Metody: Hlavní metodou bylo pozorování a porovnávání závodníků v U-rampě. V každém ročníku ZOH byli vybráni 3 nejlepší sportovci a sportovkyně v dané kategorii. V diplomové práci byla použita metoda porovnávání, pozorování a obsahová analýza. Výsledky: Výsledky přinášejí přehled jednotlivých jízd v U-rampě na ZOH od roku 1998 do roku 2018 v závislosti na zvolených kritériích pozorování. Dále porovnávají vzájemně jednotlivé jízdy a poukazují na vývoj výkonů. Závěr: Vývoj vybraných parametrů byl znatelný, avšak ne zcela kontinuální.

It seems like an odd scenario for the birth of snowboarding. But the Beach Boys had just sold twelve million albums, so it’s not surprising that a land-locked inventor with several industrial patents under his belt got the surfing bug and translated it to snow. “My wife was pregnant and told me I had to do something to get my two daughters out of the house or she was going to go crazy,” said Poppen, who was fascinated by surfing, though he had never tried it.

  • 1 Introducing a Sociology of Snowboarding Bodies 2
    Notes 1 Introducing a Sociology of Snowboarding Bodies 1. Citations from specific magazines, websites, videos and so on are listed in the Bibliography. 2. All interviewees received both an information sheet that outlined the project and their ethical rights, and a consent form. All interviewees had the choice to remain anonymous (full confidentiality), to be partially identified (e.g., occupation, and/ or first name) or to be fully identified (full name and occupation), and signed the consent forms accordingly. While all but two agreed to be fully identified, in this book all interviewees have been given pseudonyms, except where the participant agreed to full disclosure and identifiers (e.g., age, occupation) help contextualize a particular comment or example included in the text. I have removed the full dates of interviews and personal communications. 3. Importantly, I was critically aware that entering virtual spaces for ‘research’ purposes raises many ethical issues, and thus I did not actively participate (e.g., post comments) on interactive websites or forums. Information published on publicly available travel, sport, and local websites, however, was used in con- junction with other cultural artifacts (e.g., magazines, films) with the primary intention of further developing and refining themes emerging in my fieldwork and interviews. 4. Of course, theoretical synthesis is not a new idea for feminists, some of whom have been combining the insights of two or more theoretical traditions for many years (e.g., Marxist feminism). 2 Remembering the Snowboarding Body 1. Early versions of some parts of this discussion originally appeared in Sporting Traditions (see Thorpe, 2010a).

Cognizant of the diminishing numbers of youth viewers, and the growing success of the X Games – the ‘Olympics’ of action sport – the International Olympic Committee (IOC) set about adding a selection of youth-oriented action sports into the Olympic program. In this article we offer the first in-depth discussion of the cultural politics of action sports Olympic incorporation via case studies of windsurfing, snowboarding, and bicycle motocross (BMX). Adopting a post-subcultural theoretical approach, our analysis reveals that the incorporation process, and forms of (sub)cultural contestation, is in each case unique, based on a complex and shifting set of intra- and inter-politics between key agents, namely the IOC and associated sporting bodies, media conglomerates, and the action sport cultures and industries. In so doing, our article illustrates some of the complex power struggles involved in modernizing the Olympic Games in the 21st century. Keywords action sports, cultural politics, incorporation, Olympic Games, youth culture The historical centrality of the Olympics in ‘the rise and spread of international sport’ is beyond doubt (Tomlinson, 2005: 48) and, undeniably, for many it remains the ‘world’s Corresponding author: Holly Thorpe, Department of Sport and Leisure Studies, Faculty of Education, The University of Waikato, Private Bag 3105, Hamilton 3240, New Zealand Email: [email protected] 2 Sociology greatest sporting spectacle’ (Payne, 2005: para.
