Check out this killer French site devoted to skateboarding called, appropriately enough, Skate Site. It features a whole bargeload of photos and reviews on skate books, skate magazines, skate movies, skate music and a portfolio of high-quality skate photography. And it even has English translations in many areas! Sweet stuff.
