Oregon Sunshine.

by Tyler Maine
Jun 3, 2011

Timing your road trips in the spring is everything, especially this year with winter holding on longer than most of us out west were bargaining for. Geoff Gulevich, Ross Measures and Harookz snuck down to Oregon for a quick strike of sunshine, a visit to the DAKINE offices, and bit of riding in Hood River and Bend. Here are a few video’s and shot’s from the trip.

Wrapping it up in Bend and heading north. A quick strike to Oregon can deliver on sun and some good riding if the timing is right.

 Gully is a badass! We went snowboarding in some thigh deep powder at Whistler last winter and he was killing it on the board too!
