Overview

An illustrated, definitive guide to the art of skateboarding - from the streets of 1960s Los Angeles to today's Olympic skateparks.

From the empty pools of 1960s Los Angeles to today's Olympic skateparks, skateboarding has fostered a vibrant street culture that is visually striking yet often misunderstood.

In this definitive illustrated guide, trace the evolution of the skateboarding from the very first boards to a thriving industry defined by iconic brands and distinctive styles. Through never-before-seen photography, and exclusive access to designs from top artists, learn how skateboarding has become a living cultural movement, with dedicated events, exhibitions, and festivals, even attaining Olympic status.

Told through engaging narrative and pivotal excerpts from magazines, music, video games and films, Skate showcases the fearless tricks, defining moments, heroes and technical achievements through decades of transformation.
