Skate?

Ever wonder how and when skateboarding started?

Skateboarding was invented in the 1950's by some surfers that didn't have any waves to ride so they decided to make boards with wheels so that they can ride on the concrete. After the waves came back, some skaters still rode their skateboards and others went back to surfing. All of the skateboards where home made so they weren't as popular but still very popular. People started to see how much people liked these skateboards and they started to make companies that will sell them things for their skateboards because most skateboard parts were hard to find. This gave skateboards a really big boost in popularity.
