The trick is what the board is doing, but the style is what the body is doing. Skateboarding may have a reputation for gnarly falls and broken wrists, but once your body gets acquainted with the board, it's so much more. It's a cardio workout, a test in patience and perseverance, and an inclusive sport you can do all across the city. Once this video teaches you to ollie, the world is your oyster. That's skateboarding, and this is Your Body On Sport.
Thanks to @SKATEYOGI for hosting us at their Williamsburg location.
