NOTE: THIS YAHOO GROUP HAS BEEN DISBANDED AS OF APRIL 2009. IF YOU'D LIKE TO JOIN THE SKATEBOARD MOMS (for women who skate), PLEASE EMAIL BARB@SKATEBOARDMOM.COM.
Barb Odanaka founded Skateboard Moms, Inc. (originally called the International Society of Skateboarding Moms™) in 2004 to connect with other skate-obsessed women. Today, the club has more than 400 members from around the world (you don't have to be a "mom" to join). We've been featured on Good Morning America, CNN, The Early Show, NPR, and many more.
We aim to shred stereotypes, stay fit, and add a dose of danger to our minivan, mac-and-cheese existence. There are no dues, and all experience levels are welcome (please take lessons and always wear full safety gear!).
And don't forget: Mother's Day always means heading to the Mighty Mama Skate-O-Rama™, a skate festival for Women Who Dare To Have Fun! For more info, check out www.skateboardmom.com.
