10 Gift Ideas for Skater Girls

I think we can all agree that skateboarding isn’t for the faint of heart! You’ve got to be a pretty tough person to try over and over again until the perfect kickflip is mastered or you’re finally able to brave the half pipe with the neighborhood pros. Even though at first glance it could seem like a rather dangerous and unforgiving pastime (trust us that concrete hurts when you wipe out) there are so many important lessons that come with skating we can appreciate! Resilience, grit, determination, passion – all qualities that help shape a non girly girl to become strong and independent. 

Whether you’re a skater yourself or you’re looking for gifts for a friend or family member, we’ve got you covered! We’ve gathered a list of the best boards, gear, accessories, and apparel to help you find the perfect gift for a girl who loves to skate! Looking for more than 10 awesome gift ideas?
