, having the Concrete Jungle as your backyard for the summer, if the best thing you could ask for. Such is the case for Skate Coach Ian Neal, who by day takes camps all over Oregon and Washington skateparks, and then heads back to the Windells campus to host games of SKATE, kickflip challenges, and skate the concrete.
Ian put together a bunch of his shots from this summer, check it out!

Check out the recap videos from session 6!
Six down, one to go, and still riding down to the parking lot. What a summer it’s been. Session 6 couldn’t have been any better. We had a ton of fun riding the park and sunny skies everyday.
The Surface team dropped in at Windells for skiing, skating, games, and even tie dying.
Session 6 Skate… so much skating.

Summer’s more than halfway over and at Windells, we’re trying to figure out where the time has gone (it probably has something to do with all of the snowboarding and skating we’ve been doing the last two months). It’s sunny out, there’s tons of snow, and each week the park keeps getting better and better. Session 5 just came to a close, and if you missed it, here’s what went down. Continue reading →

Each session Atmosphere puts on a skateboard race for campers. The course runs from BOB, weaving through the Concrete Jungle and ending behind Dex’s shop. Campers go head to head in the race and win sweet prizes from Atmosphere. It’s always a really fun event to participate in or watch. Check out these photos from the Session 2 Atmosphere Skate Race.

Chris Hagerty came all the way to Hood, via Colorado, to start of his summer shred with this back five stale.
Summer has officially begun at Mount Hood. The jumps are salted, the towropes are turning, and campers are strapping in and learning new tricks. Session 1 just wrapped at Windells and it was a seriously sick start to the season. The mountain is completely white, with over 100 inches of snow more than usual, and the Windells Diggers have crafted one of their best parks ever: two separate jib areas and all of the jumps, hips, and quarters that your summer-shredding heart could desire.
