Alright Party People

After last year was cancelled due to flocks of murderous geese, were back!

Your Portland Esk8 crew would like to throw the Softest Esk8 Event That Ever Was.

Naw just kidding, we’re gonna get rowdy.

Come join us for an extended weekend skating around the gorgeous PNW. Portland is one of the skate capitals of the US, with hundreds of miles of dedicated bike paths, trails, & plenty of streets to shred.

In Portland, you can legally street ride and are offered the full protections as bicyclists. Combined with an average speed limit of 25-35mph for cars, this makes a perfect environment for us to descend upon with our electric murder sticks.

Helmets are required and we encourage appropriate safety gear.

Carve PDX 2021

• Hell yeah I’m coming!
• Firm maybe, will cry if I miss it.
• Naw, I’m just here for attention.

[ShutterShock]

I really wish I could make it up there this year! Sounds like it’s going to be an awesome event with all those rides and interesting things to do.

Next year I’ll make sure to block out those dates, and hopefully will be less busy.

Hopefully people post some pictures and stuff here in the thread so those of us that couldn’t make it get to see some stuff that went down

[Skatardude10]

Sounds like a blast.

How do you guys send your boards if not driving - mail battery and check board ?

I’ve got 2 months of time off I need to use at some point and this wouldn’t be a bad excuse to use some especially since it’s on a weekend.

[DerelictRobot]

Yes. You can either ship your board/battery to Hoyt St Electric or myself. PM for details & hop in the chat.

[longhairedboy]

I’m driving every board i can get running up there. so pumped. just ordered fresh tires.

[PedroMcJimenez]

Damn that’s a drive! Happen to be going through MN on the way?

[Tamatoa]

@DerelictRobot

(Extended camping trip 23-25th)

Are there any spots left in your backyard?

[DEEIF]

@DerelictRobot

Lunch at Mercado

Mexican food?

[poastoast]

i’m here for the attention, but i’m crying that i’m missing it

[jack.luis]

Ugh gonna have to figure out how to send this fucking thing over

Thinking ; battery modules in a pelican case in the mail

Deck+electronics with no drivetrain in a rifle case, in the mail

Drivertrain in a suitcase with me on the plane.

Maybe also bring Playahaya

[poastoast]

you can take your board with you as carryon

without batteries, matbe take the wheels off an shove in check in with clothes

[SeanHacker]

@DEEIF

Mexican food?

More than that. They have all types of good food trucks (permanent) there. So good!

[DEEIF]

We have a Mercado restaurant here, assuming same Mercado! Highly recommend!

[Paul77]

Damn I wish I could go, I hope y’all post a bunch of pics for us bums that can’t make it.

[abusfullofnuns]

I’m sure it’s not. It’s a outdoor market with 10 or so food trucks lined up. They have a ton of different countries represented. Mostly South American if I remember right. I had a gangster burrito and my kid had a empanada.

[Evwan]

His deck is 50 lbs or smthn

[jack.luis]

The whole build is. Idk about the deck, I should check

[J0ker]

Who is @Skunk? Must be new lol.

As much as I’d love to make it, megadeth, lamb of god, trivium and hatebreed are taking priority. If plans fall through Carve is the fall back.

Edit: forgot about the other bands lol

[poastoast]

mine is too
