What is the main objective of this experience for the 4 guys? The main objective for these guys is to go on a trip to do skateboard with persons that share the same passion. They also want to learn different skateboarding style from friends who come from different cities and improve their skills. Which locations impressed you the most and why? The locations that impressed me the most is the ones with the waterslides and the sort of garage. At the waterslides location, they had nothing to do tricks, but they took tables and stairs to jump over with the help of a bungee. And at the garage, they took things that were already there and made jumps and slides with that. They put something that was very high to jump over it, but it was so high that it took them several tries before succeeding. Which one did you like the least and why? The one I liked the least is the one where they jump …show more content…
It is different because our sport is different. They don’t need a coach like me to practice or to learn new tricks. They can learn from each other new styles. They can upgrade their skills by themselves by just watching and practicing. In tennis, it is just not possible. How do you regard skateboarding? I found it is a very nice sport because it takes a lot of coordination of the feet, which is very difficult, and you have to be very clever to keep your balance. There also are always new tricks to learn that are not easy. I have great admiration for those who have managed to become big stars in the world of skateboarding because there are so many to practise this sport and it is hard to climb among the best. What is your opinion about the athletes represented in this movie? I think that they are great athletes. It’s not the same as in tennis though. Our sports are very different. I think that they are very brave because it takes them several tries to succeed and become good with new tricks. They fall a lot and sometimes they can be injured very
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.
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.
Skateboarding is different from snowboarding because on a skateboard you can be on flat land and on hills. On a skateboard you also have the ability to jump off the board or do tricks where your feet come off the board. A skateboard also gives you the ability to ride during any time of the year and you can skate inside or outside at skate parks or at home or on the road anywhere plus skateboards are smaller. Skateboards
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.
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
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
What is the main objective of this experience for the 4 guys? The main objective of this experience is to see the approaches that they are going to take in different spots, different terrains. They are different skaters, from different environment and to be place all in one place, opens their minds to different possibilities. It pushes you harder, gets you away from your comfort zone. It's challenging but when you face those challenges and overcome them, you become not only a better skater, but also a better person.
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
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
Playing tennis is a challenging sport that not everyone can play. It not only uses physical strength, but it involves mental strength. You have to be able to push through whatever obstacles there are. In order to play tennis, you have to be able to withstand the heat of the sun, losing, and negative people around yelling at you to do better even if that is the bet you can do.
First you will need a skateboard. The best place to start is at your local skate shop, or a big skate store like Zoomies. It's a lot better if you go to your local skate shop because it's better to help out local shops. At most skate shops, they have full complete boards that will run you around 80-100 dollars, and they are setup for beginners. You can also buy the parts yourself. It will cost the same, but there are more customisations you can do. You never want to go to Walmart, Target or Kmart to get a skateboard, because they are made out of cheap woods, plastic wheels
