One of the very first longboards! A piece of history! Of the era whereby skateboarding was marketed as a means to learn how to surf “sidewalk surfboard”. 35″ L x 5.75″W. Has a cool logo of a guy on surfboard. It’s in fair-good condition: it has just enough wear to give it street cred, but is still legible. History of early wooden longboards with metal wheels, often known as “sidewalk surfboards” in the late 1950s and early 1960s. The Origins of Skateboarding: The “Sidewalk Surfboard” Era (1950s-early 1960s). ???? Roots in Surf Culture. Skateboarding began in California in the 1950s, invented by surfers looking for a way to “surf” when the ocean was flat. The earliest boards were homemade, using wooden planks and attaching metal roller skate wheels to the bottom. These makeshift boards were nicknamed “sidewalk surfboards” to emphasize the connection to surfing. Decks : Flat, solid wood-usually rectangular or slightly rounded, sometimes shaped like small surfboards. Wheels : Steel or cast metal wheels taken from roller skates. These offered little to no grip, a very rough ride, and could easily lock up on small debris. Trucks : Often scavenged or rudimentary, lacking the responsiveness of modern skate hardware. Early skateboarding gained national attention when Life Magazine published photos of sidewalk surfing in the early 1960s. Local competitions and skate demonstrations boosted visibility. Safety issues due to steel wheels and lack of control led to numerous accidents. By 1965, the first skateboarding craze had started to fade, partly because of injuries and negative press. In 1963-64, clay composite wheels started replacing steel. In 1973, urethane wheels were introduced by Frank Nasworthy (Cadillac Wheels), completely transforming the sport.

A piece of Americana! Made in Philadelphia (Philly) Pennsylvania! An early wooden skateboard with metal wheels that was there to witness the entire birth of the industry! Just enough patina (and wear) to attest it’s been around the block but nice and bright to display. 21.5″L x 5.5″ W to 4.25″ W (tapered) and 3.5″ T. Skateboarding was initially marketed to surfers as a cheaper/easier way to practice surfing aka “sidewalk surfing”.. Blinged out matching, red, hub caps! Imagine writing these gnarly, little, metal wheels, down a steep paved hill in California! However, before skateboards there were scooters, sometimes known as kick scooters and push scooters. Varied forms of scooters have been traced back to the early 1900s, most of them made from wood, metal, or a combination of the two. Scooters had anywhere from two to four wheels. Some of the wheels were metal and others were similar to the wheels on pedal cars. In the 1940s and 1950s, crate scooters made popular sidewalk vehicles. Most crate scooters were handmade. They were relatively inexpensive and simple for kids to construct by using a milk crate or wooden fruit box and metal roller skate wheels attached to a wooden 2 x 4. Eventually kids started removing the boxes and handlebars and just started riding the board with wheels, reminiscent of the famous skateboard scene in the 1985 film. Back to the Future. Trade sheet, about 1960, from The Stephen and. Diane Olin Toy Catalog Collection, The Strong, Rochester. By the early 1960s, skateboarding started luring participants from the surfer scene. In 1962 a southern California surf shop, Val Surf, began making its own brand of skateboards and struck a deal with Chicago Roller Skate Company for the wheels. The skateboards began to attract everyday surfers who could use the boards when they weren’t in the water, and thus the term “sidewalk surfer” was coined. Additionally, skateboarding gained popularity when Larry Stevenson, publisher of. Promoted it in his monthly magazine. In 1963, Stevenson made the first professional skateboards using the Makaha brand and organized the first known skateboarding contest. That same year saw an evolution in skateboard design with the use of clay (also known as composite) wheels that replaced treacherous metal ones. Moving ahead, in 1964 surf and sailing entrepreneur Hobart “Hobie” Alter joined forces with Vita-Pakt company to make a line of Hobie skateboards; the Hobie line also sponsored several contests and professional skaters.
