  • 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.

  • Reversing the Isolation and Inadequacies of Skateparks: Designing To
    REVERSING THE ISOLATION AND INADEQUACIES OF SKATEPARKS: DESIGNING TO SUCCESSFULLY INTEGRATE SKATEBOARDING INTO DOWNTOWN LURAY, VIRGINIA by DANIEL BENJAMIN PENDER (Under the Direction of Bruce K. Ferguson) ABSTRACT Skateboarding has become the fastest rising social sport in America. Historically, this sport tends to attract a stereotyped grungy, nomadic, “pack-oriented” crowd that thrives off of the buzz of performing tricks in urban spaces. Unfortunately, this self- expressive crowd, as well as the destructive nature of the sport, has caused much of the general public to form negative opinions of skateboarding. Because of this, in combination with recent trends to “green up” cities and to accommodate for the sport’s increasing popularity, skateboarding (both physically and socially) is being forced to the outskirts of communities where poorly-built, less accessible, and environmentally insensitive skateparks are taking the place of socially rich urban skating environments. This thesis investigates the social/environmental issues associated with isolated and inadequate skateparks and the implications they may have on the future of the sport. Insight gained is applied to a skatepark design for my hometown of Luray, Virginia.

THE FORBIDDEN CONJUNCTION PROLOGUE Skateboarding is a tenacious obsession for the those who began doing it early on in their teenage years. Forms created by skate- boarding can be seen more and more in galleries, museums and some of the most significant manifestations of contemporary art. This fact, which some might see as a simple phenomenon of fash- ion, is nothing less than the outcome of a logical evolution: the young skaters who just twenty years ago infested public spaces and built mini-ramps in their backyards, are now of the age to exhibit in Documenta. Skateboarding structures the world view of those who prac- tice it. Despite itself, it engenders a reevaluation of spaces and materials otherwise taken for granted.

  • Skate, Illustration and the Other Side of the Skateboard
    4.8. Deka – skate, illustration and the other side of the skateboard Jorge Brandão Pereira 1 Diogo Valente 2 Diogo Soares 2 Paula Tavares 2 Abstract Skate and skatebording culture emerge from the street space, which simultaneously influences artists, designers, illustrators, musicians, writers, filmmakers and creatives. The Deka project focuses on this relationship between the urban culture of skateboarding and illustration and the expressions that this relationship trigger. To this research, various activities were structured throughout 2013, such as artistic events, a graphic diary and the participation on the ‘Milhões de Festa’ festival, with the outreach event ‘Dekalhões’, where was spurred an environment that combined art, illustration, music and local skaters, wrapped in a diverse audience. The action plan was structured in order to promote new artists and the skate culture in Northern Portugal, through research and analysis of intervention opportunities at public events, physical spaces and digital universes. It is sustained that this urban counter-culture is an opportunity to enhance and Express creativity and the case study of the research reinforces its potential to become a starting point for artistic intervention. dekaday.tumblr.com Keywords: illustration, skate, urban culture Background and context The practical-based project happens with the aim of combining and bringinf to Skateboarding other parallel perspectives. Having Skateboarding as a starting point, from it emerge associated various hypotheses or ideas to explore: (i) skate as inspiration for artistic creation, (ii) in the dissemination and support to the activity and (iii) as an agent of integration of all the surrounding culture in a new context. Allied to Graffiti and Music, Skate emerges from the street space, influencing artists, designers, illustrators, musicians, writers, directors, designers and other creatives.
