My name is April Jones, a filmmaker and skateboarder, and like many of us, I was shaped by places like Burnside. Skateboarding didn’t just give me an outlet; it gave me a language, a community and a unique way of seeing the world.
Not everyone is given equal access to language.
Through My Board
@throughmyboard , is a feature documentary film centered on a deaf skateboarder, Paul Johnson
@oldirtydeaf and his evolution at the world famous Burnside Skatepark.
The film challenges the assumptions about communication, participation, and inclusion. It pushes beyond visibility. It doesn’t just tell a story, it opens a door for deaf skateboarders, for deaf youth, and for the next generation.
