I received this book in the form of an ebook, as I was asked if I could have a look at my neighbours skateboard. I admit that before reading this book, I knew nothing about skateboards, so when I was asked to look at my neighbours, I was a bit wary. This book not only guided me through all the things I should know, but with detailed guidance, I was able to accomplish the things I didn't know. I was suprised with all the theory, as I believed that a skateboard was simply a board with wheels. I now know different, as a properly built and maintained skateboard is a precision tool. many thanks for an easy to follow guide.

This book is right up my son's alley. He knows from a user's point of view how accurate this book is at covering all the many ways a skateboard must be fixed and maintained. He has even learned some new tips about the mechanics of them, and that's not easy for any teenager to admit (since they already know everything). My son assures me that this guide should be standard equipment for every skateboard owner. And he knows what he's talking about!
