  • Beyond the Board: Findings from the Field
    Beyond the Board: Findings from the Field By Zoë B. Corwin, Tattiya Maruco, Neftalie Williams, Robert Reichardt, Maria Romero-Morales, Christine Rocha, and Constanza Astiazaran Photo credit: Maxim Mosclo (Cover) TABLE OF CONTENTS I: Why this study? 3 II: Where do the data come from? 4 • National Survey 5 • Case Studies 9 III: What do the data tell us about skateboarders? 11 • Mental and Physical Health 12 • Relationships and Community 13 • Race and Gender 16 • Skills 20 IV: Reflections and Recommendations 27 2 WHY THIS STUDY? The narrative around skateboarding is changing. Educational and cultural institutions are beginning to engage with skateboarding in new ways. Skateboard-focused non-profits, after-school programs, and summer camps are rapidly developing. Skateboarding is at the forefront of style and taste-making in popular culture. With the 2020 Olympics on the horizon, we expect even greater attention directed toward skateboarding and skateboarders (skaters). At the same time, skaters still thrive – and sometimes prefer to function – on the margins of mainstream society. Despite growing visibility and popularity, negative misconceptions regarding skateboarding persist. Unfavorable stereotypes affect resource allocation for skaters and impact the treatment they receive from non-skaters. Skaters are often not considered by municipalities, and educational and cultural institutions in the same manner as their other constituents. This report centers skaters’ perspectives with the intention of changing the way the broader community views skateboarding and the skateboarding community. Data highlight the value young people derive from skateboarding and the resources they believe would be helpful in their lives. The study is unique due to the: (1) focus on everyday skaters, (2) consideration of race and gender, (3) its national scope, and (4) the rigorous research methods employed.

  • 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.
