Skateboarding Philosophy

I believe that the school can be improved by making a skate park. I say this because a lots of people will pay to get in a skate park. And it will keep a lot of kids of the streets. As long as you don’t make them pay too much then you will make a killing. And with a skate park and good skaters, you can make a skate team. If the team wins a competition, the team may win lots of money. So you won’t be losing any money. When you do auditions for the team, people will cram into the school. The people you need are people that aren’t scared of trying something new. If you make a skate park, less kids will be in trouble in school. There are lots of good skaters that can be on your team, and I know a lot of them.

I will be discussing the sport of tennis, the learning sequences, the skill techniques, learning cues, and teaching styles in that order. First that will be discussed is the learning sequences for the sport of tennis. According to Physical Education Activity Handbook, when you are first getting started with tennis, you need to introduce the scoring and tiebreaker procedures. Next, you need to explain the equipment used in tennis such as tennis balls and the racket. After that, the teacher should explain the rules and etiquette. It is best to introduce when directly related to skill or strategy being taught. Then, the skills and techniques should be taught. The skills and techniques that need to be taught are grips, strokes, the serve,

The norms of skateboarding are more masculinity, participant control and the de- emphasizing of competition. Participant control is that there is not any referee, no penalties or set plays. With the lack of formality, it allowed them to show who they really are. De-emphasizing of competition means to reduce the need of competing against others.

This report is prepared to indicate how I would respond to a scene. It will cover the areas of scene planning, toolkit preparation, evidence collection, and steps of the investigation. The process requires training, common sense, patience, and experience. Ultimately, all critical evidence should be properly collected, stored, and recorded for further analysis. Method Scene Planning One of the main aspects of any investigation is safety.

The insignificant weight, compact size, ease to carry and maneuver, magnificent flex has made it one of the best skateboards for beginners. Anyone learning the basic would find it really useful.

Being a city alderman, I helped developed rules and regulations for a skateboarding park. I have always been a strong fan of skateboards and especially the X Games. The recent X Games in Shanghai was dominated by Americans. Andy McDonald scored an 87.67 to take home the gold. The American known as the "Mac-Attack" used a Kick Flip 540 in both the second and third rounds, to secure his medal. Culture The use of skateboards have become very popular among the younger generation. In some ways, it has become a rebel sport for the younger generation. It combines a bit of the punk culture with sport. Skateboards are used for sporting, transportation, as an art and even a job for those that are professionals. Long-boards are used by many

In Langston Hughes' The Blues I'm Playing, the blues are the source of Oceola's life and her choices. Langston is trying to illustrate the conflict between life and art. The art in this story is represented in a confined manner, as a disciplined career with a white woman acting as the overseer in the young lady's life. Art to Oceola, with its profit, convenience and privileges offers an array of benefits, but being embodied in Dora Ellsworth, the art seems to drift away from life's vitality. Life in Oceola sings itself in jazz and blues in Harlem, ignores the artistic East 63rd Street and the rules by which are claims its superiority. There is a

One soon realizes how unstable their feet may feel as they ride back and forth between the walls of the half pipe. However, when an individual chooses to ride a 9” board, they may find their footing firmly stable. This same concept applies in choosing a board in which one would ride on the street with. Actually, one may find it challenging while attempting to flip and shove it choosing a 10” board. In that case, if an individual chose an 8.25” board the individual may find doing such tricks easier. Thus, a selection of boards can determine what style of skateboarding an individual participates in, coupled with, this individual choice of

Skateboarding is the act of riding and performing tricks using a skateboard. A person who skateboards is most often referred to as a skateboarder, or colloquially within the skateboarding community, a skater. Skateboarding can be a recreational activity, a job, or a method of transportation. Skateboarding has been shaped and influenced by many skateboarders throughout the years. Skateboarding is relatively modern.

Skateboarding has been around since 1944. Initially, created as a crate with wheels and a bar used as a handle bar, the idea was slowly being more refined. Woman’s Army Corps Betty Magnuson, reported seeing French children riding on wooden boards with rollerblade wheels attached to them which would imply that the idea has been played around with but never capitalized upon. From crate boxes with handle bars, to popsicle shaped boards with specialty made wheels backed with a massive culture, skateboarding has become a popular industry.

Originally made for surfers, the board was meant to act as a surfboard riding waves, but for pavement. In the 1960’s companies began to mass-produce these boards due to the spike in popularity. Some of the more earlier surf skaters were; Mark Richards, Bruce Logan, Torger Johnson, and Dannel Bearer (Skateboarding History). The first trick called the “Kick tail” which was established during the 1970’s as well as Urethane wheels, which provided more traction, speed, and displayed innovation (Skateboarding History). In continuation, skate parks, pros, skate magazines, and movies arose in quantity. In the 1980’s more style of skating was introduced, street style. Like the great awakening, skaters began to build their own ramps and rails to skate. The trend topic for attire was the infamous baggy pants, shirts, and retro shoes. Skateboarding finally hit exposure when they attended the first X Games. This rejuvenated skating from an underground sport to a spectator sport. The skaters who attended the X Games also get paid money that ranges from 1,000 to 10,000 a month (Skateboarding History,). These now so called “Pros” received their possessions based on wins, talent, placement in competition, and the quantity of contest they participate

Which locations impressed you the most and why? The locations that impressed me the most are the abandoned wave pool and the storage warehouse. They impressed me because it's place that I wouldn't imagine doing sport there. There's

The argument is flawed for numerous reasons. Primarily, the argument is based on an unwarranted assumption that increase in skateboarding is the only reason for decrease in number of shoppers over past two years in Central Plaza. In the argument, it is mentioned that many store owners believe that skateboarding is the reason, but there is no certain number or percentage of how many people believe is provided for this assumption. This would have been a more compelling reason if the numbers are provided like say all business owners or 98 out of 100 etc. An approriate survey should have been carried out to understand why there is decrease in number of customers, what percentage of owners believe skateboarding is the reason and what are the factors

As a Professional Tennis Coach I want my students to be the best they can be in tennis, i use that mentality to try their hardest in everything they do. I also want to create future tennis pro’s, by training them everyday they can develop their game to get at least a college scholarship.

Some would say it's like snowboarding, whereas others would say it's like skateboarding. I, on the other hand, believe surfing is unlike any other sport. Besides it being loads of fun and freeing your mind, it is also a great workout. Problem is, though, many people wonder how to get started and learn what to do. That's where I come in.
