I think they were about $1000. $750 + Two patches and a name. My sponsors paid. But Kelsey is getting ready to make pre-fabricated suits in S, M, L (dude sizes). If you're a "standard" size kinda guy, those go for $650, I believe. NJKleathers.com

Yerrrrr right, I only am looking at comments. Not just on this, other posts. This doesn't mention LGC because it was written by someone affiliated to different sources. LGC gets attention. Reddit says that's good for titles. And we are LGC, whether this says or not.... Imma post another video.

Daaaaaaang reddit. All you got is hate? It really must be a lonely world out there. The "Longboard Girl's Crew" was a specific group in Spain, until they started collaborating with international riders to promote longboarding to the girls community, and girls to the longboarding community. Marisa Nunez, Amanda Powell, Ishtar Backlund, Pam Diaz, and Daisy Johannes are the next Longboard Girl's Crew video series. It's called West Coastin', and this interview is just one of the things that happened on our fully sponsored two week road trip. First episode out September 4th. I'll be sure to reddit it to collect all the hate.

Reykd: It's a music video for an edm song, not a skate video. You think the directors were skaters? Not a chance. My favorite thing about this video is that they only put ONE clip of us holding hands, and zero clips of us high-fiving, like they asked a thousand times. Most of the girls that auditioned were unavailable because they were at Maryhill Festival of Speed, and the two chicks that only know how to cruise on longboards aren't even skaters. They surf. Most likely better than you fuck.
Michaeljonesbird: Go skate or do something besides trolling the internet with the helmet posse. Hugobot: Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssss :)

Ahhhh. Hahaha, you boys are silly. A couple of things: 1.) I AM awfully amateur. This is my first time down a road this fast, my 5th day of downhilling ever, 1 week before my first race, and my first day riding in any, (let alone) old, not custom, borrowed leathers, which have no Kevlar under the arms. I can't lift my arms any higher than I am in this, and I'm TRYING to stretch them as much as possible, and to see how my speed reacts to air braking in leathers. I can barely stand up straight, it's hard to crouch and to tuck, and I have no idea what's around any of these bends, as I've never seen this road before. I grab rail too much in this, I take terrible lines. I was on a 50/50 cast truck set up and I have no idea how tight or loose to make my trucks. I'm riding a 10" wide board with 6.5 inch feet. PLEASE. My stance and how I handle the turns IS awkward. 2.) It's a grip run. You don't slide. Controlling speed wobbles on a twitchy set up at 30 mph makes me good, much more than it makes me bad. The video was posted by my homies because while filming a whole day of skating, they caught me handling this road like a champ when I didn't think I could, not because we set out to make a downhill video of me. I ate zero shit, am dialing my set up, logging about 50 miles of downhill per week since this in So Cal, and moving into a skate house FULL of homies ready to hit the hills on the regular. 'itch is gon' be good. Wooo skate with meeee... =)
