Great Book

Skateboarding by Howard ReiserSkateboarding is a good book for anyone who wants to learn about the past of skateboarding. Since this book was written in the 70's, it provides a good look at what skateboarding used to be.It introduces skateboarding, and tells you how it came to be. It includes finding the right wheel size for your skateboard, and determining what deck is the best size for you. In later chapters, you will learn how to perform cool tricks, the language of skateboarding, learn about different pros, and parks and camps where you can learn to skate. I really liked this book, and I would recommend it to anyone who likes skateboarding. It really proves that anyone can learn to ride a skateboard.
