Skateboarding appeals to individuals of all ages. Whether you are a teenager looking for an adrenaline rush or an adult looking for a creative outlet, the interest of skateboarding is inarguable. More recently, it has been gaining rapid popularity among an even younger audience, with children as young as three or four years old picking up a board and hitting the skatepark. This sudden boom in skateboarding popularity among young people has altered the landscape of what we will see is possible in the future of skateboarding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first extremely young skater that made waves on social media is named Rita Ishizuka. Rita has been skating since he could walk. He first gained popularity on Instagram when he was just three years old, and continues to impress his followers today at the age of seven. Rita\u2019s incredible rate of progression illustrates the evolving face of skateboarding, where age is no longer a limiting factor but a demonstration of skateboarding’s inclusive nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
