When I talk to people about skating, it can be a little challenging. Some automatically think I skate derby, just because I’m a woman. A lot of people think of it as being stuck in a time warp with images of rollerblading in a 80’s power suit conjured up in their minds.

Then, a few weeks ago I saw this incredible trailer. It actually gave me goosebumps.

THIS is what I do.

There is a vibrant community of skaters and artists across the globe doing amazing things on 8 wheels. These film makers really seem to get what this movement is about. Fortunately, they’ve hit their fundraising goal. But there’s still a little time to donate if you like what you see. You can check out their Kickstarter page here:  http://kck.st/1d3m8yX
