YES!!! if u can get a ticket for rollerblading or skateboarding on the sidewalk......
Sidewalk surfing was the name that was originally applied to what we now know as skateboarding.
well skateboarding originated from surfing which is why they where originally called sidewalk surfers. So if anything, skateboarding is a sub-culture of the Californian surfing "idea"
Skateboarding used to be called "sidewalk surfing". it happened when surfers couldnt surf and the put trucks and wheels on the bottom. Soon after "sidewalk surfing" began, people re-dubbed it as "skateboarding" and they changed the board shape and size. Thats why longboards are accepted in the skateboarding community
"Catch A Wave" came first. "Sidewalk Surfin'" was a sort-of parody of it, about skateboarding.
Nobody invented skateboarding as far as i know. I did a report on skateboarding for school and all i came up with is that a bunch of surfers put roller skates onto two-by-fours and called it Sidewalk Surfing around the 1960's.
If its a branch or a crack I would just trick over it. When the sidewalk is uneven, slow down abit.
Cruising down sidewalks in a style called "sidewalk surfing". Basically a little wooden surfboard on wheels
As far as sports go, Skateboarding isn't very old, but nobody knows exactly when the first skateboard was invented. We do know that skateboarding has its roots in surfing. Surfers called it "sidewalk Surfing," but no self-respected surfer took it seriously. They skateboarded to improve their technique, especially when the waves weren't good. As a result, all skateboarding moves mimicked riding waves.
There should not be a ticket issued for riding on the sidewalk according to the LAPD: http://www.lapdonline.org/prevent_crime/content_basic_view/7745 UNLESS, you are riding "in a willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property (56.15.1 LAMC)."
Yes, most definitiely.
People actually think that it was originated in either Hawaii or Southern California for when the tides were low. it was called 'sidewalk Surfing' at the time.
