"Stakeboard" aka "Skateboard (Uh Ah Ah)" is a 1977 single for German group Copains and also singer Benny Schnier. Both versions made the charts that year.
Overview
[edit]The song Skateboard was written by Hans-Ulrich Weigel, Frank Farian, Stefan Klinkhammer, and Roland Kaiser.[1] Along with "Amigo Charlie Brown" and "Bin wieder frei", "Skateboard" brought Frank Farian considerable success.[2] With the kids being seen riding around on skateboards and being noticed by Roland Kaiser and Frank Farian, an idea for a song came about. It was Kaiser that suggested to Farian that a song should be made about the sport. The idea appealed to Farian and with Kaiser, Fred Jay and Hans-Ulrich Weigel, Farian composed Skateboard.[3] The song appears in the book, Skateboard Music of the 1960s and 1970s.[4]
According to the August - September issue of Trust magazine, issue #95, the song was on a list of "100 greatest singles of all time". It was also available as a phone ringtone.[5]

Kjell Vidars – «Skateboard»
Category:Mariann Grammofon singles
https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kjell_Vidars https://forswingende.blogg.no/1489616929_nostalgi_kjell_vidars.html
Album https://colnect.com/tr/music_records/music_record/6608936-Kjell_Vidars_Skateboard_Ooh-Ah-Ah
Dance band from Hadeland formed in 1970 by Kjell Bjørklund (guitar, vocals) and Ole Vidar Lien (bass, vocals). Other members of the first line-up were Arne Støen (organ, accordion), Øystein Hvalby (drums) and Øyvind Lysenstøen (guitar, vocals). The group made their debut in 1973 with a tribute album to ►Gluntan, where they interpreted 18 well-known songs from this band's repertoire. The album sold more than 25,000 copies, which gave Kjell Vidars the first of many silver record trophies.
Kjell Vidars followed up the same year with a Christmas album, which again had room for 18 songs. Before a year had passed, Kjell Vidars had made his third LP, and this time they had the opportunity to show what they really stood for. The menu was the same as would be used on all subsequent albums; foreign hits with Norwegian lyrics, as well as some songs provided by Norwegian artists. Many of the songs became regulars on the Norwegian charts, where they reached a total of 25 first places, and in January 1977 "Guitar Boogie" became number one on the European charts. The group also managed to achieve some popularity in Sweden, where they were described as "Norway's best-selling dance band".
The line-up was stable until 1979, when Jan Tore Iversen (drums) replaced Øyvind Hvalby. Three years later, Arne Støen and Øyvind Lysenstøen had also left. New members were Terje Eriksen (vocals, keyboards) and Asbjørn Furulund (vocals, guitar). Kjell Vidars was reduced to a quartet in 1984 when Furulund left. However, he returned a few years later, and the album Kjell Vidars går igjen (1992) was made with a line-up consisting of Bjørklund, Lien, Furulund, Iversen and newcomer Øyvind Myhre (vocals, keyboards). Leif Hemmingsen was the producer on the first twelve albums. On the last albums, Ole Vidar Lien took over the role of producer.
During his long career, Kjell Vidars sold more than 600,000 copies of his records. The greatest hits were collected in 2002 on the album Gjenhør med 20 glade år!.
