總結:This study argues that skateboarding is a contemporary form of ‘subjective-life embodied spirituality’, a fusing of two theoretical frameworks. This theoretical framework is discussed along with specific aspects of skateboarding fitting into this framework. These spiritual aspects include subjective risk-taking, emotional processing, and connecting with an urban environment. This article discusses and describes these aspects and considers what skateboarding as ‘subjective-life embodied spirituality’ might contribute to the field of religion and sport. Methodologically, skateboarders were interviewed and surveyed to discover which aspects of skateboarding are the most meaningful for skaters in the greater Phoenix area in Arizona, USA.
