9. Skateboarding in Greece Skateboarding in Greece is not very popular. There are not many skateboarders in Greece. Skateparks (places to skate) are very few. These are examples of the disadvantages which do not help spreading the particular sport in Greece. και τα skate parks κάπου στο 2% όπως φαίνεται στο παρακάτω γράφημα. Generally speaking skateboarding is an expensive sport (Greece, England). Unfortunately in Greece there are not many chances for people to improve their sport and become better. Skateboarding is a sport which requires good body health (and guts!) in order for the athlete to be able to perform difficult tricks, like the ones we showed you in this presentation!
