The art of skateboarding.
Skateboarding teaches you something new every day and improves your body control, balance, dexterity, patience and endurance. You also gain coordination and stamina. You should also show your skateboard a certain amount of respect, otherwise it will control you and you will end up on the ground sooner than you would like. Whether it's falls caused by stones, carelessness or failed tricks. This can and will happen to you every day on your skateboard, whether you're a professional or a beginner. So you always have to get up and try again. If you adopt this attitude, it will be of great benefit to you in the rest of your life. Fall, disappointment, get up, carry on.
Whether from 3 to 70 years,
No matter whether you are male or female: Skateboarding knows no age or gender, it can be learned by anyone. Of course, it is easier to learn when you are young, but even older people can make impressive progress. Skateboarding will always challenge you and you can never stop learning it. There are too many opportunities for that.
Whether you want to do freestyle, streetstyle, mini ramp, bowl halfpipe, slalom, cruising, longboarding or downhill, whether you want to use skateboarding as a game, as a means of transport, as a sports equipment, as an amateur or professional, it will always be a challenge. Skateboarding is also an excellent sport for making new acquaintances and friends. In all the skate parks, which can now be found in every major city almost worldwide, you will find like-minded people who you can easily get to know through skateboarding. Let's hop on and roll it!
There are so many different skateboards and over the years, skateboards have developed quite a bit. From 70s skateboards, wooden or plastic boards with small axles and mostly plastic wheels, to highly developed skateboards from BMW. So there is a lot of technology in today's skateboards. But we'll stick with the "normal skateboards". Longboards / cruiser boards with very easy-to-steer axles and soft wheels for comfortable gliding on the asphalt. Or the old-school boards to collect. These boards were the hottest boards in the 80s, especially for the halfpipe and bowls. Freestyle skateboards, the original form of skateboarding, have been very popular again in recent years. For flatland skateboarders who want to learn lots of complicated tricks on flat ground. The skateboards for skate parks, city architecture, etc. These 7.5" to 8.5" wide skateboards with lots of different graphics are the most popular and best-selling skateboards. It is also a good idea for the many skate parks that now exist. To ride these with the boards, with tricks, jumps, grinds, etc. and for the little kids who want to become real skateboarders, there are the right skateboards. Divided into child-friendly sizes.
