Skateboarding started in California, USA! Some peeps think it was basically a surfboard on wheels. Surf's up!
Skateboards are built by gluing several layers of thin wood together. It makes them super strong, but not too heavy.
Originally, skateboard wheels were made of clay! That'd be a bumpy ride.
Skate parks have sprung up all over the world, but the first one was in Florida, USA. Creative skaters can skate on pretty much anything though, even stairs!
There are some crazy skate-moves out there! Add these terms to your vocab: 'nose' = front of the board, 'tail' = back of the board.
Tony Hawk is prob the most famous skateboarder out there. He's even got his own line of skate shoes in the USA!
For a while, skateboarding was banned in Norway, cos some peeps thought that they led to waaay too many injuries. Put a helmet on, yo.
Like snowboarding, skateboards have a natural stance AKA right foot forward is called 'goofy' stance, and left is 'regular'.
