Not a skater, but, I am a "nerd". It's because you push OFF of the skateboard. It's hard to explain, but go to YouTube, and watch how their feet are angled, and which way the board goes. It will make better sense. Easier to show than tell. Never seen anyone jump off a skateboard and NOT have it go the other way, if you do, Good Job, because I hang out with a lot of really good skaters!

What energy transformation happens during a skateboard jump?

During a skateboard jump, the skater's potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as they push off the ground and gain speed. As the skater leaves the ground, some of the kinetic energy is transferred into potential energy due to the increase in height. Finally, when the skater lands, the potential energy is converted back into kinetic energy.
