Riding Street Courses

Book excerpt: As skateboarding has grown in popularity, the venues built specifically for skating have grown in number, too. Much like earlier generations built baseball fields and basketball courts, modern-day municipalities and other entities are building skate parks. In this book, readers will discover how there has rarely been as good an era to skate street courses and obstacles at local parks, which provide the challenge and variety skaters used to only be able to find on the streets. This book provides safety and equipment guidelines, and gives step-by-step instructions for popular tricks, like ollies, grinds, manuals, flips, slides, and more.
