How to Build a Skateboard Ramp...You might need a crane. This book is a father and son memoir of building skateboard ramps and skateparks in Hawaii and California. My 15 year old son and I attended the Santa Barbara, California premiere of a skateboarding movie, The Search for Animal Chin, May 5, 1987. We saw the movie and moved right into it, joining the professional skateboarding world of Powell-Peralta. The book chronicles the evolution of our ramp-building, culminating in the construction of Powell's SkateZone skatepark at the company factory in 1990, and the fabulous SkateStreet skatepark in Ventura, 1997.This book's not about the stars of the skateboard world but they're in it; it's more about the behind-the-scenes players like myself and Johnny and all the characters we worked and played with over the years, building skateboard ramps and skateparks. I've got thousands of photographs from those years and I'm in the process of creating a free website as a companion to the book. It will take me months to complete it, but in the meantime, the partially completed site is up and running. www.antigravitydevicecompany.com
