About the Skateboarder

A skateboarder is someone who does tricks and stunts on a board with four wheels – it’s like surfing on land!

Skateboarders need to be super good at balancing, using their muscles, and knowing the best places to skate.

They might practice in special skate parks or even in empty swimming pools!

Some skateboarders are so good that they become famous and inspire others to try skateboarding.

Skateboarding is a really fun way to express yourself and be creative, and you get to show off your cool moves to your friends!
