SKATEFACE

The subjects in Skateface have removed themselves from the norm and accorded themselves in a moment in time where they can control their destiny. They dress up, armour up, and redefine themselves, yet in the same space peel back their emotional shielding and reveal more of themselves through play, physical exertion, putting their bodies on the line and through drama. Lady Trample, an international derby superstar, originally from Auckland New Zealand now residing in Denver, Colorado credits derby with being, "the most accepting sport I know, welcoming males, females, transgender, queer - however you identify, theres a place for you. Its probably the most relevant sport in terms of the way the world is moving forward, because it allows you to express yourself."
