Pubity on Instagram: "😭 Skateboarding was invented in the late 1940s to early 1950s in California, when surfers began attaching roller skate wheels to wooden planks so they could mimic surfing on land during days with no waves, a practice known as “sidewalk surfing.” The activity quickly grew beyond its surf roots, leading to the first mass-produced skateboards in the late 1950s and the emergence of skateboarding as its own distinct sport and culture.
