Skate Rock 2010: Wilmington

Check out this video from the Skate Rock 2010, its not strictly a girls edit per say… but it does has a couple sick clips of Karen Aponte killing herself (and her board!) whilst attempting a blunt to rock fakie on a big mini ramp, at 2mins in.

Don’t skimp on the rest of the video though, it’s pretty funny!

Karen also has a full page in this issue of Thrasher Magazine, when I sort out my scanner I will post it up!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHARZ!

Hip-hip hooray to 15yr old Charlotte Thatcher!!

Will maybe try to get a birthday edit up, or at least some photos so watch this space..

REAL GIRLS SKATE CURBS!

Check out this rad little edit that Lovenskate team rider, Lucy Adams made one lonely night in a carpark.
Lucy also said that most of these tricks were learnt just in this one little sesh, giving everyone a reason to pull their fingers out!

Online Game: Sk8r Girl

If you’ve got a spare 5 minutes and can handle some cheesey old skool music, then have a quick go on this arcade game: Sk8r Girl. There’s only one button – the space bar – which makes you jump – and you’ve just got to collect the money, jump the obstacles and grind everything in sight!! As annoying as it is addictive!!

Art On Grip

Do you know ‘Art on grip’??

Do you ever draw on your deck tape by yourself?

‘Art on grip’ has already been printed on a deck tape.

There are  many types of design!!

The company is based in Los Angeles and they are the only company in the world that sells printed deck tape.

Even cooler is that the deck tape is now offered at the Super Girls Jam 2010.

and then

Yukiko ‘mic’ Murayama got a new sponser from them!

Congratulation mic!!(mic’s blog)

She goes to Philadelphia in america this month.

She is going to participate on a skate contest at philly.

Have fun!! and Take it easy!!

Skate Like A Girl!

Juli-ette Lipgloss Launch

At The Macbeth in Hoxton, London, on Thursday 16th September there will be a live bands, magical imagery, black confetti, playing cards, and stupid amounts of wine & beer. It might get trashy and decadent – so just in case don’t wear your best shoes. =)

See you guys there!!

Anti-Touring with Lucy Adams

This is the “ANTI-TOUR” edit from Lucy Adams and friends, killing the seaside skatepark, Swalecliffe.

Unfortunately due to work, Lucy couldn’t make some of the dates of the recent Lovenskate tour so put together this video of what she got up to while the boys were away!
Really rad, worth a watch!

While we’re here… There is a currently a facebook group aimed to get lights at Swalecliffe, run by (the soon to be up and skateboarding!) Becky Jaques.
Give her a hand by joining the group to show your support for the park.
Thanks!

They were only in town for a minute as part of the Movers & Shakers RV Tour, but Lyn-Z Adams, Leticia Bufoni, Carabeth Burnside, and the rest of the crew made the most of it at Thrashers Double Rock.

Stefani Nurding in her Prime

SkaterGirl author Stef recently posted on her blog a little footage of herself skating at Prime skatepark in Plymouth. She might spend a lot of her time shredding the mountains (she took a silver and bronze in this years Brits comp in Laax) but her skating is still effortless and smooth.

Artist Profile: Emma Fitzgerald

The lovely Emma Fitzgerald is an old friend of mine from University, who I recently asked to create some bits for me for the NASS 2010 Girls Competition earlier this Summer.

She has mentioned the comp on her blog, along with a few photos of the work so make sure you check it out, take a look around the rest of her website too, it’s rad!!

Below is a photo of Brazilian born, pro skateboarder Leticia Bufoni with her bag by Fitz, she won too many prizes to carry!
