Description

Over time, science and technology have played their part in making skateboarding a high-tech sport. Modern skateboards and the ramps on which the skaters ride are built with the latest materials and construction techniques. The skaters themselves rely on science to keep their bodies in top shape. They use the laws of physics to pull off the most amazing tricks. This volume explores these developments and how they make skateboarding one of the most exhilarating sports.
