Creating access to a sport with high barrier to entry
Skateboarding has always had a difficult and slow learning curve for beginners. That's where SITE's skate lessons come in. We have developed and built interchangeable skate ramp pieces to assist with learning different tricks. This infrastructure combined with our coaching staff means quicker progression than students would otherwise find.
Skateboarding has historically been a rebel sport and learned from peers rather than from coaches. With it's entry into the Olympics that mindset is starting to change. SITE's skate lessons work to break down the difficult barriers that often hold skaters back while still keeping the strong skate culture integrated.
