Introduction of Mark Guerrero and a New Symbol for Skateboarding

[LitleGu at AOL.COM]

Hi All, 
My name is Mark Guerrero, I am 23 years old, and live in California, USA.  I 
have come across the Sutton Movement  notation method due to my interest in 
skateboarding.  I have been skateboarding for the past  19 years of my life and 
have recently wanted to use a notation method to capture  skateboarding moves 
and tricks.  In  my search for such a method, I found Sutton Movement 
notation. 
Over the past couple of months, Valerie and I have been talking about  
creating a way to capture the movement of a skateboard.  For the past two weeks, I 
have been  creating a skateboard symbol(s).  I  emailed Valerie what I have 
come up with so far and would be more than happy to  share it with all of you. 
So far, my ability to use the notation method to capture  a person’s body 
movement is quite  poor.  But I will get better!  So far, I have read one of 
Valerie’s  first books, “Sutton Movement Shorthand – Book One: Classical Ballet”
.  Even though I understand the basics of  the method, I lack the know-how on 
how to capture the complexities of a person’s  body as they perform a 
skateboarding trick L.  If anyone  knows how I can learn how to capture the movement 
of a person’s body, that would  be much appreciated!   
Well, it has been great introducing me to everyone and I  look forward to 
potentially meeting some of you J  . 
Thanks! 
Mark
