Concept for: Australian Skateboarding Book
David Pang 11Aug2005 Proposal: To create the definitive coffee table book on skateboarding in Australia, with a key principle to be unbiased toward any sector of skateboarding and coverage (individual, company, location, photographer, writer etc). Vertical, street will be the majority of the focus but other areas (luge, slalom, cross country, speed etc) will not be overlooked. My concept is to implement this publication in a co-operative manner in which all contributors accept the risk in this publication, but if the final product is the quality and success that I hope it will be, we will have all agreed on the percentage contribution that we have all made towards this product and we will share the fruits of the publications success (once a profit has been realised). The baseline- standard I am aiming for is:
• Indy’s Built to grind; http://www.independenttrucks.com/book/index.htm • Disposable- skate deck history; http://disposablethebook.com/ • Legend, Dog Town and the Z boys;
http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/0964191644/ref=sib_dp_pt/102-4349672-5424160#reader-page
• Media and personalities (clippings and stories) for each era and state!
