We are always impressed when girls take initiative. So when 11 yr old Angela contacted us through instagram and showed us pics of herself shredding her backyard ramp, we were interested to hear more. Turns out she has skated some of the coolest places around, like Woodward West, & the Girl/Chocolate warehouse ramp just to name a few. She has also had a chance to skate with the Pink Helmet Posse girls on her own backyard ramp. Get ready to get inspired by a young girl who is asking for what she wants and going after it. That's pretty cool!
