K* Meador

In the print edition of TSJ 24.6, we profile Kassia Meador, charting her rise from 16-year-old Malibu rat to the modern face of female longboarding. “She brought tremendous grace and elegance to the sport,” author Jamie Brisick writes in the piece. “Watching her cross-step to the nose in the movie The Seedling, I remember thinking that first-rate longboarding is perhaps more feminine than masculine.” In accompanying clip from filmmaker Tin Ojeda, Meador displays more of the same in full motion.
