We are hosting a fundraiser, screening party and creative networking event on May 21st from 7-9pm at The Martin in Chicago!
We are an inclusive skate crew of ‘later skaters’ who are helping to change the social ideologies around age and ability in skate culture by showing up and having fun.
The name isn’t referring to the jolly harbinger of the late-December Capitalist holiday OR a guitar legend that also responds to “Carlos.” It refers to the Orange County community, Santa Ana. And, founded in 2019, this crew is inclusive and non-denominational.
I’m pretty certain if my family hadn’t moved back to California from Boston when I was in 8th Grade I eventually would have picked up a board and found my way to LonelyBones. String together the words ‘gentle’ and ‘nurturing’ with skating, throw in two kick-ass engineer-leaders, and you’ve got my attention.
A group chat turned mob of beginner/intermediate skaters cruising LA, documenting, and celebrating every minuscule achievement like we won the lottery. This gave me the confidence to attend a Display Only sesh where I met Ashley, the missing piece to the Board 2 Tears puzzle. That was her first meetup. Kismet.
