Zumiez Best Foot Forward Contest #2 Portland, OR

The great Pacific Northwest brings up 3 images in my head; lush scenery, rainy days and great skateparks. We left the mall parking lot this time and went to Glenhaven Skatepark, the scenery and rain followed. Glenhaven is one of those famous Oregon parks with a great open street course and insane tranny too. Top to bottom, Portland had the best talent on the tour so far. Erik Billups landed frontside bigspin, and double flip, and tre flip down the double set, as well as front noseslide and tail fakie down the hubba. Willis Kimbel was flying all over the park and had the best lines of the day. Steve Howell wowed the crowd with tricks that you never see on a long board and was tabbed The New Era Originator of the day.

3rd went to Sebo Walker as he killed the hip with nollie inward heel, nollie backside flip and nollie flipped and switch flipped the double set. 2nd was Mike Davis in the toughest decision for the judges so far. He landed back foot flip and tre flip down the double, blunt fakie down the big rail, backside big spin disaster revert and blunt kickflip on the quarter. 1st went to Anthony Grant with back tail fakie and kickflip over the big rail, kickflip back lip on the other rail, kickflip up the stair set, nollie half cab heel, nollie bigspin heel, switch backside flip and switch backside heel over the hip as well as too many others to list skating the whole park with style. See you in Minneapolis for the BFF Finals Anthony!

what a great idea! lets have guys chasing each other with camera's on the contest park!

splendid, who cares about crashing?

dude, we all know you cant film everything up close in a contest or demo. especially in a situation like this filmers would only be in the way of the skaters. and a fisheye would only be a good choice for up close filming. but in situations like this there are so many tricks going on it is best to keep more distance and capture more tricks on film like this guy did.

he actually did a good job at filming, it was all very watchable.

And get a fisheye lens and film up closer.

pretty crappy filming hope you get better cameras for this year
