This is Vanessa on her Pacific Tribe Skateboard.  I say hurray for companies like Pacific Tribe Skateboards who show real girls skateboarding. Vanessa looks like a model and maybe she is – what I know for sure is she can skate.

I hope this blog is showing there are skater girls around the world and that being a skater girl isn’t just a look, it’s about living an attitude of balance and confidence.
