Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 3-6-Three introductions to non-team athletic activities that have been dubbed "extreme." Each book gives a brief history of the sport, advice on selecting equipment, safety, basic skills, and competition. The books are eye-catching and easy to read, and the full-color photographs on every page feature teens and young adults. The sidebars are filled with helpful tips and explanations of inside lingo. Shelley Youngblut's Way Inside ESPN's X Games (Hyperion, 1998) is a thorough examination of extreme sports for older readers.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Average Book,
This review is from: Wakeboarding!: Throw a Tantrum (The Extreme Sports Collection) (Library Binding)
When I bought this book, I looked read it and looked at all the tricks and everything else, but it did not appeal to me as "Wakeboarding... On the Edge" did. Sure it's a good book, but I wanted much better. I do not reccomend this to wakeboarders that want to get better. Look somewhere else... sorry. :-(
3.0 out of 5 stars
Not bad for a children's book.,
This review is from: Wakeboarding!: Throw a Tantrum (The Extreme Sports Collection) (Library Binding)
Compared to the other juvenile literature on wakeboarding I have read at the library, this is probably the one of the more informative ones. For kids around 10 years of age, this may be a good introductory book. This book may be too basic for adults and they could probably get more information from somewhere else.(I also looked at Extreme Wakeboarding and Wakeboarding : Technqiues and Tricks). I also found Techniques and Tricks a good children's book, but I wouldn't recommend Extreme Wakeboarding for kids are who are trying learn how to wakeboard.

This review is from: Wakeboarding!: Throw a Tantrum (The Extreme Sports Collection) (Library Binding)
I have to say this book was worth reading. It also gave some interesting ideas for me to think about. I would recommend it to anyone looking for something to read but don't waste your last 15 dollars.
