The first kind of skateboarding. skaters like Tony Alva, Jay Adams, Stacy Peralta and the Z Boys virtually created.
it's often
done on concrete waves, where you can apply the surf style to. early tricks that came with it were called '
bert slides' which is like the surfing move 'snap' (fs or
bs) it's using your hand as a pivot to make a hella quick 180.
then somewhere around 1974-75, they z boys were bored, because the swell didn't come for three days in a row. they found an empty pool, and skated it.
hence, modern skateboarding was born.
-- it's also a shitload more fun than these flatland tricks. adrenaline rushes aplenty.
used with either a surfboard shaped
deck with large
wheels. (pool
wheels, usually 56-62mm) or those sick 80's wide decks.
