Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Adult/High School–This book is composed mainly of photographs and step-by-step instructions for performing 35 ramp tricks. Goodfellow opens with a brief history of the sport, beginning with the Dogtown crew surfers of Santa Monica, CA, in the 1970s, and concluding with Danny Way's 2005 jump of the Great Wall of China. He also provides thumbnail biographies of the sport's various superstars. The text is generally accessible, although such terms as ollie and fakie are used without specific definitions. Yamaoda's black-and-white photos are clear and illustrative of successive positions. Although the riders pictured do not wear helmets or pads, there is a disclaimer encouraging readers to follow safety procedures and wear safety equipment at all times. A table of contents lists individual tricks; the index provides page numbers for tricks as well as skateboarders. A comprehensive list of resources, from books and magazines to camps, museums, public skate parks, Web sites, and videos, is included. An instructive and inspirational how-to and reference.–Sondra VanderPloeg, Tracy Memorial Library, New London, NH

Product Description

Ramp tricks—skate moves made on, over, or around wood ramps, cement bowls, and half-pipes—are a key, albeit challenging, component of skateboarding. Hundreds of captioned, sequential photographs demonstrate precisely how these exacting moves are safely made in this indispensable guide to 40 ramp tricks. Beginning with basic moves, including stalls, grinds, and slides, skaters gradually learn the particular positioning and balance needed to perform more advanced tricks such as flips and airs. A brief history of ramp skateboarding examines the birth of the genre as well as champions of the sport, including the pioneering Dogtown Crew and current stars Bob Burnquist and Tony Hawk.
