Because not everyone is content to wait around until the Earth's natural geologic activity outpaces Seattle Process by burping up a lava flow miraculously formed into the shape of a skatepark, Grindline and River City Skatepark are going it alone. Sorta. They're attempting to put together a privately developed public skate park in the heart of South Park (because, yeah, we were wondering about "River City" too). When it's finished, there will be a huge bowl section, an extensive street park, and offices for the skatepark design company Grindline. They just got finished clearing the lot.

Winter sports enthusiasts of Seattle, there's life beyond Warren Miller ski movies. We are so tired of how tired they are. Despite recent attempts on old Uncle Miller's part to incorporate "new" styles and footage into his films (news alert Warren: snowboarding has been around for multiple decades now), his annual fall films only amount to aggregious Nissan commercials interspersed with that same old story about how he started out in Sun Valley. If we hear "When I was camping in my van in the parking lot outside Sun Valley in 1950..." one more time, our brains will definitely be exiting our ears right quick.
