Skateboarding is an action sport that can only be considered an XDGE sport when it involves extreme and breathtaking action on vertical ramps and downhill speed-riding tricks.  As with all XDGE sports, no participant should undertake any activity for which they are not properly trained and equipped!  Otherwise, it is not a sport, but plain stupidity.    Skateboarding started in California, sometime around 1950, by surfers with nothing to do when there were no waves to ride.  Today it is an Olympic sport.
