- Abstract
- This book delves into the vibrant world of skateboarding in Kazakhstan — a subculture born on the streets and shaped by creativity, resilience, and community. It explores the stories of skaters, their challenges, and triumphs, from the first boards and DIY skate parks to the unique culture that emerged despite limited resources. Through interviews, memories, and reflections, this book reveals how skateboarding became more than a sport: a way of life, a symbol of freedom, and a testament to the power of movement and self-expression.
