Here's some pics of slalom skateboard racing. One from 1978 and two more recent. I haven't been on a skateboard in a few years after pulverizing my shoulder in a race at Hood River Oregon.
I did a bit of skateboarding back in the mid-60s. But I recently was sent a screen grab photo from even earlier times. I have two older brothers and they did a lot of backyard engineering with toys and such and they used me as a test subject/victim with some of their experiments.
This is me approx. age 5 testing a franken-board in 1958 or 59. The photo was taken at a US Navy Base in Morocco where our dad was stationed at the time. View attachment 102963
