Asphalt Amazons

Die Schwedinnen Katree Wikström, Sandra Costa und Erika Akosta zeigen, dass skatende Frauen mit der Männerwelt mithalten können - egal wie, egal was, egal wann ... 

The Asphalt Amazons: Katreen Wikström/Sandra Costa/Erika Acosta (Sweden)

This inseparable trio are pretty much single handedly showing the world that womens skateboarding is every bit as fun, fast, watchable and competitive as mens. Between them they skate downhill, free ride, slide, park and bowls - so that's pretty much everything! There's also time for a bit of surfing in there as well, and they are a pretty well traveled lot - this summer's trip list includes free rides, races and reefs from Are in northern Sweden to Montreal in Canada, and pretty much everywhere in between. They stand out at every event they go to or organize thanks to their fast skating and super friendly nature - the only thing more important to them than skating is friendship! Be sure to say hello if you see them at the next race.

 

Look out for the upcoming "Skate or be Late" all girl skate weekend - more info soon.
