:template: project
:summary-sentence: Skateboarders can perform complex tricks and maneuvers.
Firstly, we are interested in figuring out how the skaters'
manipulate and control the board and their body using
optimal control methods. Secondly, we want to design the
board and environment to maximize performance and safety.
