Contributing photographers include Jim Goodrich, Lance Smith, Bruce Walker, James Cassimus, Al Porterfield, Hunter Joslin, and many others. — — — — — “Everyone thinks they know the skateboarding’s history but what they really know is a series of half-facts compounded by hype and amnesia. This book will rewrite skateboarding history as we know it.”— Betsy Gordon, curator of Ramp It Up, Smithsonian Institution “[A Secret History of the Ollie] sheds a very bright light on a revolutionary time in skateboarding.”— THRASHER”Nothing like this has ever been published before.”— Michael Brooke, CONCRETE WAVE “Craig Snyder’s work is much more than a secret history of the Ollie. It is a first-rate account of skateboarding based largely on Snyder’s extensive research in boarding magazines and his myriad interviews with groundbreaking skaters, the audiences who studied them, and the photographers who immortalized them. Set against the backdrop of the sun-drenched coastal towns of Southern California and South Florida of the 1970s, this book transports readers to the era in which the acrobatics of today’s X Games were born.”— H. Michael Gelfand, James Madison University “Your [book] is a wonderful history textbook on 70’s skateboarding unequaled and will stand the test of time.”— Larry Balma, publisher of Transworld Skateboarding (1983-1996) and co-founder of Tracker Trucks “A Secret History of the Ollie is a massive book packed full of details, histories, anecdotes, photographs and miscellanea about 1970s skateboarding—not just California, but also Florida, other US states and the international scene. Snyder obsessively details exactly who did what, when, and where. It is amazing detective work, and at over 900 full-colour pages, a great value.”— Iain Borden, author of Skateboarding, Space and the City “If you think you need 900! pages of 1970s-to-early 80s skate history that shows that a raging world existed outside of Southern California, then make some room for this thang.”— Bill Daniel, Texas filmmaker, artist, photographer, and skater
