Northwest Day 9 - Tigard, OR







After another peaceful sleep we go up and pointed the Fit towards Portland, OR. First up on the agenda for the day was Tigard, OR. This is a super clean, newer Dreamland park. I hit it up for a short time last year. We met up with Paul Miller from Denver again and a few of his buddies were just leaving for Astoria when we arrived. We had a nice morning warm up sesh.

Tigard is such a fun park, the transitions are mellow but there all kinds of fly out transfer possiblities as there is this double fly out pocket thing on one side of the bowl. It is so fun, I made most of the transfers backside but decided it was pressing my luck frontside so I left it at that... But it was big fun!! The "streetcourse" is not really a streetcourse at all, it is more like a crazy bowled ditch with rad banks, Q-pipes, a rolling volcano and all kinds of coping and parking blocks. T


The pyramid is really two pool shallow corners with tight transitions, stamped brick surface.. OH, sooooo good!!
