Women’s Skateboarding

Even when I’m not on a shoot doing styling, I’m am usually at an event that has to do with either sports or fashion in some way shape or form. Last weekend it was the Exposure Skate event which drew girls in from all over the world to compete for $20,00 in prize money. My action sports/lifestyle brand, Girl is NOT a 4 Letter Word was there as a sponsor and I was on hand all day to see just how far women’s skateboarding has progressed form back when I was a pro skater. Glad to say it has grown leaps and bounds – over 50 girls of all ages competed on Saturday and a free skate clinic that was held in the morning for beginning skaters, drew over 60 participants. Simply amazing to be part of this inspiring event!
