    GIRL SKATE INDIA

    PHOTOS LIVE!

    Girl Skate India Tour Vol. 2

    logo black.jpg
    The Girl Skate India Tour was back for Volume.2
    14 skateboarders from 8 countries set off on a trip that covered India North to South. 
    With Delhi as the gathering point, the journey started at Janwaar, went down to Bangalore, ended in Mahabalipuram and unofficially ended in Auroville.
    This time we had 4 dudes on board with the hope of it being a healthy example of male/female interaction in the smaller towns and villages of India. 
    These photos capture our journey giving workshops and building an extension to the diy spot in Mahabalipuram in efforts to bring more awareness on our culture and encourage Indian girls to join.
