==History== Though skateboards emerged in the 1900s, skateboarding tricks like the ones done today did not appear until decades later. In the 1970s and earlier, the most common tricks were "2D" freestyle types such as manuals and pivots. Only later in the 1980s and early 1990s were common modern-day tricks like the [[Ollie (skateboarding)|ollie]] and [[heel-flip]] invented by [[Alan Gelfand]] and [[Rodney Mullen]], setting the stage for other aerial tricks. The invention of these tricks changed the skateboarding lifestyle for many years to come.<ref>{{cite web|last=Florez|first=Alex|title=History of Skateboarding Tricks|url=http://shredditapp.com/2015/02/01/historyofskateboarding/|publisher=Shreddit|access-date=6 March 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160306235425/http://shredditapp.com/2015/02/01/historyofskateboarding/|archive-date=6 March 2016|url-status=dead}}</ref>
