SuitabookSkateboarding skills

- Reading
- Browse the trick names together, then pause over an action sequence and describe what changes from one step to the next. Let the rider choose a section of interest.
- Themes
- Learning tricks step by step: The book presents fundamental techniques and a selection of flips, grinds and slides, using action sequences to show moves step by step. Its structure treats skateboarding as a set of techniques to learn and practise, rather than presenting a story or argument about the sport.
- Worth knowing
- The photographs show riders wearing helmets. If your child plans to try the techniques, you could use this as a prompt to talk about protective equipment and practice.
