Phl Team Rider Gaby Ponce takes 3rd in Xgames 15!
WHO SAYS GIRLS CAN’T SHRED ?!?!
HUGE Props to PHL Team rider Gaby Ponce for taking 3rd place + showing the everyone that girls can skateboard too (and even show up than the boys!)
ESPN even did a feature article on Gaby back in February —
After learning the basics, Ponce convinced her parents to take her to the local skatepark. She improved rapidly after starting on a four-foot mini ramp, and by the time she was 12 she was begging for a trip to the nearest vert ramp.
“Skating is my life,” she says. “It’s so much fun for me, and when you’re having a good time and doing well, you have that positive feeling all the time. That helps me with my confidence even when I’m not skating.”
Check out this link to see some of the footy of Gaby ripping live at XGames 15.
Way to go Gaby — Nothing but love from everyone here at the Woodward Skatepark of PHL + the whole Woodward Family !
(You PHL Team BOYS better watch your backs because the LADIES are on a serious come up!)
Well done Gaby! We are all rooting for ya!
