What is "vertical skateboarding"?
Vertical skateboarding, or vert skateboarding, is a style of skateboarding performed on large ramps or half-pipes, where skaters use the curved surfaces to gain speed and launch into the air. Skaters perform spins, flips, and grabs while reaching great heights before landing back on the ramp. Unlike street skateboarding, which focuses on obstacles like stairs and rails, vert skateboarding emphasizes smooth transitions and aerial tricks. It requires balance, control, and precise timing to execute moves safely. This style is featured in major competitions and is known for its high-energy performances and impressive stunts.
