Flex Appeal: The Changing Face of '70s Skateboard Culture - Hardcover

by Stefan Ytterborn (Author)

Flex Appeal is a deep dive into the most volatile period of the sport: the 1970s California skateboard explosion. Fueled by rapid innovation and the shift from flex decks to stiff vert machines, this golden era is captured through the story of Fibreflex, one of its defining brands.

Anchored by Stefan Ytterborn's collection of boards from 1975 to 1979, and enriched by the photography of Jörgen Brennicke and the creative direction of David Gonzalez, the book reveals how a single brand and its boards helped reshape performance, identity, and youth culture.
