Just how many girls were there in Seattle? From Tara (Arbor Girls) group shots we see a tons of girls participated during the weekend.
Where did these girls come from?
Above skaterrosie shows us Vancouver – British Columbia – Canada.
From Moniz – I see the Minna came from Northern California, Emma also from California and from Florida Meagan.
Kendra made it to Seattle from Texas and got 3rd in intermediate.
Amanda made it where she met & made new homies – Michigan GRO Crew.
Ali originally from Canada made it and shares this collage. She tagged them all so you know they came and likely have more pictures of the fun.
Jewls, Kim, Courtney – who’s birthday was just yesterday 5/9, Christiana, Ali herself, Kat, Minna – row 2 Ali with Pamela, ok these next ones are in the tie dye and on the lawn – Meagan, Ariana, Josinah, Hayley bio says Australia, Breana, Savannah, Una, and Kristin then row 3 Annie, Ellen, Emma, Fabiana, and Sarah
There are also videos of the adventures along the way like this one from Cassie who was traveling with her fellow Silly Girls including Brittney and Brenna.
If you have pictures you want to add to the post just let me know – more girls do skateboard when they see girls skateboarding and we encourage each other.
If you didn’t make it this year – there’s next year May 5 – 7, 2017. And don’t forget to check out the films/trailers presented at Mahfia TV’s Girlz Nite Out/Wheels of Fortune Welcome Party @dayslikethesefilm @girlskateindia + sneak peak of #quityourdayjobvid!
Till next time keep it stylish on & off the board.
