5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for grommits!, August 4, 1998
By A Customer
I gave this book to my ten year old nephew who indicated he could understand most of the content. He said, "I've worked out I'm a goofy foot by sliding on the kitchen floor!" The typeface is slightly enlarged for the younger reader and the book has an uncomplicated layout. It has 50 pages and 38 colour photographs. As well as instruction techniques there is an overview of equipment, what to wear, safety tips, and some of the culture which has become an integral part of this leisure activity. This book was stolen from Sydney City Library after only a short period in circulation.
