Gender Issues in Skateboarding EP02a

The Life-Sized City Urbanism Podcast - A podcast by Mikael Colville-Andersen

Categories:

Now called The Life-Sized City podcast. The massive gender challenges facing skateboarding are mirrored in many other cultures and sports. How can skateboarding - a traditionally male-dominated culture - diversify to include a strong female presence? What are the hurdles and what would the benefits be? This short, unplugged episode is an extended addendum to the previous episode about skateboard urbanism. I interview Gustav Svanborg Edén - skateboarding coordinator for the City of Malmö. Music by Phil Creamer.
