COTM – Your Cool Aunt Skatie
Dear Aunt Skatie,
Thanks so much for the socks you sent us for our 18th birthday. We can’t wait to wear them when we skate at your big party on August 20th from 6-10pm at USC’s surf house 1207 W 29th Street. We’ve skated a few miniramps in our day but never while listening to a Tony Hawk cover band.
SOTM: HAVE FUN AND BE WEIRD WITH TY THOMPSON
“Skate now, cry later” might be Ty Thompson’s catchphrase but for this skateboarding skulptress who also bartends as her day job, there isn’t a lot of time for crying.
SOTM: JANTHAVY SLAMMIN’ ONTO THE CALI SCENE
Janthavy Norton grew up watching her brothers skate the streets of Chandler, AZ, but it wasn’t until one night at a party she decided to make friends with a miniramp and tried dropping in… and just kept slamming until the party ended. She’s been skating every day since.
COTM – PANSY: MUTUAL AID BY AND FOR THE PANSIES IN ALL OF US
Mutual aid can take many forms, it’s just about people coming together to meet each other’s needs. To a large extent, just creating space for marginalized people to come skate together is a form of mutual aid, but PANSY also carries out this mission in the form of donation drives, skate lessons and forming safe discussion spaces.
COTM – ONWORD SKATE COLLECTIVE: BREAKING BY BUILDING IN CHICAGO
We are hosting a fundraiser, screening party and creative networking event on May 21st from 7-9pm at The Martin in Chicago!
COTM – LADIES SKATE NASHVILLE IS PITCH PERFECT
I always encourage people to skate within their comfort zone but I try to find one thing within their skill level that they can learn during that meetup. Getting to see the stoke on someone’s face when they roll down a bank for the first time or get a nose stall on a curb is THE BEST!
TIA PEARL- REPPING AND RIPPING THE ADAPTIVE SKATE SCENE
I love being able to represent for the adaptive women of the world. Our division is still growing and the more I can share my love for skateboarding daily but also in a competitive way-the more people will see it happening and get out here to enjoy the fun!
COTM – THE SKATE NYMPHS WELCOME YOU TO MIAMI
Arays Domech had her crew name all picked out and knew there was a need for an organization in South Florida to give girls and LGBTQIA+ folks a safe place to skate. Still, it wasn’t until a broken wrist kept her off her board that she had the free time to put the pieces together and Skate Nymphs was born.
