This Rad Movie Starring Legit Female Skateboarders Is Coming To A Theater Near You!



We have been waiting for this film for what seems like forever!  Director Crystal Moselle's new film THE SKATE KITCHEN drops at theaters (hopefully near you!) this August.

In the meantime, we have the full-length movie trailer to tide you over.

If you aren't familiar with THE SKATE KITCHEN girls, you need to be. They are a real-life group of girls (Rachelle Vinberg, Dede Lovelace, Nina Moran, Kabrina Adams, Ajani Russell, Jules Lorenzo, Brenn Lorenzo) who skate together in NYC. The first time we saw them being celebrated worldwide, was in Crystal Moselle's short film "That One Day" for the fashion upscale brand, Mui Mui. Since then they have appeared in everything from the pages of Glamour Magazine & Elle Magazine, to  various videos and ads.

And if you are wondering what "The Skate Kitchen" means? For centuries women have been told to "stay in the kitchen where they belong" as a way to put them down,  even today you'll find that some people use that awful phrase when commenting you videos of female skateboarders. So this group of rad girls took the word, turned it on its ear, and said yep, this is where we belong "The Skate Kitchen".

Pretty rad.
