Taking place at real street locations, this photographic collection
provides readers with the information necessary to take
skateboarding abilities to a higher level of performance.
Progression of style and technique in skateboarding has led to the
cutting-edge use of real-world terrain such as curbs, stairs, and
handrails. Beginning with instruction on how to properly negotiate
curbs and escalating to the endless ways a skateboarder can
maneuver up, over, and down the cement and asphalt that make up the
urban and suburban landscapes, these step-by-step photographs will
help skateboarders master the streets of the world.
Ramp tricks--skate moves made on, over, or around wood ramps,
cement bowls, and half-pipes--are a key, albeit challenging,
component of skateboarding. Hundreds of captioned, sequential
photographs demonstrate precisely how these exacting moves are
safely made in this indispensable guide to 40 ramp tricks.
Beginning with basic moves, including stalls, grinds, and slides,
skaters gradually learn the particular positioning and balance
needed to perform more advanced tricks such as flips and airs. A
brief history of ramp skateboarding examines the birth of the genre
as well as champions of the sport, including the pioneering Dogtown
Crew and current stars Bob Burnquist and Tony Hawk.
