An exhibition showcasing the evolution of skateboard design is coming to London’s Design Museum in October.

This exhibition will map the design evolution of the skateboard from the 1950s to today. It will showcase innovative skateboards and components, alongside skate photography and video, complete with original soundtracks. It will track how skateboarders have taken over sidewalks, swimming pools and skate parks designing new boards to suit their performance, style and surroundings.

It’s when I discover events like this that I miss living in London the most.
