Shredder check-in: Lexi Pascoe
You’ll often find her carving the bowl at Alex skatepark with her freshly cut mullet blowing in the wind. Move over, boys! She started skating at 7, entered her first competition at Rumble on the Reef ‘21 and her progression and support for fellow skaters this past year has been amazing. We checked in with 9-year-old Lexi Pascoe from the Sunshine Coast.

Hey Lexi, you’re taking your skating to the next level these days.
What is it about skating that you love?
I just like going to different skate parks, learning new tricks and making friends.
In the two and a bit years you’ve been skating, what’s your best memory?
Skating at Rumble on the reef 2021 in Mackay for my first ever skate comp, I was so nervous but after my first run I was so pumped to go again, the support from everyone was something I will never forget.
Yeah, you had a bit of a support crew up there. And your worst slam?
Skating up a bank in a street section not realising there was a five stair on the other side I jumped off my board and landed on my hip and screamed the house down I did end up skating that night with a very bruised hip.
Ouch. Do you have a favorite skate brand?
Visit Skateboarding
Do you have a song you love skating to?
‘We are the people’ by Empire of the sun
What's your best advice to fellow skaters?
Have fun and come and skate with me
Tell us. Do you have any weird or hidden talents?
I’m really good at sleepwalking
Impressive and so very useful in life! Anything else we should know about you?
I love travelling with my family, keeping super busy and will give most things a good shot.
Thanks Lexi! Keep it up, girl!
For sure!
