From kids attaching wooden planks to skate wheels as early as the 1900s; to the multi-million dollar industry that it is today, skateboarding has proven its longevity.

You probably own a couple of items in your house that is an off-shoot, or if not directly, at the very least references the skateboarding culture. How has something so simple and uncomplicated as attaching a board to a couple of wheels become so…omnipotent?
