  • Clash at Clairemont Sponsorship Opportunities
    CLASH AT CLAIREMONT SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES • Now in its 11th year, Clash at Clairemont began in 2007 as a cooperative effort between pro skateboarder Andy Macdonald, the YMCA, Mike Rogers’ Grind for Life cancer charity, and industry sponsors like PacSun and SoBe beverages. • The inaugural event was a celebration of upgrades to the YMCA’s Krause Family Skate & Bike Park in San Diego, which included the addition of the 2006 X Games vert ramp. It provided an opportunity to create a fundraiser to benefit the park and Grind for Life. The event, which featured over 45 top action sports athletes, live music, and a family-friendly atmosphere, was a huge success. An annual classic was born! • Each year from 2008 to 2016, Clash at Clairemont has returned with the very best athletes from skateboarding and BMX along with outstanding musical acts and solid industry sponsor support. Attendance and media attention has skyrocketed and Clash at Clairemont has cemented its first-class reputation as a family-oriented celebration of action sports and charitable cause! • In 2013, Clash at Clairemont featured the Sonic Generations of Skate, presented by SEGA. This unique team competition format paid tribute to three generations of halfpipe skateboa rders. Clash 7 was seen on Fox Sports Network by over 1.1 million viewers! • In 2016, the 10th anniversary of Clash at Clairemont, Skatercross® Skateboard Racing debuted in front of a record crowd. It aired on ABC’s World of X Games and was seen by more than 850,000 households, garnering incredible ratings and intro- ducing a new discipline of skateboarding to the world.

  • THF-2008-Annual-Report
    PAVING THE WAY 2008 ANNUAL REPORT TO HEALTHY COMMUNITIES Letter From The Founder 2008 flew past and we are stronger than ever. Even in a shaky economy, we’ve been able to help create more public skateparks in low-income areas than in previous years. It’s all thanks to the tireless work of our staff and our generous donors. But plenty of communities are still in need, and we hope to continue making the same positive differences in their lives as we have with our previous grant recipients. Orcas Island, Washington In 2008, we managed to raise over 1.5-million dollars at our Stand Up For Skateparks events, and we even hosted our first East Coast event in The Hamptons. But our mission is far from over. In fact, what we’ve learned this year is just how great the need for our assistance remains. In 2008 we awarded 668,516 dollars to 59 communities (compared to $525,500 to 53 communities in 2007). That’s a 27-percent increase in grant funding over 2007. Which brings us to 409 grants worth over 2.7-million dollars to help build skateparks since our inception in 2002. Tony Hawk flies over the Nathan Lazarus Skatepark in Nederland, Colorado I cannot stress enough the importance of skateparks in high-risk areas—they offer kids a safe place to go and something to do that gives them a sense of self-esteem they may never find anywhere else. This is especially true when those very kids are the ones petitioning the city with the hope of getting their own place to skate.

  • Concept For: Australian Skateboarding Book David Pang 11Aug2005
    Concept for: Australian Skateboarding Book David Pang 11Aug2005 Proposal: To create the definitive coffee table book on skateboarding in Australia, with a key principle to be unbiased toward any sector of skateboarding and coverage (individual, company, location, photographer, writer etc). Vertical, street will be the majority of the focus but other areas (luge, slalom, cross country, speed etc) will not be overlooked. My concept is to implement this publication in a co-operative manner in which all contributors accept the risk in this publication, but if the final product is the quality and success that I hope it will be, we will have all agreed on the percentage contribution that we have all made towards this product and we will share the fruits of the publications success (once a profit has been realised). The baseline- standard I am aiming for is: • Indy’s Built to grind; http://www.independenttrucks.com/book/index.htm • Disposable- skate deck history; http://disposablethebook.com/ • Legend, Dog Town and the Z boys; http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/0964191644/ref=sib_dp_pt/102- 4349672-5424160#reader-page • Media and personalities (clippings and stories) for each era and state! o (Please send in any clippings {with relevant details; Newspaper, date, etc}. or let me know and I will sort out Scanning Details for inclusion) The format so far is as follows: Introduction Clay Wheels, Oak Decks and Flares: (1960s and 1970s); New South Wales • Skaters o Midget Farrelly • John and Paul – Surfskate manufacturing co David Pangs, Skateboard Book

