Synopsis Longboarding by : Mary-Lane Kamberg
From its origins as a land-based alternative to surfing, one that incorporated the wheels and trucks used by skateboarders, longboarding, developed in Hawaii during the 1950s, has come a long way. In the 1970s, when the sport was seen as a form of self-expression, it was more of a do-it-yourself hobby. Today, longboarding is bigger than ever. This book describes the sport’s history, gives riders an idea of how to choose their equipment and begin practicing this unique sport. From mere transportation, to obstacle slaloming, freeriding, dancing, and freestyling, readers will be impressed with the many styles of this ever-changing pastime.

Synopsis Longboarder's Start-Up by : Doug Werner
Design innovations and a new appreciation for the grace and poise of surfing a longer board has lifted the art of longboarding back into the limelight and more importantly, back into the minds of serious surfers who are looking to expand their wave riding experience. The first-half of this guide covers the basics of longboard equipment, wave selection, courtesy, and surfing technique through standing up. The second part gets into intermediate and advanced longboarding skills including: cross-stepping, trimming, turning, turning maneuvers, essential noseriding, and finally, some of the breathtaking tricks that the pros execute so flawlessly. The key points are brought home with a stripped down text and photos featuring some of the best longboard surfers on earth, including Ted Robinson, Colin McPhillips, Jeff Kramer and Mark Stewart.

Synopsis Longboard Skateboarding by : Peter Castellano
In 2012, a skateboarder riding a longboard traveled more than 80 miles (129 km) per hour downhill to break the world record for fastest longboard speed. On the other hand, the longboard skateboard is likely the best skateboard to ride for just getting around via skateboard! Readers are introduced to the many ways of riding a longboard, including in downhill competitions and freeriding. Full-color photographs highlight the fast action of the sport, while the main content encourages caution when beginning a new, daredevil sport. Safety tips and fact boxes add even more detail about this fun emerging sport.
