Bodyslam 6.3
Tuesday, March 23rd, 2010
Dang, I can’t believe I’ve been sitting on this partially completed for over two years. Photos and words from our November 2007 Cannonball Run – Buy Nothing Skate Everything Day. We hit the Burnside, Woodland, Battle Ground, Vancouver, Pier Park, Glenhaven, West Linn, Holly Farm, Tigard skateparks in about eight hours. The Bodyslam 6.3 micro ’zine is all high contrast black and white this time. Available as a 600K pdf for you to print out, fold and staple from the Bodyslam page.
