The first skate contest took place in 1973 in Hermosa Beach, California, sponsored by Makaha and held at the Pier Avenue Junior High School. In April 26 & 27, 1975, The Zephyr Boys impress the crowd at the Bahne-Cadillac National Championships held as part of the Del Mar Ocean Festival.
Currently, the four skateboard categories include vert, street, big air, and SuperPark. Several other popular skateboarding competitions are the World Cup of Skateboarding and the Vans Triple Crown. The World Cup takes place at different cities around the globe throughout the year.
even before our ancestor are really adventure they love on exploring things , the love to discover new things, as this game was in the field or they play it even before, i am safely to sway that is something they really enjoyed that they bring out to the competition
There are two different skateboarding competitions for men and women at the Olympics: park and street. Park features skateboarding in what is known as a skate park, where the bowl shape allows competitors to gain momentum on the nearly vertical sides to perform tricks while airbound.
The skateboarder moves by pushing with one foot while the other foot remains balanced on the board, or by pumping one's legs in structures such as a bowl or half pipe. A skateboard can also be used by simply standing on the deck while on a downward slope and allowing gravity to propel the board and rider. If the rider's leading foot is their right foot,????????? they are said to ride "goofy".if the rider's leading foot is their left foot, they are said to ride "regular." If the rider is normally regular but chooses to ride goofy (or vice versa), they are said to be riding in "switch". A skater is typically more comfortable pushing with their back foot; choosing to push with the front foot is commonly referred to as riding "mongo", and has negative connotations of style and effectiveness in the skateboarding community.
