So yeah, discuss skate boarding and it's brands.
I like Element skateboards and am quite a pro skater except i'm stuff at tricks.
Here are a few pictures:
Facts:
The skateboard was invented fourty plus years ago, in the year 1965!
More than half of all the people living in the United States who are skateboarders currently live in California.
Just in the United States alone, there are more than 300 skateboarding parks, with more being constructed everyday! People are starting to realize that skateboarding is a great activity for kids to be involved in, and that it provides an excellent source of physical exercise, which many of us are severely lacking in!
One of the most famous skateboarding tricks, the 900, was first successfully completed by famous skater Tony Hawk.
Out of all of the sports played around the world today, skateboarding has been ranked number 6, in terms of number of participants and popularity.
There are National Skateboarding Championships held each and every year, with the first one being held in 1965, the very same year that skateboard was created and put on the market for sale!
It is estimated that close to 100,000 people require medical treatment each year due to skateboarding injuries, many caused by skateboarders not wearing the proper protective equipment!
If you suffer from an injury while skateboarding, your wrist will most likely be the injured body part, according to current studies. Even skilled skateboarders suffer from wrist injuries, usually due to falls caused by debris on the skating surface.
When shopping for a skateboard, you need to pay attention to the weight rating of the board. If you weigh more than the suggested weight, you are more likely to fall when using this board.
It is important knowing the type of protective equipment you have, to make certain it is approved for skateboarding, as not all protective gear will provide adequate protection. As time goes on, a good skater will inspect his or her gear for cracks or tears, and replace it as needed.
