Seems like it's a good platform for them to get wide exposure for what they love doing and maybe get paid and maybe some free product. Good on them.

It's not like it's an over-dramatised 'Berra Special' where his voice monologue-ing over the top of the video about how monumental this is and how important skateboarding is etc. I enjoyed the clip.

Yeah, not yet. I'm sure that exact thing will happen soon enough.

I don't see anything wrong with it. They look like they're having fun, filming, making a zine, and didn't misrepresent anything that makes skateboarding fun or good. If seeing a bunch of girls having a good time hanging out together and supporting each other gets more girls interested in skateboarding then all the better.

Does Berra have psoriasis or something? Side effects of too many Dianetics readings?

Conflicted on this one.
Fuck Urban Outfitter's idea-thieving culture-vulture store.
These girls all rip and deserve a spotlight.
I saw some shit on facebook that was supposed to be like this, but the girls could barely ollie. All I could think was "there are some ripping girls out skating these days, but these aren't them."
Now this shit comes out and despite being from a totally shit company, they got the right group of women together to spotlight whats going on in women's skating.
Are you a kook? If you would say this, the answer is “YES”
I quit skating for a time due to piling out

i hate berra as much as (or more than) the next guy, but I think this is pretty cool.  its good to see more girl skaters get some attention, and not as a novelty, but as a normal part of skateboarding.  say what you want about it, but this will probably help a lot of girls feel comfortable getting into skating

Watched the trailer. Didn't hate it. Looks like a group of girls that can skate pretty good. Still waiting for SB's badly written overly dramatic blurb that mentions how this project relates to "him" and "his" creative process and how "him" lending his name to this validates it way more than anything the girls do.

Cher Horowitz: So okay, I don't want to be a traitor to my generation and all but I don't get how girls dress today. I mean, come on, it looks like they just fell out of bed and put on some baggy pants and take their greasy hair - ew - and cover it up with a backwards cap and like, we're expected to swoon? I don't think so.

it's a shame that they don't have a brand that they can rep instead of UO and Berra. So why not start your own brand? You're already doing all kinds of other stuff, so why not? Worst case is that they'd end up with cheap boards.

I'm not going to lie, I have psoriasis and if Berra haves it I can sympathize with him. I hate psoriasis. I'm not down with the whole space ET scientology thing but I have psoriasis... especially because scratching my psoriasis wounds feels better than busting a nut sometimes. Which is nasty.

It was kinda cheesy to watch but they're clearly cool as fuck so I'm backing it. I just wish we'd see small companies getting involved with girls instead these big corpos have been
