Priscilla Lee and her 7 year old brother Alex, were both invited to the Jesse James Magazine photo shoot. They had a BLAST, to say the least. Under those pics are pics by Ray Zimmerman aka MRZ. It was a rad day for Priscilla and Alex. Priscilla is the first girl to go over the “Love Seat” and the “Doggie Hole” at Mammoth. She also ripped up the competition, comming in first in both the street & vert competition. CONGRATS PRISCILLA, Way to go Alex!!! Alex skated the cradle with NO FEAR. Earning the respect of all in attendance!

Day 2, Pier Park
Clear skies were on hand for this Grass-roots party. The Oregon support was in full swing on this day. With the smell of Bar-B-Q and loud music flowing through the air. This was a 100% Skate-Fest. The rounds got going early. It all started off w/ the ladies division once again kicking off the festivities. Just as the previous day before, Julie Kinstrand topped the field. This young lady KILLS IT!! She’s for sure @ the top of the ladies division, but coming in right behind her is Embassy’s own Priscilla Lee. CONGRATS to Priscilla on representing and coming in 2nd place. She kills the vert. Priscilla’s goal was to finish in the top 2 or 3, she achieved her goal. For only being 12 years old, she ripped Pier Park like a seasoned vet. We look forward to representing again next year. The Ladies Pro division is no joke, and it’s just a matter of time before Priscilla Lee is a house-hold name. Again CONGRATS Priscilla!!!

In the Pro Division, Embassy was well represented. Gary Morris & Capn’t Gnar Gnar Ben Johnson did a lot better than @ Tigard the day before. This place was more their liking. Congrats to Ben for going over the mouse hole on his 2nd try. After further review, and checking out the video footage he cleared it by over a foot. AWESOME Ben, you killed it!! Gary skated without a shirt, and had a message with sharpie, check out the pics from Earth Patrol Media. He skated the place fast and smooth, frontside one-footed frigid airs, madonna no tail, judo airs. He had it all. Ben & Gary respectfully came in 21st & 22nd out of 56 riders. After it was all said and done, once again like last year Benji Galloway came out on top. He totally shredded the place. I’ve yet to go to an event without Mark “Red” Scott doing something of “Shock-Value”. The highlight of the day was seeing him shoot the bottle rocket through the full pipe,to the sounds of Johnny Cash’s “I’ve been everywhere” and drop in while it was going off. The crowd went CRAZY!

The Masters killed again, what can I say! CONGRATS to Ken Fillion for finishing in 7th once again out of 24. He killed his runs. He made use of the whole bowl, while showing off his trademark tuck-knee contorted inverts and stylish big backside airs. For a guy 45 years young, he still skates with enthusiasm and charge’s it harder that thousand’s of skaters half his age. Way to go Ken!!! The Bi-Fecta is history, Overall the Embassy crew represented Loud & Proud. Thanks to EVERYONE who helped put this on. Oregon will always be on the agenda for Embassy. Hope to see everybody again next year. Next up “Rock the Cradle” in Houston, TX. October 24th. This is a sanction World Cup Event. It will count for points on the World Cup circuit. See you there “RIDE WITH PRIDE”

What a killer day! The Crown Royale was off the chain. Skaters from all over came represent. We’re proud to announce Embassy’s Priscilla Lee getting 3rd place in the “Ladies Pro Division”. She killed with her patented switch stance routine. Rock-n-Rolls and big frontside airs on the big vert wall. Nice transfer’s, killer style. She is on the rise. Looks like this little lady will be ranking up there for many moons to come. Time is on her side, we expect GREAT things for Priscilla. CONGRATS!!!

The Men’s division didn’t fare as well for Gary Morris & Ben Johnson. The contest was held mostly in the street section of the park. Ben did kill it with his stylish smith’s and tail slide’s on the vert wall. Gary did land his 540 McTwist on his first try during the jam, and he also did some sick frontside tail taps off the dinosaur’s head. Gary’s was stoked to have his first competition on the National stage behind him. We’ll chalk this one down as a good learning positive experience. Ben & Gary were both hyped and look forward to the bowl (Corn Cup) session @ Pier Park on Sunday.

THE MASTERS: Being from the “Old School” I looked forward for this. Embassy Team Captain Ken Fillion skated hard for a 7th place finish out of 24. With not having to much practice, hell for having “no Practice” in the street course, he KILLED it. Sick Tuck-knee inverts and big backside airs off the vert wall. He flowed the park, hitting the corners and just having fun. Buck Smith the reigning Tri-Fecta champ did it again, with his smooth lines, awesome style and SICK frontside inverts, the judges took in consideration Buck had been drinking all day. This guy just kills it. Lance Mountain came in a well deserved 2nd. It was cool to see the star power mingling around the crowd, with Tri-Fecta being such a Grass-roots event. The Crown Royale was a 100% good time. Embassy looks forward to representing next year!!
