True World Skate

While skateboarding's spiritual home may be California, True World Skate makes it clear that it is now a global phenomenon, from Palestine to Jakarta and everywhere in between. Whether it's on pavements, in car parks, or on rooftops, there is an interconnected network of skaters, makers, communities, and innovators who have worked hard to grow and evolve skate culture the world over.

Featuring stunning photography, board graphics, and exclusive interviews with coaches, filmmakers, historians and community leaders, each chapter explores a different skate community around the world. From suburban skate parks to active war zones, the ingenuity, independence, and dogged persistence of skaters is beautifully captured in this wide-ranging book.

Coming in somewhere between an art book and a skate magazine, this is a wonderful look at a unique subculture told by the people who understand it best. Perfect for skaters, artists, and creative folks.
