I've seen Arianna ripping it up at contests for a few years now. In fact I was at a contest recently where she had to compete against the boys in both pool and vert ramp, and she was the only girl. There was never any hesitation. At all. She skated lines that the boys weren't even trying - hitting the hip, using the entire set of ramps, varying her tricks on each run and wall to wall. All with quiet determination. Did I mentioned she got 1st in pool and second in the vert ramp? Yeah. The girl is a force to be reckoned with and definitely one to watch.
