68 year old Elaine Shallcross @shuvitcancer working on her shuvits!! We’re so stoked that she hit this milestone! It’s awesome see her progression and comfort on the board in just a short amount of time and practicing a trick on a deck inside is a great way to learn. Who else learned this way? Do you have any tips for Elaine on shuvits? Do you have a really good shuvit you’d like to share? Keep sending your best shuvits to @shuvitcancer with the hashtag #shuvitcancer to support Elaine’s campaign to raise money for Breast Cancer by learning how to shuvit! If you’d like to donate please hit the link in our bio ❤️ #skateboardingisfun #berrics #shuvitcancer #shredyourperception

For 8 years we ran a fundraiser called “Get A Grip” starting at 4 Walls Gallery then moving to The Yards Art space. This is a photo taken of one of the interactive pieces on display and in use. It has been a long journey. Thank you to all the 100’s of artists and many more supporters over the years. Our board is hard at work moving forward to see construction to the end and more.

'Learning To Skateboard In A Warzone (If You're A Girl)' is currently on the short list for an Oscar nomination. It follows a class of girls at @skateistan, the nonprofit that began as a skate school in Kabul in 2007 and grew into a multinational educational initiative. Skateistan focuses on recruiting girls from impoverished neighborhoods to not only teach them to skateboard, but to help them gain courage and life skills that will help them thrive beyond the challenges that lie ahead. Over the course of the school year, the girls grow and become empowered through the joy of skateboarding and the warmth and inspiration of the women who teach them. I highly recommend watching it on @aetv

Looks like we might need to redesign the park. Instead of under the bridge we might have to build it above the bridge.
