    THF_newsletter_back.pdf 1 5/14/12 5:17 PM From The Founder The past year has been great for THF, for public skateparks, and for skateboarding in general. We reached a few foundation milestones, including supporting over 500 public skateparks (505 to be exact) in all 50 States, totaling more than $4-million in funding. Our 2011 Stand Up For Skateparks events were the best yet, with The Black Keys rocking in Beverly Hills and Ben Harper killing it in Vegas. Our staff is more efficient than ever in providing resources and information to communities starting their skatepark projects. And the parks that have opened recently are the best we’ve seen. But despite our successes and the achievements of the groups we work with across the country, we can see that there is so much more to do to help communities address the needs of their youth. In 2011, we saw 22 skateparks that received THF grants open. That means of the 505 skateparks that we’ve helped fund over the past decade, 418 are open—or 82%! With approximately 3,500 skateparks in the U.S., we have contributed to 12% of them. The process of getting a skatepark teaches kids in the community valuable lessons about perse- verance and that working with their city leaders can be a positive experience. The most common lesson that skaters cite is that with persistence and hard work, their dreams can be realized. The leaders cite that the youth develop a level of ownership and pride in the skatepark that they hadn’t anticipated.

  • An Ethnolexicography of the Skateboarding Subculture
    AN ETHNOLEXICOGRAPHY OF THE SKATEBOARDING SUBCULTURE By HO’OMANA NATHAN HORTON Bachelor of Arts in English Oklahoma Wesleyan University Bartlesville, OK 2013 Master of Arts in English Oklahoma State University Stillwater, OK 2015 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY July, 2020 AN ETHNOLEXICOGRAPHY OF THE SKATEBOARDING SUBCULTURE Dissertation Approved: Dennis R. Preston Adviser Carol Moder Chair Nancy Caplow G. Allen Finchum ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This work is dedicated to the memory of my grandfather, Hershall "Jigger" Horton, a true craftsman, who taught me that there are so many important, valuable skills and tools that can’t be learned in a classroom alone. And to Mrs. Carol Preston, the most welcoming and genuine person I think I've ever known, who always kept my desk well- stocked with humanitarian literature, and who cared so sincerely about everyone she met, and taught me to care for people and our planet more deeply every day. First and foremost, I want to thank my adviser, Dr. Dennis Preston, whose encouragement and mentorship have fueled this project from the start. When I started graduate school, I don't think I would ever have imagined I'd be writing a dissertation about skateboarding, but your genuine interest in this topic, and all that you've done to help me go beyond description and into a deeper understanding of language and society have enabled this work. I thank you also for bringing me on as a lab assistant in 2014 when I was just a grungy little skater with very little idea of what I was doing in academia.

Colour in the Lines: The Racial Politics and Possibilities of US Skateboarding Culture A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Waikato by Neftalie S. Williams 2020 Abstract This thesis examines the informal sporting culture of skateboarding as a contested site of racial politics in the United States of America (US). Action sports scholars have long identified the ‘whiteness’ of this sport but rarely created space for the voices of people of colour (POC) within skateboarding. Underpinned by Critical Race Theory (CRT), this project centralizes the previously unheard voices of POC and reveals the unique challenges, strategies, and successes of POC within the elite skateboarding culture across particular historical contexts of skateboarding and within US society. With the aim of understanding the complex and nuanced experiences of race within the skateboarding culture, sport, and industry, I conducted semi-structured interviews with forty male and seven female skateboarders of colour who have played critical roles in the culture as athletes, company owners, managers and media producers.

  • Tony Hawkʼs Pro Skater Pro Skateboarder Nominations Created
    Tony Hawkʼs Pro Skater Pro Skateboarder Nominations Created: March 1, 2002 Non-Confi dential: Written by Noe Valladolid Visitors: These are the suggestions originally posted on the THPS Nominations webpage for Planet Tony Hawk. Enjoy, Noe Valladolid -------------------- Welcome to the Nominations Page for Tony Hawkʼs Pro Skater™ This page was created to help nominate pro skaters to be considered for placement in the Tony Hawkʼs Pro Skater videogame series. This page was not created, nor does it refl ect the opinions of Activision or Neversoft, the respective publishers and creators of the game. This is a fan site and all legal questions regarding the use of the THPS name belong to Activision. This page is only for educational purposes. Who am I and why did I make this page? My name is Noe Valladolid, I am the West Coast Correspondent for Planet Tony Hawk. I am the person who attends the E3 every year and brings you the news right off the show fl oor. I was also one of the Twelve World Finalists in the THPS2 competition in San Francisco. So I know my way around the game and I also know a little something about skateboarding. As for why I made this page it was because of the trust Neversoft puts in the opinions of THPS game players and skateboarders whenever there is a question about the game. Whether it be soundtrack, gameplay, graphics or animation, the people at Neversoft are always listening to feedback. During the 2001 E3 this is the direct quote that Ralph DʼAmato from Neversoft told me regarding adding new pros to THPS3.

And even obsessive freaks should stick around for the tale Louison has so lucidly spun. The Impossible is a universal story, told in imminently readable fashion by a tremendously talented writer. It honors the beauty, danger, and complexity of the sport, and lays bare its physical and psychological demands, and greatness. The Impossible and the Fantastic History of Skateboarding some of the finest writing on skating I've seen. I read it in one sitting.
