Girl is NOT a 4 Letter Word: Who's Rad? Emily Earring!
We were introduced to Emily last year when we saw pics of her skating bowls and drawing GN4LW on the deck around them. We watched her progression via her social media and mutual friends who sent us updates from Pine Ridge, and we saw an amazing trajectory - the girl loves to skate and it shows! Next thing we knew she was featured in a two page spread for Wounded Knee Skateboards. Being in an ad in a skateboard magazine is a hard goal to accomplish for anyone but it's even tougher for girls - so we love that Wounded Knee chose Emily because she fully rips and is so deserving of this rad opportunity! Read on to get to know more about Emily - she is a pretty amazing skater!
Home is? I am a Cheyenne River Sioux but I live on the Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota.
I've been skating since 2012 so that's 3 years at the most and plan to never stop.
What do you enjoy most about skateboarding?
What's your favorite music to skate to?
I'm into all genres of music, but when I'm skateboarding I mostly listen to inspirational hip/hop.
What skater girls inspire you?
The girl skaters who inspire me are Lizzie Armanto, Allysha Bergado, Mimi Knoop, Cara Burnside, Vanessa Torres, Leticia Bufoni The reason is that they're paving way for skateboarding, and they are so raaaaad !!!!!!!
Arvada skatepark in Denver ! I love their bowl and snake run it was my first time there and I went straight for the biggest pool, it's just heaven !
