A
skateboard is a board (called a "deck") with four wheels put on under it. It is used to go skateboarding. The first skateboards were a piece of wood with roller skates attached to it. This became popular and by 1960,
skateboards were made in production. As more
skateboard were made,
more people liked the new sport. However, it was dangerous and people
started to fall off. As a result, skateboard parks started to close
down. With less places to skate, skateboarders had no where to go. A
small group of skateboarders carried on skateboarding in the street and
around cities. After 20 years, the sport began to grow into what we know
now. Skateboarding is a popular sport. Young people sometimes
skateboard on the street.
