Watch The Girls Division At The WCMX World Championships LIVE!
 Jamey and Katherine taking a break at Venice Skatepark



Make sure you tune in this weekend to watch the WCMX World Championships - these girls are ripping! The women's event will be held on Sunday and we heard that there are 10 girls competing.

Our new rad friends Katherine Beattie and Jamey Perry (pictured above),  flew out from Los Angeles to Grand Prairie, Texas, and they are bringing their "A" Game to this event.

Katherine has been practicing (and solidly making), her backflips at Woodward West - so we can't wait to see if the conditions are right for her to blast one in this comp. Jamey also has some major tricks she is ready to unleash as well, so it will be a great show to watch.

Lots of girls coming from all over to compete - you don't want to miss this!

Katherine Beattie First Female Ever To Do A Wheel Chair Backflip - Insane!



You probably saw our post today about rad girls Katherine Beattie and Jamey Perry who we met by chance, at Venice Skatepark yesterday. Well, check out Katherine is this video from Woodward West and see what they have to say about this rad athlete.

Via Woodward West:

Katherine Beattie is an adaptive sports athlete for Box Wheel Chairs and WCMX. Katherine suffers from Spastic Quadriplegia Cerebral Palsy, also known as Spastic Tetraplegia, that affects all four limbs (both arms and legs). This does not stop Katherine's determination to come back to Woodward West and take another chance at being the first-ever female WCMX athlete to land the coveted and sought after backflip on her wheelchair. Using Woodward West signature foam pits and Resi she will be able to see it and feel it come to life. Will she make it? Check it out as she hucks her flip at one of the only places capable of making her dream come true. 


Stay tuned here on the GN4LW site as we plan to do an interview with both Katherine and Jayme in the very near future!
