They got him down at Dwindle packing boxes, paying for boards still and he kickflipped 20 and basically sacrificed a leg. LOL

I’m guessing am.  All the big names went pro this year and Samarria is someone the majority of us got hyped on during the summer, so I think she’ll get the bump up after Street League or a part.   Max Palmer and Yonnie went back to am after moving to bigger companies

Something I keep thinking about is it better for the more popular female skaters to build up female centric brands or is it better to integrate (for lack of a better word) into established companies and be more visible.  I love that none of it feels like it’s tokenism and that if a “guy” brand adds a female skater, it feels organic

No hate but I fail to see the value she potentially may or may not bring to the team. She is a good skater but I don't see why they need to put her (or Enzo) on at all. Does she slay contests or have a big alternative following? It seems kinda aimless. They shoulda put Jerry Gurney on instead.

I think you underestimate the amount of girls that actually skate, the addition of Samarria is only gonna help the brand tap into a different market that will only increase overall sales. This whole skate thing is still a business at the end of the day.

there's a whole demographic of girls that skate, and it grows everyday.  if they look up to her, they'll buy her stuff.  also she rips.  doesn't seem that complicated.

Oh its not that complicated...i didn't know girls skateboarded or had the ability to have/manage their own money. Thank you!

From the bitch on the Zephyr skate team, to Jamie Reyes and Elissa, girls have been skating for as long as skating's been around, putting 1 chick on the squad doesn't do shit for sales. You don't seem that complicated.

I believe that! I know Leticia been had followers/people asking for her board since before she dropped her first naughty pics! I somehow doubt Samarria can garner a following as strong? It is a step in the right direction, but lets see more than 1 chick per squad, fuckin bukkake Hardgoods co.

Awesome. Barring catastrophic injury, she is only gonna get better.

Kinda feel bad for Hoopla putting in the work to encourage and develop woman skaters like Samarria just have them switch up. I have a feeling the Hoopla and Meow skateboard teams are going to get pillaged in the coming year. You know someone is gonna make Laci Baker an offer she can't refuse soon. Who will it be?

Again, leticia isn't just "a girl." she's had several marketing forces behind her, inundating the market with her image; selling more than just skating. Only time will tell if Plan B will continue to post those numbers based on Leticia and the same goes for Enjoi and Samarria.

I can't prove you wrong because the situation is new and still rare enough that there's no way to know exactly how it will play out. Which is why I said your comment was unfounded in the first place. Or wait, I guess i did just prove you wrong, nevermind.

Samarria does good in contests and she will probably do well at the olympics. not sure why nobody has mentioned the olympic angle yet but look for all the major brand camps to add females in the next year. Dwindle needs a girl on the roster for that. She did better on the KOTR tryout than Enzo and made the team. Hoolpa is a terrible brand through powell that has no marketing and no industry clout so im stoked for her that shes on a legit brand now even. I hope she can come through and make cool fun videos with Enjoi and not blow it like countless others.

that Caswell graphic is reference to a 90s World Industries Randy Colvin deck that came in opaque black bag. the Yary version was bassed off this.

Is she the first black woman to be pro on a major company? Representation matters and most who disagree are already represented. Growing up as 1 of 2 black kids who skated in my town, when I saw TK and Antwaun's Baker 3 parts it felt validating. Hopefully Samarria can do the same for black girls

That's a good point and is super rad. Anybody know?

She could be. Aside from that, she rips and definitely has a sick style in the streets. Empowering girls all over to have as good of bs flips as she does.

My friend who was in Enjoi flow vortex for years before becoming an alcoholic getting 2 DUI's and moving back in with his parents told me Louie's whole funny nice guy thing is just an act to sell boards and that he's really a jaded piece of shit. And he has no reason to lie.

maybe i'm missing something, but getting dicked around and having your dreams shattered seem like a pretty good motive for shit-talking somebody, no?

Annoys me when people say some of these girls don't deserve to be pro or aren't on a "pro level".
The fact is, most aren't on the same level as male pros, its true and quite obvious, but it doesn't matter. We shouldn't just wait for the day to come where some girl is on a Nyjah level of skating to say she deserves being pro. The girls becoming pro now are paving the way for female skaters in the future, and making a lot more females interested in skating and pushing for progression, and because of this they will just keep getting better and better.

Well put, maybe with the increase in women moving up to bigger brands companies like Hoopla and Meow may get recognition before they get their riders stolen. As well as female riders getting picked up by companies willing to pay.

That being said waiting for Vanessa to get on Huf and an Alana Smith part, she is pro for a reason and has tried gnar stuff at X-Games

These brands aren't dumb. There's more to this than just board sales. Look at HUF. You think Chinese hedge-funds aren't looking for companies to buy in the run up to China 2020.

Does she hold a Jamaican passport? Will she be repping Jamaica in China 2020?

Stack your team with potential contenders and watch the bids come in.

I don't understand people who say women need to be as good as men to turn pro. Do you know any sport where women actually have to compete with men? The best female skater will most likely never be as a good as the best male skater. Unless maybe she does take alot of hormones...
That is not to say that women will probably get alot better in the next few years.

It's the same as NBA vs. WNBA.  It's not a fair comparison.  Skill-wise WNBA players are on par with decent male high school players.  That shouldn't matter.  It's rad the girls are out there doing it.
