International Women’s Day is here, and it feels like a beautiful moment to pause and celebrate the girls and women who are changing skateboarding with courage, heart, and determination.
It is incredible to see girls like
@maya.borba ,
@blabriela , and
@_meaganguy featured in a recent story by
@nbcsandiego , filmed at
@lvlupusa_ in Vista, California.
“I love it because now there is a lot more girls. The skateboarding community is really nice, and it is a really fun sport.” - Maya ❤️
Those words carry a quiet kind of hope. Not long ago, many girls arrived at skateparks and saw very few others like them. Today, that is changing. Every girl who drops in, every girl who tries again after a fall, every girl who cheers for another girl is helping reshape what skateboarding looks like.
And it is beautiful to watch.
We are deeply grateful for the people and organizations that have helped make this possible.
Thank you
@skaterising for opening the door and showing skateboarding to so many new girls, giving them the confidence to step on a board for the very first time.
Thank you
@exposureskate for lifting women’s skateboarding higher and higher, proving that girls belong at every level of the sport.
Because of efforts like these, a new generation of girls is growing up believing something powerful:
That they belong.
That they are strong.
That they can try, fall, get back up, and fly.
Happy Women’s Day to every girl and every woman who keeps pushing forward and inspiring the next generation. 🛹💜
