Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books
about the hidden lives of ordinary things. How did the skateboard
go from a menacing fad to an Olympic sport? Writer and skateboarder
Jonathan Russell Clark answers this question by going straight to
the sources: the skaters, photographers, commentators, and industry
insiders who made such an unlikely rise to worldwide juggernaut
possible. Skateboarders are their own historians, which means the
real history of skating exists not in archives or texts but in a
hodgepodge of random and iconic videos, tattered photographs, and,
mostly, in the blurry memories of the people who lived through it
all. From California beaches to Tokyo 2020, the skateboard has
outlasted its critics to form a global community of creativity,
camaraderie, and unceasing progression. Object Lessons is published
in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.
