2008 Plans for Sk8 Dad

Posted on Dec 18, 2007 under News |

Since this site is so brand new I have a lot of plans for getting the site up and established in 2008.

1. Own the "Blogging Dads That Skateboard" - I think I am the only one so that should be easy!

2. Post at least one video tutorial a month - I am planning on having how tos for trick tips and building skate ramps etc.

3. Post at least once every other day - Once a day is going to be a bit of a stretch for me.

4. Interview Tony Hawk, Chris Miller, and Steve Caballero - All dads that skate.

5. Get a better theme - This is a placeholder for "learn how to customize a WP theme.

    Came across this via the PB writing project. Just wanted to say that I think this is an awesome idea! Since becoming a parent, though I no longer skate, it seems that there’s a stigma attached to the sport, fashion, lifestyle - however you wanna assign it. There’s so few public-eye skaters who are also parents. Kudos!

    Thanks Terra! I should easily rule the Dad’s that skate niche! ;-)

    I’m not a dad–nor do I have the potential to be one, since I’m a woman. But I have always wanted to learn how to skate. I’m now thinking that I have to set up my blogging goals for 2008. Thanks for the inspiration!

    Hey Sk8 dad! I’m a sk8 dad myself, and ran across this site while looking for other sk8 dad’s on the internet. I skated for many years between the 80’s and 90’s, but stopped when I got married. My kids are old enough to skate now, so I bought a board and started skating again. Don’t know why I ever stopped!
    I hope your 2008 plans are working out. Looking forward to hearing more in your blog.

    Dana

    Hey - great idea! There are a lot of dads out there that used to skate, or want to learn with their kids. Including me. Never skated as a kid, started with my son.

    Good luck with your site, Cole
