SKATING CONTENT GUIDE
Create better skating content. Help more people find the sport.
Practical guidance for skaters, coaches, parents and performers who want to share skating clearly, honestly and consistently.
Free to use. Open to everyone. No specialist equipment required.
START WITH WHAT YOU KNOW
Choose the role you already have.
You do not need to invent a creator identity. Start with your real experience inside skating.
Coach
Share knowledge, corrections, exercises and the lessons experience has taught you.
Parent
Document the journey and help other families understand the sport.
Performer
Show people where skating can lead and what life around performance looks like.
WHAT TO CREATE
Useful content starts with a useful subject.
Choose one subject at a time. You do not need to explain your entire skating life in every post.
Progress
Show what you are learning, what improved and what still needs work.
Setbacks
Share the difficult parts that are usually hidden from the finished result.
Technique
Explain one correction, exercise, element or skating principle.
Questions
Answer the things skaters, parents and beginners repeatedly ask.
Ice and inline
Compare the experience clearly without pretending the two surfaces are identical.
Equipment
Show setup, use, maintenance and what you have learned through experience.
Training spaces
Show where you practice and how you use the space available to you.
Life around skating
Share competitions, shows, travel, coaching and the people behind the sport.
FIVE CONTENT RULES
Make the message easier to understand.
-
01
One piece. One purpose.
Decide what the viewer should understand before you begin filming or writing.
-
02
Show movement first.
Let people see skating before asking them to read or listen to a long introduction.
-
03
Show the important part clearly.
Choose the angle, distance and moment that make the skill easy to read.
-
04
Edit less than you think.
Remove wasted time, but do not bury the skating under effects and transitions.
-
05
Stop trying to look perfect.
Real progress, honest explanation and useful experience are more valuable than polish.
WRITING
Write like a person. Teach one thing.
Start with the answer
Do not make people work through a long introduction before reaching the useful point.
Write the way you speak
Use clear sentences and familiar language. Remove anything you would never say aloud.
Teach one thing
A narrow lesson is easier to understand, remember and share.
Tell the truth
Do not create urgency, certainty or results that your experience cannot support.
SPEAK CLEARLY
Use language people can learn from.
Clear terminology helps skaters understand the sport and prevents useful information becoming vague marketing.
