“Efficiency wants to make the world available: controllable, plannable, predictable. Skateboarding works differently. You cannot plan it however you like, force it, or optimize it reliably. Sometimes the trick works, sometimes it does not. Sometimes the world answers – and sometimes it gives you a shinner. That is exactly the point. Skateboarding does not guarantee status, safe progression, or return without risk. But when it answers, it answers personally. Not as a number. Not as a ranking. As a real experience.” Really enjoyed the new Bubble article by Dr. Veith Kilberth (former pro, sports sociologist, and co-owner of a skatepark planning firm), which intelligently unpacks the reasons for a decreased amount of young skaters today.
Jake Todd and the good people at Nocturnal Skateshop put out a new Jackson Deets part full of Philly crust, and cameos from many familiar Philly faces.
