Recommendations for a new user group in wheelchair sport

published in sb 5/2023

The building of skate parks is booming. There is obviously a growing need for urban spaces in youth culture that provide infrastructure for such exercise practices as skateboarding, BMX, inline skating, stunt scooters and, for some years now, WCMX. In his guest article, Dr Veith Kilberth gives us a preview of an ­academic publication on the inclusion of wheelchair skating in skate parks, due to be published in 2024. It can also be seen as a call to municipalities to take action.
