In the late 1970s and early 1980s, skateboarding was almost dead. At this time, the title ‘professional skateboarder’ was little more than a formality, and not very many pro’s could make a living through the sport alone. Not surprisingly, all contests, demonstrations, videos, and companies were underground, and far from mainstream. Magazines throughout the 1970s and early 1980s were dominated by vert skating and to a lesser extent freestyle skateboarding. Here are some ads from the golden age of skateboarding.
