Skateboarding etiquette for youth workers

25/2/2013

 
The world of the skatepark can be a daunting and baffling place for many of us; one person who works with youth at skateparks is trying to demystify what she calls ‘these largely unsupervised environments’ and decode the unwritten rules that govern them.

Jemima Key runs skateboarding, BMX, parcour and scooter competitions and workshops for young people through Big Air School. She has brought together some of her observations on skatepark culture into a useful article for those who work with young people in outdoor environments.

To read the article about skateparks, go to: http://bigairschool.com.au/youth-service-provider-resources/ To find out more about Big Air School, which was founded in early 2012, go to: http://bigairschool.com.au/
