 On 22nd January,2007,Dave Cornthwaite from the UK became the first person to skateboard across Australia. He made a new world record,by skating a total of 5 ,823 kilometers. Jack Smith,the previous (前任的) champion,had skated a total of 4 ,830 kilometers across the US in 2003. Dave's journey started in Perth and ended in Brisbane traveling about 60 kilometers a day. It took him five months and 13 pfii:s of shoes. He had great physical pain and he got really sore feet.

This journey had plenty of challenges. He travelled across the Australian desert (沙漠) where temperatures reached 48°C in the day and 0°C at night. He had a serious accident in Adelaide when he jumped on a piece of metal that cut through his foot.
