Skateboarding

Irregular surfaces cause the most skate falls.

yes. in jackass wee man dresses up as one and goes skating.

You can skateboard anytime except in the winter if you live in an area with a lot of snow but if you don't then skate all year round. Obviously Its best to skate in Summer because its hot but I actually prefer Spring or Fall because the weather is cool and its just right.

No they are very heavy and not that great for grinding.

I assume you mean who invented the device. Like a lot of things it evolved, in a sense from roller skates and (skooters) made from soap boxes with handlebars on front and having roller skate (trucks) fore and aft. There is some evidence that Amelia Earhart and her sister made a sort of improvised toboggan ride- that might have had commercial possibilities as a fold-away carnival ride of the slide or toboggan type with cars using roller-skate chassis in part. a modern replica of this device- a display and not a (ride) is on display, courtesy of a local shop class, at the Atcheson , KS Amelia Earhart birthplace museum. It is going to far to give Amelia credit as the inventor as the device was actually a bobsled-like gravity ride, but there are similarities.

because your probably leaning to forward or flicking you board behind you.. think about it

yes it does

He has many but is most known for the 900. As he was the first to do it in competition and he can still do them to this day even at the age he is at.

There are many big name stores that sell skateboards. Look into several of them to determine the quality, brand, and size that is appropriate for the child before deciding on which one to choose. One may also talk to others who have a skateboard to find out how, where, and why they purchased theirs.

Beginers should start on just kicking and getting used to riding smoothly. Then you should work your way to turning and small ramps. And eventually dropping in!

umm... well i think the air or dlx

On a ripstik you put one foot on the tinier end. Than you push 3 times with the other foot. After 3 pushes you put you're other foot on. Than you twist or wiggle the ripstik. And there you go you're riding!! Ripstiks take alot of practice but before you know it you'll be a pro! And I suggest if you are a begginger, you wear helmet/knee pads/arm pads/ etc.

ADDITION BY ANOTHER USER:

While above is described how you use a ribstick, it doesn't address how they work.

Underneath the ribstick the wheels are mounted to a surface that is at an angle, so the wheel is pointed back. The wheel is basically a shopping cart wheel, which means that it rotates around an axis perpendicular to the surface it's mounted to. So it's "steering axis" is angled very far back.

In addition to that, the steering axis doesn't go through the middle of the wheel, so it's offset.

What this means is that if you push a ribstick straight forward, the wheels will naturally steer until they're pointed straight back and the ribstick rolls forward.

When the wheels are straight back, the "ride height" (distance between the ground and the ribstick platform) is smallest because the wheel is as high up as possible - tucked right under the ribstick platform.

Now when you ride the ribstick, you're pushing it side-to-side. What this actually does is steer the wheel and push the ribstick platform off the ground. Then when you stop pushing it to the side, it naturally falls back into going straight. It literally FALLS into place because the ribstick platform (and your weight) goes "downhill" as it lowers and as it goes downhill it also speeds up.

So moving the ribstick side to side keeps the wheel in almost the same spot on the ground, but pushes the ribstick uphill, storing energy in it, then when it slides downhill it speeds up and that pushes you forward.

I hope that makes sense. put your ribstick up on a table, get eye-level with the wheels, and push it back and forth to see what I'm talking about. Then let go of it when it's "up" and watch it fall and go forward.

they cut it with a special machine in factories.

I belive that i have the biggest collection becase i have 456 tech decks and its true!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think you're looking for kinetic energy.

go watch the invisible skateboard section of the video "Yeah Right" by girl

Most of the time a professional that lives near/or in the same state as you. For example, my local skatepark was designed by Brian Aragon, a pro.

dude dcs are awesome skating shoes. hey i use them ahah.
