More about the book

Focusing on the often-overlooked contributions of female, queer, bi, and nonbinary skateboarders, this book chronicles the evolution of skate culture from a patriarchal past to a more inclusive present. It highlights the journeys of four groundbreaking athletes—Alana, Vanessa, Marbie, and Victoria—who challenged societal norms and became pioneers in the sport. Their stories culminate at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, showcasing the rich, diverse history of skateboarding and amplifying voices that have long been marginalized.
