At only 20 years of age, Lizzie Armanto has been re-writing skateboarding history. A native of Santa Monica, California, Lizzie started skating in 2007 with her younger brother. Since then she has dominated women’s skateboarding, competing in the men’s division in international contests, and most recently winning a gold medal at X Games just a few days ago. It’s safe to say the future of women’s skateboarding is in safe hands.

That’s sick that she’s competing in men’s and women’s comps. She must train like crazy to be at such a high level after 5-6 years.
Seems like a cool chick too.
Bring on more girls in skateboarding!
EDIT: Oh, props to Cam too for the filming/editing.
She just loves to skate and the lifestyle.
I’m so stoked we got the opportunity to do this feature video on Lizzie.
Me too!
