[edit] Skateboarding

Wheelchair skateboarding is a fast growing area of disabled sports. Athletes such as Tyler Dieth and Aaron Fotheringham and Darwin Holmes have brought the sport to international attention and many young disabled people are picking up on it. While there is an article on Aaron in Wiki, there is nothing about wheelchair skateboarding. I would like to propose that there is a mention here in disabled sports about it, with links to skateboarding and to some well known participants.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 195.222.71.194 (talk • contribs) 14:43, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

I'll add it under other sports; it isn't part of the official Paralympic movement yet. This is a very general article with no specific detail on any sports or athletes; that information should go in an article on the sport. I think it's a good candidate for an article, but I haven't got the knowledge to write it. Perhaps you could create an account and make the page yourself? - Eron ^Talk 23:54, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

I dont mind writing the article, but I really haven't got the time to learn the wiki do's and don'ts. I know it can be very strict. I suggest that I write an article and when ready, I will leave you a note here and we can communicate further by email for editing. Let me know if you agree.
