Skate Like a Girl helped me build the basics of skateboarding in order to have the confidence to develop my skateboarding in public places like skateparks which can be very intimidating for beginners, all with an emphasis on inclusivity in a welcoming environment. - Miché / Participant
So yesterday was my second day on a regular skateboard. I came to the Oakland skate park today, and so many people there were so incredibly helpful!! I learn so much in such a small time. Within two hours I learned probably at least ten new things!! - Jessica / Participant
These women are a wonderful example to our girls! They have been supportive and encouraging to girls and women who skate and who are learning to skate. - Carol, Parent
