SIDE WALK SURFING


Surfing had a huge impact on skating, and skateboards got some of their style from surfing. In fact, skateboarding was sometimes called sidewalk surfing. It looks similar to riding a surfboard, but the similarities aren't as strong as they may seem. surfing is restricted to water, but even though skateboarding is restricted to land, anything can become a skaters wave. many skater made objects their personal ocean, a lot of skaters fro other citys were moving to L.A. California was the heart of the skating world. a park bench it was no longer a park bench it was an object that skaters would cross or jump over it, and obsticles were no longer that, but also the potential sources of new tricks, and this is what the cops use now in days to charge a skater, damaging property.
