USA Women Slalom Skateboarders Heading to the World Skate Games Paraguay October 2026

I cannot wait to share this because decades on a skateboard have taught me one absolute truth: if you want to make moves, you have to make them yourself. Having grown the slalom scene and secured sponsorships for the USA team, I am now applying that same relentless marketing focus to elite talent.

I don't plan on skating forever though I went over my intended goal by 4 years. I am going to the World Skate Games 2026 in Paraguay to race and coach. I am officially channeling all my energy into elevating the younger racers in skateboarding: the young, exceptionally talented that are willing to listen to my knowledge to keep moving forward. Leiola Kahaku from Campbell, California, the incredible Maggie Harrison from Texas, and myself. Leia is going to be a force for the USA as well other many others. I just don't have the bandwidth to help the team like I did before since my focus is on the upcoming Japanese American National Museum Retrospective Art, Skate and Design show October 31st and the skate documentary Leiola and I have been part of for the past two seasons.

FYI we are going to have a slalom race or jam October 31st in Japan Town in San Jose. More information will be getting posted.

@worldskategames Paraguay 🇵🇾 October 13-15 2026 Slalom Skateboarding Days 12th is a practice day.

CONEFEST Slalom Skateboard World Championships in Kentucky, September 18, 2015

Just decided to go to the CONEFEST Slalom Skateboard World Championships in Kentucky, September 18, 2015. I want to fund it by selling some old school skate items. I need to clear out some stuff and this is going to be my motivation. I want to self fund with old skate stuff. I will be posting on my Esty or eBay. I have tons of skate collectors rare stickers, National Skateboard Reviews originals, hard to find items from skateboarding since 1973. Santa Cruz Skateboards, Independent, Vintage skatepark items. I have triplicates, and dupes. I am saving sets for my kids.
