The Skatepark Project (TSP), a nonprofit founded by Tony Hawk, is collaborating with Lily, the Development Director, to increase access to outdoor recreation through the creation of community skatep arks. They are planning a design contest for skateboard artwork, with the winning designs to be printed on 300 skateboards and given away to children who cannot afford one.

<@162709914966294528> Love this Prop. We would like to build on this idea for our upcoming proposal over at gnarsDAO, maybe we Can we get some skateboard designs you made from this Prop. We want to get decks to give out over gnarsDAO. --Long term Would also love to Partner with the Skateboard project to build skateparks across Europe, Middle East and Africa in general! Can you be available to chat about this prop??
Yes, you can get some skateboard designs from the Prop, as Oni#1111 mentioned they gave away their first batch of boards in NYC and will be donating a few more to different locations. They also mentioned that there are no concrete plans for selling the boards at the moment, but they will update the group if that changes. Oni#1111 is available to chat about the proposal and has added you to discuss further.

At the moment we’re making designs for Nouns DAO to vote on, and then the winners will be manufactured. --Which one of the decks caught your eye?

can we get some info about the design part - ideally a template?
There isn't a template available yet, but Oni#1111 mentioned that they are waiting to hear back on the required file format and resolution. They have also asked if there's a template they could provide. In the meantime, you can use the Figma mockup and PSD Skateboard Mockup shared by Oni#1111:--Figma mockup: https://www.figma.com/file/1SueiEwr15NPnLvf8FmgtB/Nouns-Skate-Decks?node-id=0%3A1--PSD Skateboard Mockup: https://unblast.com/free-classic-skateboard-mockup-psd/

can we post suggested noun influenced elements or designs for the skatepark project ?
Yes, you can post suggested noun influenced elements or designs for the skatepark project. The conversation shows that the community is open to ideas and designs, and they are even considering manufacturing and giving away nouns-themed skate decks.

does someone want to step up and take the lead on manufacturing? i would suggest an initial target of 100 decks in 3 different areas of the US. the lead would source and supervise production and distribution, and likely also write the proposal to the DAO. in addition to executing a payment to cover the costs of manufacturing, the proposal could also send a small payment to the project lead to pay for their time co-ordinating the effort
kokoko#3667 has volunteered to take the lead on manufacturing, source and supervise production and distribution, and write the proposal to the DAO. They are located in Colorado and have mentioned the possibility of creating custom grip tape at a local shop.

don’t worry, i’ll make sure to personally get plenty of footage of the Nounish team 🎥

Do we want to put any parameters of the content for the deck designs/art? I assume the subject matter should be Nouns based

Gonna throw this idea out there, since my understanding was that the decks from Skatepark.org are intended to be given to under-privileged kids, but if people here want to buy custom Nouns decks for themselves, NounsTown.shop is already set up for this and ready to produce. --I def don't want to overstep, though, so if this is an area best left to Skatepark.org (i.e. are they already planning to market the decks for sale?), we'd rather that they be the beneficiary of any funds related to skatedeck sales. --If they're not planning to sell Nouns decks, and the community here wants us to print and sell decks, we're happy to step up and we'd love to share the profits with Skatepark.org.--Any thoughts?

Hey <@!813421644298321961>! Have you considered partnering Nouns with an existing organization such as skatepark.org, or do you want to do this 100% from 0 -> 1.
The question was whether Nouns has considered partnering with an existing organization like skatepark.org or if they want to start from scratch. 4156#9052 responded that they are very open to partnering and have recently followed skatepark.org on Twitter, planning to look for an introduction soon.

Hey <#900411018730160131> crew! Founder of DIVERTsessions here… We design, develop and manage skateparks and action sports parks in underserved areas as a platform for social impact and change. Sounds like that might be inline with what we’ve got going on in here… you can check out our parks on our insta @divertsessions or website www.DIVERTsessions.com. Would love to help get this projected designed and built wherever the support is needed!

Hi! I met The Holy One in NYC, he told me about Nouns working on this project and I'm super down to help however I can. I feel like there's a huge opportunity to support youth and solve some issues in skateboarding through NFTs. Looks like you've got a great path forward with The Skatepark Project, please let me know if there's anything we can do at USA Skateboarding to help advance the cause

i really like the gif, but maybe just make it skateboard only? (no nouns logo etc. so that it doesn't feel so corporate)

Is there anything we need to do aside from what we’ve already done? Can’t seem to find where else to upload final assets (or if there’s a need).
Yes, if you've submitted files on Twitter or in the channel, you're all set. The organizers are still waiting to hear from the manufacturer on the exact file specifications for printing, and they will follow up with the winners to get print-friendly assets. The deadline for submissions is approximately one week from the conversation.

just catching up on all the awesome designs. whats the latest on this design contest? would love to figure out how to allow the designs to be minted as well for fundraiser not just physical decks. maybe partnering with the folks at https://sk8verse.xyz they teased they are working on a way for anyone to design and sell their own digital boards https://twitter.com/sk8verse/status/1457782694847213574?s=20
The latest update on the design contest and potential partnership with Sk8verse is not directly addressed in the conversation. However, there are updates on the collaboration with Skatepark.org. They are working on a proposal to produce and distribute 300 noun-themed decks in Southern California, and there's a possibility of revitalizing a skatepark and distributing the decks to the community simultaneously. The proposal is expected to be shared on discourse in 1-2 weeks. No answer located regarding minting designs for a fundraiser or partnering with Sk8verse.

This is an awesome proposal! was there any discussion about potentially selling Nouns boards to generate proceeds that would fund TSP as well? I think they've done this in the past, but not sure if it's something they're still interested in. If not, NounsTown.shop would be happy to do this and donate the proceeds to the project.
There was a discussion about placing extra orders for the DAO but not about ecommerce specifically. The Skatepark Project mentioned they can put things in their shop, and they would also be happy if NounsTown.shop wanted to sell the items and donate the proceeds to the project.

This is so cool! Is this a first initiative (giveaway)? Will there be more? Would be dope if we can create and donate decks to events.

This is whats been in my head since I heard this idea: a graphic and brightly coloured space that reflects the feeling of the nouns characters. Standing out in the urban environment. Could the skatepark be in the shape of a noun from above? Functional sections created in each colour block? Could nouns have a kind of signature look like this for real world projects even? Makes for a hell of an aerial shot too 😝
