TOUR the MONTANA Skate Scene through the eyes of withitgirl

GRACE ELDEN


My name is Grace Elden, and this is a look inside what the skate scene is here in Montana.

I grew up in Whitefish, Montana and I've been skateboarding since I was about 14 years old.



At first, there were not a lot of skaters in the younger generations at the time that I knew of, it was not yet very popular among teens.



At my local skatepark in whitefish, It was your stereotypical small-town group of skaters. The older man who can absolutely rip, the friend group of middle school boys, and the punk skaters.



I observed change over the years, and since then skateboarding here has blown up. Now the park is packed, all ages, all ability levels, and almost everyone in my high school started to skate.



It has become the hangout spot in town for many people and has been getting more and more inclusive. Skateboarding here has really allowed me to form a community with everyone and the skate scene from all over Montana.
