Sporting equipment on which to perform a nollie or kickflip (10)

I believe the answer is:

skateboard

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'sporting equipment' is the definition.
'skateboard' can be an answer for 'equipment' (skateboard is a kind of equipment). I am not sure about the 'sporting' bit.

'on which to perform a nollie or kickflip' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'on' could be 'at' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'at' is located in the answer.
'a' is found in the answer.
'or' is within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for skateboard that I've seen before include "Youth transport" , "go on deck" , "Young person's wheeled transport" , "Means of travel on rollers" , "Transporter used for hot dog" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
