How to Train Your Skateboard: An Illustrated Guide to the Freestyling Street Sport

How to Train Your Skateboard is the only book of its kind--an illustrated guide to skills and tricks that's practical, stylish, and effortlessly cool.

The Tokyo Olympics saw freestyle skateboarding arrive with a bang, as young competitors from all over the world astonished us with their skill, energy, and camaraderie. Their dramatic contests also showed everyone what skateboarders already knew: that even the most spectacular routines draw from a small repertoire of moves like the Ollie, the Shuv-it, and the Kick Flip.

This is the first book to break down 13 key tricks into clear step-by-step instructions, with Ewa Zak's specially commissioned, full-color illustrations making them easy to follow and a joy to look at. With Jack Francis's expert guidance, you'll soon be skateboarding like a boss.
