Above skaterrosie she’s been skateboarding since the early 90’s and is living/skateboarding in Vancouver.  She captioned the photo

Cheers to everyone that supports the girls skateboard community! When I started skateboarding it wasn’t cool, guys looked at me weird and I was called a skid. 20+ years later I am still pushing around and man does it feel good! photo @corywils

I love that skaterrosie also shares skateboarding.  If you’re in Canada and can make it on April 30, 2016 it looks like a rad event.  And I’m hoping she shares some photos with the blog.

I’m glad skaterrosie kept skateboarding because it’s girls like her that make it easier for girls to skateboard today.

Happy Valentine’s Day to everyone & shout out to my IG friend lilyboardc who inspired me to find out so much more about Canada.

Plus she made time in November to skate at EXPOSURE in Encinitas, CA – one of the world’s largest girls skateboarding events and

exp

Poseiden Foundation Ladies Day at the Berrics in LA, CA.

So the question is never is Annie skateboarding it’s where is Annie skateboarding?  Everywhere she skates she inspires more girls to skateboard – if you’ve been inspired by Annie let us know!

Skateboarding in China Town – Canada

Screen shot 2016-02-10 at 8.35.10 AM

Skateboarding should absolutely be FUN.  That’s why I love this picture of devan.711 skateboarding in China Town.   Her smile completes her style.

The more I blog about Canadian skater girls the more I found out about Toronto and I’m just wondering why I haven’t been there yet.  Fashion, Monday night girl skate sessions, skating downtown by the CN Tower and now China Town – maybe I should just move there.

Get Your Feet off the Table

Screen shot 2016-02-09 at 9.33.10 AM

Mothers everywhere  yell “Get your feet off the table!”  Technically it’s not Hannah_sk8 feet on the table it’s her skateboard – so it’s ok.

Hannah_sk8 is in Montreal so you can’t always skate outdoors – however her YouTube has both indoor and outdoor videos all of them amazing.

Happy Fat Tuesday – yes in my research of Canada I read that Montreal has been called the New Orleans of the North.  Like I tell my mom this blog is educational!
