Our Mission

To create awareness and community involvement in keeping skateparks clean and maintained worldwide.  

THE WHY

As skaters, we love the amazing gifts of skateparks everywhere. We didn't have them growing up so seeing more and more pop up across the country is an incredible gift to skating. We skate a lot and have seen the positive benefits of skateparks within a community and have seen skateparks close when they are run down and abused. The Broken Windows Theory by James Q. Wilson and James Kelling states that serious crime and disorder are the result of a lengthier chain of events. The theory posits that a broken window, if left broken, sends a message that disorder is acceptable causing more broken windows, more crime, more disorder. Disorder causes crime, and crime causes further disorder and crime. Fixing the broken window sends a message that it is not acceptable and that someone cares and takes ownership of the issue. This relates to skateparks as we have seen parks close due to trash, graffiti, crime, and misuse. These issues require more maintenance by the cities and community and often fuel the negative stereotypes associated with skating. We saw a need for the community to take ownership and for the skating community to be responsible for the longevity of the skateparks and to minimize the negative impact on the cities. This dedication to improving the world around us includes skate spots we enjoy. Some areas don’t have skateparks or have skate spots that require maintenance or DIY creativity. The skateboarding community can bring about positive change together. We believe the opposite of the Broken Windows Theory is also true. One positive action can lead to another. Positive momentum is contagious.
