Meet the outstanding, courageous men and women of skateboarding
from the birth of the sport to the present. Starting in California
in the 1960s and evolving to the first national Street Competition
in Philadelphia in 2001, this sport has grown, gone into exile, and
come out at skateparks across the country. The daring people who
live the fun and push the bounds of speed, vertical takeoffs, and
stunts are featured here, through hundreds of color photographs and
first-hand accounts. Each of the 38 skateboarders are discussed in
detail, including such legends as Atilla Aszodi, Don Hamilton, and
Bob Turner. Their stories inspire respect; their awesome courage
and dedication helped create a whole new sport, which now draws
thousands to discover the thrill of flight.
