Meander The Day Away with Allysha Le | Aimless Episode 19

During a time when the roster of women competing in park was a handful and skill levels among participants were vast, Allysha Le was one of few to be at the forefront of progression. Growing up in Los Angeles, California, Allysha frequented the Vans skatepark in Orange County, where she established a solid foundation on transition. Setting her focus on contest skating, Allysha won her first event at the 2011 Vans Girl Combi Pool Classic. Fast forward a decade, what once was a small demographic of women in park contests has exponentiated worldwide, with skateboarders appearing from all corners of the world. Before skateboarding’s debut at the Tokyo Summer Games, Allysha had decided to take a step aside from participating in qualifying events taking a different path down her skateboard career. Now residing in Oceanside, California, Allysha can be found skating with the likes of street chomper Dane Burman, taking up new terrain to skate, and looking forward to stacking clips for a future video part. Follow Allysha along for the day as we met up for coffee, skated around, and toured a few of her favorite spots around town in her latest Aimless video above.

Jordyn, Part Two presented by Toyota USA

Team Toyota athlete Jordyn Barratt grew up in Hawaii skating at Banzai Skatepark. There weren’t any other little girls skating at the park when Jordyn first began. At around 14 years old, Jordyn moved to California and realized there were more skaters just like her. But as she started to compete against some of the girls, she looked up to the competition grew fierce. Gnarly. Some of the older girls were pretty mean, an experience that Jordyn vowed to change for the future girls of skating. It’s not like that anymore, according to Jordyn, partially due to the expanded contest circuit, which has allowed a little more room for everyone to grow. She knows what it’s like to get picked on, so she’s made it a point to make any girls who are coming up feel welcome—the more, the merrier, in her opinion.

Follow along on her journey in “Jordyn,” a two-part series presented by Toyota USA.
