Chick Ripper Of The Month: Nora Vasconcellos

I dont care who you are or what you say but Nora Vasconcellos is an absolute mad woman. She shreds in the park, rips in the bowl and flat out assaults anything with vert. I have found myself caught on the #noravexplora train and I won't be getting off at any station soon. Hence why we dub Nora the Chick Ripper Of  The Month!

If you don't know who Nora is then here is what you need to know. She has been skating for nearly 7 years, is from Pembroke, Massachusetts, dates a skater boy, rides for Welcome Skateboards, Puma Shoes, Bern Unlimited, Bones Wheels & Independent Trucks, is really into cats and is also rather entertaining.

If you watch this clip of her at the Vans Mini Ramp without a) getting stoked and b) laughing out loud, you are straight up not normal.

Easily one of the smoothest skaters around town.

She also knows whats up when it comes to womens skateboarding. Check out this pic she instagramed a while ago of her calling it how it is. Although all the proceeds of this deck go to breast cancer research, I think you can tell what message Nora is trying to convey.

So if you still don't get why Nora is legit then why don't I just say that she took out the title at last years Vans Women's Pool Combi Comp and she skates on a board with a sloth on the bottom. We wish Nora and all the chickas competing at the Vans Combi this weekend the best of luck! We shall be watching!

Thanks Nora for being a ripper and stoking out so many girls worldwide. Girls who kick it are exactly what the skating scene needs! Who else do you think is kicking it at the moment when it come to women on skateboards, comment below?
