Enthusiasts who want something less conventional than traditional skateboarding might look into two other related sports: street luge and dirtboarding. This book explores these two offshoots of skating that have much in common with the winter sports luge and snowboarding, while also highlighting these sports unique attractions. Street luge gives riders the speed they may not get from regular skating, while dirtboarding enthusiasts like being able to skate on uneven terrain year-round, with or without snow. From safety and equipment to beginner lessons and beyond, this book is a valuable resource for skaters looking to go off the beaten path
