A section devoted to the history of skateboarding is included with an in-depth look at the individuals responsible for the creation of flip tricks and how they came to invent this aspect unique to skateboarding.

Book Description
As skateboarding has grown in popularity, the venues built specifically for skating have grown in number, too. Much like earlier generations built baseball fields and basketball courts, modern-day municipalities and other entities are building skate parks.

This book provides safety and equipment guidelines, and gives step-by-step instructions for popular tricks, like ollies, grinds, manuals, flips, slides, and more.