  • Return to Form: Analyzing the Role of Media in Self-Documenting Subcultures
    RETURN TO FORM: ANALYZING THE ROLE OF MEDIA IN SELF-DOCUMENTING SUBCULTURES GLEN WOOD A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN CINEMA AND MEDIA STUDIES YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO August 2020 © Glen Wood, 2020 Abstract This dissertation examines self-documenting subcultures and the role of media within three case studies: hardcore punk, skateboarding, and urban dirt-bike riding. The production and distribution of subcultural media is largely governed by intracultural industries. Elite practitioners and media-makers are incentivized to document performances that are deemed essential to the preservation of the status quo. This constructed dependency reflects and reproduces an ethos of conformity that pervades both social interactions and subcultural representations. Within each self-documenting subculture, media is the primary mode of socialization and representation. The production of media and meaning is constrained by the presence of prescriptive formal conventions propagated by elite producers. These conditions, in part, result in the institutionalization of conformity. The three case studies illustrate the theoretical and methodological framework that classifies these formations under a new typology. Accordingly, this dissertation introduces an alternative approach to the study of subcultures. ii Acknowledgments My academic career is based upon the support of numerous individuals, organizations, and institutions. I would like to thank John McCullough for his inspiring words and utter confidence in my work. Moreover, Markus Reisenleitner and Steve Bailey were integral throughout the dissertation process, encouraging my progress and providing their thoughtful commentary along the way. I am also greatly appreciative of the external reviewers for their time and evaluations.

  • Skate Life: Re-Imagining White Masculinity by Emily Chivers Yochim
    /A7J;(?<; technologies of the imagination new media in everyday life Ellen Seiter and Mimi Ito, Series Editors This book series showcases the best ethnographic research today on engagement with digital and convergent media. Taking up in-depth portraits of different aspects of living and growing up in a media-saturated era, the series takes an innovative approach to the genre of the ethnographic monograph. Through detailed case studies, the books explore practices at the forefront of media change through vivid description analyzed in relation to social, cultural, and historical context. New media practice is embedded in the routines, rituals, and institutions—both public and domestic—of everyday life. The books portray both average and exceptional practices but all grounded in a descriptive frame that ren- ders even exotic practices understandable. Rather than taking media content or technol- ogy as determining, the books focus on the productive dimensions of everyday media practice, particularly of children and youth. The emphasis is on how specific communities make meanings in their engagement with convergent media in the context of everyday life, focusing on how media is a site of agency rather than passivity. This ethnographic approach means that the subject matter is accessible and engaging for a curious layperson, as well as providing rich empirical material for an interdisciplinary scholarly community examining new media. Ellen Seiter is Professor of Critical Studies and Stephen K. Nenno Chair in Television Studies, School of Cinematic Arts, University of Southern California. Her many publi- cations include The Internet Playground: Children’s Access, Entertainment, and Mis- Education; Television and New Media Audiences; and Sold Separately: Children and Parents in Consumer Culture.

A Study of Authenticity and Nike SB Brandon Gomez Syracuse University Follow this and additional works at: https://surface.syr.edu/ms_thesis Part of the Marketing Commons, and the Sports Studies Commons Recommended Citation Gomez, Brandon, "How Did Nike Get the Swoosh into Skateboarding? A Study of Authenticity and Nike SB" (2012). Media Studies - Theses. 3. https://surface.syr.edu/ms_thesis/3 This Thesis is brought to you for free and open access by the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at SURFACE. It has been accepted for inclusion in Media Studies - Theses by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract Skateboarding is widely regarded as a subculture that is highly resistant to any type of integration or co-option from large, mainstream companies. In 2002 Nike entered the skateboarding market with its Nike SB line of shoes, and since 2004 has experienced tremendous success within the skateboarding culture. During its early years Nike experienced a great deal of backlash from the skateboarding community, but has recently gained wider acceptance as a legitimate company within this culture. The purpose of this study is to examine the specific aspects of authenticity Nike was able achieve in order to successfully integrate into skateboarding. In order to investigate the case of Nike SB specifically, the concept of company authenticity within skateboarding must first be clarified as well. This study involved an electronic survey of skateboarders.

Alongside gritty urban streets, new skate terrains have emerged, from DIY constructions, flow bowls and street plazas to longboard parks, multistory wonderlands and hybrid public spaces. Skateboarding's influence even extends to preservation, heritage, planning and urban politics. Entering a skate shop, you are as likely to see branded shoes and t-shirts as actual skateboards. Inevitably, big companies are also involved, including the likes of Adidas, Levi's, New Balance, Nike and Vans. Many university academics are even now Flying free.
