Hey everyone! Let's be honest, I wasn't always a skating aficionado. I mean, I was always a huge fan of watching skating videos, of course, but actually, getting on a board myself? That's a whole other story. My awkward, slightly bruised initiation happened during a family trip to the beach. My older brother, a total skating prodigy (or so he thought), decided to teach me. Cue epic falls, several scraped knees, and an undeniable burst of adrenaline. That's when I knew. It was love at first fall, folks! I was hooked. So, I started looking for inspiration everywhere I could find it, and Instagram became my playground. Ever since then, these rad skaters have kept my stoke up.

What sets these accounts apart? It's more than just the sick tricks (though, let's be real, the tricks are awesome!). It's the passion, the creativity, the determination.
