Unless you’ve been living underneath a rotting mini ramp in the woods, you undoubtedly already know that Milton Martinez is our 2019 Skater of the Year. We celebrated his win this past Friday with a bangin'-ass party in The City by the Bay.

Skateboarding’s top concrete crushers slug it out on the insane terrain of Red’s Lincoln City, Oregon – parks, pits, dirt and destruction. Grindline the Band, Arctic, Bad Shit and many more provide the soundtrack as the crew pushes the limits for those who can’t. Pure mayhem and good times! Where were you?!

Willis Kimbel and the Deko Boko crew shred Burnside to hype up his new Creature board.

From backyard pools to pump tracks to the hills, Gregson manages to follow-film while his subjects go crazy. This is high-level skating and equally impressive documentation. Enjoy the show...

These days, it's seems like if dudes aren't in the streets getting it, they're at the bowling alley knocking back pins (and brews) and kicking it with the homies. With that vibe in mind, OJ took some of the crew out to the Midwest to throw some rocks with the locals.

Burnside’s birthday happens to be the spookiest day of the year. In celebration of its 28th trip around the sun, worshippers of this holy site donned their costumes and paid respect with frontside grinds and good times.

The Burnside Skatepark celebrated its 28th birthday this year and the party was one of the biggest ones yet. A little rain didn't stop any of the festivities and the music and skating went on late into the night.

With it heating up down South, the OJ squad figured it was time to hit some pools.

Prepare yourself for 20 minutes of raw, DIY annihilation, as seen through the lens of Chris Gregson.
