Sound is a primary issue in the lives of skateboarders, study shows

86% Informative
Sound plays a significant and often poignant part of skateboarders' relationship with their sport.
Skateboarders use sound to verify the success of their maneuvers, judge the veracity and capacity of surfaces for use and as a social cue.
For some, the sensory overload of skateboarding is therapeutic and it helps them connect with others skating nearby.
But the research also shows there is a "skatesound paradox".
