“It is either you and one other girl or there are no girls. When you are the only girl skater out there you have to be confident and not care what people say or think.” -Maria Hill #womenskate #skate #university #arizonaskateboarding #womensskateclub #woman #women #empowerment

“If I magically became the female Tony Hawk then…well, actually not the female Tony Hawk there are a lot of great girl skaters out there too." -Maria Hill, vice president of ASU women's skate club #girlswhoskate #asu #skateboarding #equalrepresentation

We asked, you answered! After collecting data, we found that 8% of women said yes; whereas, 16% of men said yes showing that twice the amount of skaters on campus at #ASU are male. #wow #woman #women #empowerment #womensskateclub #ASU #University #zonaskate #skate

Skateboarding has been associated with many stereotypes both good and bad over time. Some that may come to mind are rebels, athletes or teenage boys. What challenges do you face as a female skater? #azskateboarding #azwomenskate #asuwomen #longboard #skateboard #skateboarding

Skating has always been a male-dominated sport, from the X-Games to your skate park down the street. Why is this? We will be exploring what it’s like to be a female skater in the Phoenix Valley by hearing the inside experiences from female skaters themselves. #skatepark #skate

Skateboarding is an ever-evolving and diverse culture. Some of the world’s best skaters aren’t even old enough to drive, yet some are in their 60’s and older! This sport is supposed to be for everyone everywhere, yet there is still a prevalent gender gap. #womenskate #grlpower
