On Tuesday, December 24th, Skate Girls Tribe met up for a pre-Christmas meeting/party. People started coming in at 11:30 AM. As we waited for the other people to arrive, we colored in printed out drawings.
Once everyone came, we moved on to the main project, warrior armor. We got inspired by modern-day “warriors”, like Katniss from the Hunger Games. Some people made turtle shells, others made crowns and jewelry.
Later, we ordered pizza and had lunch.
Afterward, we played a game in which we had to eat one clementine that was hanging on a string. (without using our hands) The victors were given the advantage of picking their presents first in the gift exchange.
After the gift exchange, we all went outside to longboard. Some girls already knew how to longboard and some did it for the first time. We helped and supported each other. The party was a great success, and everyone had a lot of fun.
Thank you to everyone who came, thank you to Zoe who helped to organize the party, and thank you for the wonderful gifts. You all rock!
Skate Girls Tribe at the A-Frame Challenge – review by Tatiana Kolina
Skate Girls Tribe joined other skaters at the A-Frame Challenge organized by Convoy Skateboarding and Alpine Skate Shop. The A-Frame Challenge skateboarding contest tested skills of the best skaters that the Washington DC area has to offer. The jam contest had 50 skaters pit against each other, for a 30 minute battle of grinds, gaps, flip tricks, rails and ledges. It was the first contest of its kind at Lake Fairfax Skate park.
The top three tricks performed on the A-frame within the time allotted would win the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prize. Yoshi Tanenbaum from Silver Spring MD won the biggest prize of $500.00 for the best trick. There was an awesome line up of sponsors with all types of giveaways for the contestants. Skate Girls Tribe offered sPACYcLOUd merchandise.
The girls were happy to be able to participate in a skating contest for skaters of all ages and genders. It could have been daunting to show up at a male dominated venue but the organizer of the event, Eamonn Bourke, created a separate mini contest for girls. This helped the girls get over their initial shyness and do what they came to do – SKATE!!! Ekaterina Nekrasova and Angelina Lauriano were the first girls to show their skills. As the event went another girl joined in. The girls skated for 15-20 minutes and had way too much fun. What the girls found was that there were many boys who supported girl’s skaters at the event. All girls were given prizes from sPACYcLOUd. Overall, the day was a success. We hopes that girls will continue to show out!
Skate, Peace, and Love!
