Arin Lester
To make it in skateboarding, you have to be at least kind of good at skateboarding.
Arin Lester is shockingly good at skateboarding. Devastatingly good. Gooder than anyone who works at this magazine and even more good than we are in our dreams.
That in mind, it’s no wonder she’s racking up dream sponsors and putting out footage like it’s nobody’s business. Somehow, she’s also sort of delightful. A good person, which matters. Any dumb dick can practice for years and get good, but to remain humble and grateful and inspired and kind while being talented is a remarkable thing.
Top to bottom, skating to speaking, Arin is undeniable, and we adore her for it.
