Burnside’s birthday marks 30 years of spills and thrills at the first renegade DIY. Read how the founders took it from vagrant hideaway to Northwest proving ground in our December ‘20 mag piece.

Grillin’ salmon and cookin’ coping, Kowalski does Lincoln City right for Indy. Throw an extra one on for the Big Dog.

Hawk, Provost, Lizzie, Schaar, Kowalski, Fletcher and a massive cast of vert killers attack every concrete wave from SD to Oregon. Roll in with Gregson as he takes lines where no lens has gone before. 

Jaws, Clive, Cookie, Kirby, Gravette, Gartland, Wallin, Pedro and the Pabich bros careen through the Northwest, smashing spots with the head of the hammer. These sessions will have you shook.  

Racing against the rain, the Indy crew rambles from SF to Seattle. Armed with kitty litter and a blow torch, they battle the elements and deadly rails, emerging with a stack of photos and a few war stories. There's no stoppin' when you're sloshin'. 

The Wizard gives you a peak behind the curtain at their sacred rituals for sparking sessions and creating chaos. Gregson deploys his double-threat talents, tearing up the bowls and ditches alongside Given, Rennie, Kowalski and more. Smoldering pentagrams are just the start of the savagery.

No one can lose Gregson, not even in a jungle. One of the fastest filmers in the game takes you on a full-speed rip-ride through São Paulo’s DIYs alongside Kowalksi and a few more lunatics.

Growing up in the Northwest under Red’s wing, Kevin has fulfilled the prophecy—build big shit and the kids will think it’s normal. Glad you’re on the mend and congrats on closing the curtains in The Occult Episode 3! 

Take a trip to the dark side, where the Wizards shed blood and lurk the concrete pits of the underworld. Revel in the ride...
