Research topic: skating - Arman




In todays day and age skating is a major sport for millions of people around the globe.  The world of skating has given birth to many famous people such as Tony Hawk who is an inspiration or many skaters out there an even considered the father of skating.  However in todays day and age new inventions such s electronic skateboards are surfacing up and taking over the industry slowly, could this be the end of old school skating and the rise of a more technological way in the sport?

Here are some questions I would ask local skaters in a public interview:

1) Has skating changed your way of life? If so, how?

2) Do you believe technology is taking over the skating world? if so why?

3)How did you feel when the Southbank skatepark was at risk of closure?


We would then interview Steve Douglas, a former British skating pro who is now the VP of Dwindle Distribution(worlds largest skateboard company situated in the US).  Asking him about how he feel skateboarding has had a positive impact on the youth and how it keeps them occupied and away from crime drugs, and how skating as a whole has had a good impact on the economy as a whole.
