First Known Skate



Skateboarding was found and played by people around 1940s - 1950s when surfers in California wants to surf on flat waves. They were thinking about that for years and years until they found out boards and wheels. No one knows who made the first board but it seems that several people came up with similar ideas at around the same time. From that day, people try to make one of these things by chopping down some woods and make it to something square and put some wheels on it and try to ride around without falling down to the ground. From that day, people try to modified the boards so it is more easier to ride by putting on some griptape (to make your shoes sticks to the board) and make the board bigger.




This is the new edition of the board. As you can see, there is many things that makes the board look different now a days.
