The first skateboards were made out of wooden boxes or boards attached to skate wheels - the first skateboarders ripped the wheels out of roller skates and placed them on the bottom of the wooden boxes/boards to ride them.

Skateboarding was invented a long time ago. The first trick probably recorded was the ollie. The ollie is when you "jump" on your skateboard. You can ollie over things and add new twists to it.

I don't know if this is the first "trick" or not but when I was a kid the only skateboards available were the ones we made ourselves. We would take the metal wheels off of roller skates and bolt them on to a small piece of plywood or some other board. The only trick anybody could do was what we called a "wheelie" where you put one foot on the very back (behind the rear wheels) and press down with that foot while slightly lifting the front foot so the front wheels would lift off the ground and the skateboard was rolling only on the back wheels. We used to have contests to see who could do the longest wheelie. After awhile some guys got pretty good at spinning around in circles while doing a wheelie. ==Hmmm...== As I recall, the first skateboard trick I learned was how to just stand up on it without falling off!
