The Sk8 School owner and coach Shayne Robinson explains that skateboarding can be a great outlet for children during the coronavirus lockdown. “It’s a safe form of exercise as it’s a non-contact sport,” Robinson states. “Children can get out of the house and improve their overall fitness, physical endurance, balance, co-ordination and flexibility. Skateboarding is also a lot of fun which is what kids need during this stressful time.”
