I love these photographs by Bill Eppridge of kids learning to skate in New York in 1965, when the skateboard was a new fad and exciting export from the West Coast.
Oh god, I love these photos. I went to a photography exhibition in the meat packing district of NY a few years ago and there were some similar, endorphin soaring action shots (only taken a lot more recently and with a significant lack of females.) Particularly love the young girl being chased by the super masculine van, her intricate patterned jacket and unspoiled ringlets.

Oh wow, these are really great. I love that people aren't all posed and the photos aren't predictable.
I've never been a good skater, I'm ashamed to say.

These pictures are perfect - totally capture the excitement (and in some cases confusion) of the arrival of skating haha. Love pictures like this!
