Hey

[carolinesucks]

Hi, my name is Caroline. I'm from Seattle. I like to skate and play music and be outside. I'm pretty stoked that this website exists

I'm about to head out on my first trip down the west coast with my best friend, Erik. We're gonna hit up all the skate parks, a few hikes and swim spots, and see some friends along the way.
If anyone who reads this knows about some cool places to stop or some punk shows happening around the west coast in September let me know!

Thanks for reading.

Yo, Caroline.

I'm taking the west coast down right now. Exploring a lot of new places. Learned about some valuable resources, too.

I haven't skated in 15+ years, but if you end up going through PDX/Eugene, they have sweet parks. They're both pretty sketch at night, though.

Update this thread as you go and we can help each other.

When you leave? How you moving?

 

[carolinesucks]

Thanks for replying! maybe leaving sometime next week. were gonna hitchhike mostly.

 

[Rhubarb Dwyer]

Sweet. Keep us posted.

Update: Santa Cruz (duh) has deep skate culture. Saw at least one nice park.
Monterey has a rad park in a really cool spot. It was designed by 40 local skaters. Saw a bunch of videos being filmed there and some crazy skills, even from the youngbloods.

Yea it did!! Well kinda. We took like 3 weeks down the coast and got to SF and ran out of money and decided to get a seasonal job in the grand canyon for a month. So we're here till October. then we'll have some more money and hopefully a banjo. Going to texas to skate after this job.
