The Skateboard Life: Movers, Shakers, Makers & Rulebreakers: The Quintessential Story of Skateboard Culture

A highly-visual celebration and cultural overview of skateboarding through more than 60 profiles of the biggest names in the sport.

Skateboarding is about movement. Movement of the body. Movement of thought. A movement toward better days. A movement to turn strangers into friends and family across the globe. Through 65 dynamic, strikingly photographed profiles of skaters,  The Skateboard Life reveals and revels in how skateboarding--still (bizarrely) against the law in so many places--has permeated and elevated our global culture, influencing media, art, fashion, music, sports, business, and education. Covering the legends, the innovators, the activists, the Olympians--the best of the best--it is a celebration that's as energetically engaging and highly visual as the world it centers.
