The 5 Principles of Wizardstyle Skating is the first and only book in the world
dedicated to Wizardstyle skating. This first print, limited edition is the complete
package: a practical training manual, a cultural archive and a lifelong skating companion, all
in one.
The book is built on three foundations: the personal experience of author Bas Bavinck,
insights and contributions from community members and fellow skaters, and market
research including the State of Wizardry Survey. These three perspectives combine to
create a book that reflects not only how Wizardstyle skating is practiced, but also why it
matters.
What sets this book apart is its interactive design. It is filled with exercises, challenges,
models, and tools that encourage skaters to actively engage and learn. Each chapter offers
something to try, test, or reflect on, making the book a resource to return to at every stage of
a skating journey.
Inside, readers will discover:
The Five Principles Framework Core, Gaze, Push, Edge, Tail offering a clear
and structured approach to the basic teachings of Wizardstyle skating.
The Origin, Philosophy & Future of wizard-style skating.
The Core Model for unlocking style, creativity, and personal expression.
Interactive tools: Session Journal, Core Moves Journal, Skater Archetype system,
Progress Checker, and Creative Challenges.
Exercises & practice formats designed for progression.
Practical instructions to apply directly during sessions.
Exclusive interviews and survey insights from across the global skating scene.
Community contributions: Leon Basin, Kallista Chang, Maurice GroBschedl, Ivo
Vegter, Billy Arlew, PopShow & Viktoria Lova Sderholm, Nicola Torelli and Brad
McGowan.
This is not a book to read once and set aside. It is a companion for the entire skating
journey, a resource that grows with the reader, and a first-edition collectors piece in the
history of Wizardstyle skating.
The Five Principles: a fresh, structured approach to Wizardstyle skating.
*The book is still in development and their final product might differ from this design. These
mock-ups give an impression of what the book will look like. Either way, it will be a nicely
designed book! Promise (:heart)
