Explanation of this puzzle

In a video my explanation of this puzzle:

What is skateboarding in the bowl?

Bowl skateboarding refers to skateboarding in a bowl-shaped structure that resembles an empty swimming pool. A bowl consists of rounded walls and corners without sharp edges, allowing skaters to ride inside it and transition between walls without stopping. This type of skateboarding emphasizes fluid movement, speed, and performing tricks such as grinds, airs, and carves.

What are some skateboarding techniques?

In bowl skateboarding, skaters use the slopes and curves of the bowl to gain momentum. They can ride up the sides and perform tricks when they reach the edge of the bowl, such as doing airs or spinning the board. This type of skateboarding is often associated with “vert” (vertical) skateboarding, where skaters climb vertical walls and perform tricks at great heights.

Bowl skateboarding as a discipline within skateboarding

Bowl skateboarding is a popular discipline within skateboarding, especially in skate parks that have specially designed bowls or pools. It requires balance, speed and control, and is popular with skateboarders who like to experiment with smooth transitions and tricks at higher speeds.

About Jumbo puzzles

Jumbo (not to be confused with our supermarket Jumbo!) makes toys, games and puzzles. Jumbo, for example, has made the very well-known games such as “Human don't get annoyed” and “Stratego” and “PimPamPet”. Games that have been around for generations and are still widely played by both young and old. Jumbo has been making and developing toys since about 1900. In the early years of the company, only toys from other countries were imported to the Netherlands. However, since about 1930 it was decided to also make their own toys, at the time manufacturing wooden toys, which was very popular at the time. Almost all toys in those years were made of wood. An important spearhead was that the toys made by Jumbo had to be of very good quality; it had to be as strong as an Elephant. An elephant had to stand on it! The red elephant has been the hallmark of Jumbo's games and puzzles for years. The name Jumbo and the red elephant together form the logo from about 1935. The Jumbo elephant is drawn by Mr. Möhr. He worked at an advertising agency and regularly signed for Hausemann & Hötte. Mr Möhr was at one point commissioned to design a beautiful new elephant logo for the Hausemann & Hötte toys. The logo has changed a bit since then. For example, the eye has grown over the years and has dropped slightly more, resulting in a friendlier elephant.

In the past, the elephant was not only used in the color red, but in all kinds of colors such as blue, yellow, black, white and green. All those colors were cozy and playful. For example, one time there was a yellow elephant on the box and the other time a red one. It was usually looked at which color best matched the color of the box. It was not until the end of the 60s that the red elephant was definitively chosen. Red is a color that stands out and attracts attention.

From 1945 Jumbo also started to focus on games made of cardboard. Jumbo has therefore been a guarantee for strong quality for years! Jumbo is a unique Dutch company with a rich history, with its head office in Zaandam. About 130 employees work for Jumbo. With a turnover of €75 million, Jumbo is a medium-sized European player in toys. Jumbo has sales offices in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and the United Kingdom. They export to more than 25 countries around the world.

In 1980 Jumbo starts the production of Jan van Haasteren Puzzles.
