"Built without permission, by skateboarders and later sanctioned by the city, Burnside is the preeminent example of action.... Like a magnifying glass in the sun, Burnside can witness a concentration of skill level unmatched anywhere. You can see crazy, crazy things there. Go, watch, learn, be humbled, excited and inspired. It is amazing."What's up with the history of Burnside?
Thursday, June 3
I'm working on the real history of Burnside from day one until now, but it's going to take a little while to get it together. When it's done I'll add a link to it for everyone's viewing pleasure.
I'm also going to create a quote's page that will basically have any and all quotes that I can muster up from anything printed concerning Burnside. The quote's page will be an ongoing project as there is a ton of mateial to go through to make it as complete as I can. If you have seen any quotes in anything that's printed or on the web that's worth checking out, leave a link to it or let me know what date, issue, etc. in the comments at the bottom of this post.
So keep your eye out for the links that I'll add someday to get the real history of Burnside and see what others have said about the park.
Who are these guys that kill it at Burnside? The plan is to interview a different local each month to get different views from the people that skate one of the best parks in the world.
