Breana Geering and Una Farrar Are Changing Skate Culture in Vancouver

  • Una Farrar and Breana Gearing are carving out the new wave of Vancouver street skateboarding. In this episode we explore what ‘crew’ means for creativity in the city whose diverse and storied skate culture is founded on community. Michelle Pezel a 25 year skate veteran and founder of the legendary Antisocial Skate Shop can attest to this: “Community I think plays a huge part in creativity... People don't really think of it as all being connected but it's all connected.”. It’s Una and Breana’s bond and their creative outlets in film and music which push them past their comfort zones to shred new spots and to discover deeper layers of self acceptance.
    Boardly is a video series that spotlights people from all walks of life who share one thing in common: a passion for skateboarding that has shaped who they are in equally different, yet unique ways. In Season 2 of Boardly, Style Notes, we explore what skateboarding means to six emerging voices. More than a sport, skating is a powerful form of self-expression. An identity. An art. Above all else it is raw creativity in its purest form.Subscribe here: bit.ly/Subscrib...

      @Caroline Richardson lol you're either young or weren't that into skating. Yes, it's a male dominated sport, but it's also a sport that wasn't as popular with women to begin with. Think early 2000's, females though in the minority were in skate culture. Then that dropped off, then back up again with popularity of long board and penny boards, then dropped of, and it's coming back again

The really thing that bothers me is that when it comes down to raw 100% skateboarding and not this trendy sjw gender war clickbait Vice bullshit, they haven't changed a damn thing about skateboarding. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying these ladies aren't ripping it out there and don't deserve a spotlight on them for the younger generation to look up too.

    i needed that so much. thank you girls! and also Breana, when you said about wanting to quit skating i felt that. right now i feel similar. that's probably because im in high school and still haven't figured out who i am and who i wanna become. hopefully that will change soon and i'll be back on my board again. but this time for longer ♥

    Breana is a rare type of girl who looks pretty natural on a skateboard.

    They seem cool and they can deffo roll. But being a skater, seeing other skaters get emotional and throw their board around, I can only cringe.
