Description
In this week-long course, students will learn how skateboarding evolved from a group of kids careening down a hill on a plank of wood with transplanted roller skate wheels to the many sophisticated and technologically advanced styles of skateboarding that exist today. They will also examine the components of a skateboard and discuss the math and physics behind what makes a skateboard so fun. Finally, each student will build and custom-design their very own long board to take home after the course is over.
