Excellent- More about Surfing, Street Skateboarding, Performance, and Space: On Board Motility
Surfing, street skateboarding, performance, and space are explored in On Board Motility, which develops a theoretical perspective of board motility that is gestural and fluid. It combines critical cultural studies, political philosophy, postcolonial studies, urban sociology, and poststructuralist theory to investigate why we move the way we do and how movements communicate. Through performance, the author narrows the divide between verbal and nonverbal thinking, outlining and embodying an ontological and epistemological stoke that emerges from riding boards.

Surfing, street skateboarding, performance, and space: on board motility is a groundbreaking work that draws from a wide range of disciplines, including critical cultural studies, political philosophy, postcolonial studies, urban sociology, and poststructuralist theory. It explores the complex relationship between human communication and performance, and constructs an epistemology of riding boards. The book delves into the reasons behind our movements and examines how movements communicate, leading to the development of a theoretical perspective on board motility that is gestural, fluid, and responsive to changing social and physical landscapes.
By combining the discourses and practices of critical theory and physical movement, the text presents a sustained analysis of radical political philosophy. It deconstructs the symbolic narratives associated with each physical practice, establishing their theoretical counterparts. Through performance, the author bridges the gap between verbal and nonverbal forms of thinking, outlining and embodying an ontological and epistemological stoke that emerges from riding boards, both on waves and in streets.
This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of culture, politics, and physical movement, as it offers a fresh and innovative perspective on the world. Its interdisciplinary approach and rigorous analysis make it a valuable contribution to the field of performance studies and beyond.
