I loved the style in Teresa Madeline’s picture so I asked her why she likes to skate and why she thinks skateboarding is good for girls.

I like to skate because it gives me an opportunity to express myself.  It has also brought me countless amazing friends from all over the world and it’s great exercise, much more fun than going to the gym.

I also think it gives me a new way to explore places that I visit and see things I never would have seen otherwise.

I think skating is great for girls because it gives you a sense of freedom and helps you to learn to be fearless, to accept failure and try again.

Skateboarding helps you prove to yourself that if you put your mind to something and try, try and try some more, you will eventually succeed.

Thanks Teresa Madeline your answers like your picture are exquisite.

When I started this blog all I knew is that I wanted more girls to skateboard for fun and wear what they wanted.  To me skateboarding is sport, art, transportation, exercise, and self-confidence building so I wanted other girls to benefit from it.

Everyday I’m amazed at how many girls around the world are willing to share how skateboarding is fun for them and how it helps them.  More girls do skateboard as they see girls having fun skateboarding, staying true to their style, and getting encouragement.
