Since 2009 photographer Nikki Toole has been making photographic portraits of skateboarders around the world. The seventy black and white portaits in the book include professional and amateur skateboarders from the United States, England, Australia, Germany, Czech Republic, and Italy. The unique focus of this art project is an exploration of the mindset, the culture and the sense of self identity of being a skater--no matter what age or nationality the subjects are. Each skater stands facing the camera while calling to mind the mental zone they found while skating.
