Cruising the streets of Seminyak after skating at @eaglebasesk8park and @raceamplitudetoday in Canggu. So much fun!!

So where is Canggu?  I had to look it up – it’s a village in Bali, Indonesia.

I also looked up where she’d been skating and was happy to see there’s lots of support for girls.

All around the world more girls skate when they see girls having fun skating and encourage each other.  Hope you share your skate adventures soon.

Be sure to check out Hailey and her friends – below some shots of Hailey at Ballina, New South Wales – Australia and a group shot before the event.

One of the places Indiana aka @indi_banana_jam traveled to in 2017 was Encinitas, California for EXPOSURE Skate. That’s

All around the world more girls skate when they see girls having fun skating and find friends to skate with.

And what’s your must have for skating?  Emily is “serious” about her shoes!

GD Rock2Fakie (progression). Nothing in life comes easy, you gotta work for it. Took at least 80 tries before I got it. Being 47 and having HIV doesn’t stop me from shit. Never give up!

I love when girls share the process because when you look at a picture or video, you might think why can’t I just go out and do that.  However, when you read it took multiple tries and different approaches, you realize you can do that, it’s just going to take work.

Jennifer shares inspiration on her skateboarding journey and her life journey.

Jennifer is a teacher, surfer, skater and single mom of three children. Since being diagnosed with HIV and AIDS, she made the decision to share her story so others can be informed and not afraid.

The original link I was going to share got messed up and to be honest my system for tracking down girls when the link I intend to write about gets lost is not great. I’m thankful that I found Jennifer and can write this post because I’m in awe of her courage.

Jennifer says and truly lives by “Never Give Up”.

What if I don’t get practice runs in?  Is a terrifying question to have to answer.  You want to do your best and it’s logical to think that you’ll do best with practice.  However, sometimes things don’t go how you planned or wished them to be.

I absolutely love how Aurora answered the question – she went out there and had fun skating.

2018 is a brand new year of challenges, I hope we’re all able to face them with the style and courage that Aurora showed us in 2017.

Thanks @grom.mom for sharing and encouraging Aurora & so many other girls to keep it stylish through perseverance & choosing to be positive!
