  • 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

  • Skate Parks: a Guide for Landscape Architects and Planners
    SKATE PARKS: A GUIDE FOR LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS AND PLANNERS by DESMOND POIRIER B.F.A., Rhode Island School of Design, Providence, Rhode Island, 1999. A THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE Department of Landscape Architecture College of Regional and Community Planning KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2008 Approved by: Major Professor Stephanie A. Rolley, FASLA, AICP Copyright DESMOND POIRIER 2008 Abstract Much like designing golf courses, designing and building skateboard parks requires very specific knowledge. This knowledge is difficult to obtain without firsthand experience of the sport in question. An understanding of how design details such as alignment, layout, surface, proportion, and radii of the curved surfaces impact the skateboarder’s experience is essential and, without it, a poor park will result. Skateboarding is the fastest growing sport in the US, and new skate parks are being fin- ished at a rate of about three per day. Cities and even small towns all across North America are committing themselves to embracing this sport and giving both younger and older participants a positive environment in which to enjoy it. In the interest of both the skateboarders who use them and the people that pay to have them built, it is imperative that these skate parks are built cor- rectly. Landscape architects will increasingly be called upon to help build these public parks in conjunction with skate park design/builders. At present, the relationship between landscape architects and skate park design/builders is often strained due to the gaps in knowledge between the two professions.

Skateboarders appear to use roadways much as other non‐ motorized modes do. However, there is little academic research on the needs and characteristics of the skateboard as a mode. This research reports demographics, multi‐modal and travel behavior findings, and other data from an exploratory mixed‐methods study of skateboarding as a mode of transportation. i For the skaters who showed me the familiar city as a new and different landscape.

  • 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.

    SKATEBOARDING JUDGING CRITERIA Park & Street 1 Table of Contents: 1. Judging Mission Statement 2. Judging Philosophy 3. Overall Impression 4. Judging Criteria a. Difficulty b. Execution c. Use of Course d. Flow e. Consistency 5. Judging Scale a. Park Scoring b. Street Scoring 6. Glossary 2 WORLD SKATEBOARDING COMISSION | JUDGING CRITERIA July the 24th 2019 1. JUDGING MISSION STATEMENT World Skate Judging Criteria has been created to foster continual progression of the sport while highlighting the importance of creativity and originality of skateboarding in competition. 2. JUDGING PHILOSOPHY Skateboarding judging doesn’t exist to standardize or create a definition of what is considered good skateboarding; it is strictly a tool to rank performance of skateboarders against each other in any given competition. ● Scoring is based on judging a moment in time. Judging does not rank with respect to past performance or ability; with respect to gender; with respect to adversity, e.g. coming back from an injury or bad slam, etc. ● Judging ranks the skater’s performance against the CURRENT field—tricks and execution only. 3. OVERALL IMPRESSION ● The judging panel will use the below criteria to formulate a single score based on overall impression of a skater’s performance within the parameters of the competition. 4. JUDGING CRITERIA (in order of priority) ● Difficulty ○ Trick Performed ○ Obstacle Selection ○ Repetition ■ Tricks ■ Trick Components ● Execution ○ Quality of Execution (pre-landing) ○ Style ■ Fluidity / Power / Aggression / Aesthetics (subjective) ■ Speed (objective) ■ Height / Distance (objective) ■ Quality of Landing (objective) ● Use of Course ○ Quantity of Tricks ■ More tricks are typically better, but a higher number of tricks will not necessarily result in a higher score, as the value of difficulty and execution are more important in formulating an overall impression score.
