"My dad broke my board so I wouldn't skate anymore. I started when I was 9 years old; I was skating with all the guys in my neighborhood, and he was mad at me because I was the only girl in the middle of 10 guys. He smashed my board in front of me and said, "You're not skating anymore, ever again." But he only broke the wood, so after a day I changed the board and used the track and wheels. When he saw that he was like, "Well, there's nothing I can do. I'm going to have to let her skate." After a year, my dad finally took me to a contest and started supporting me." -Leticia Bufoni Leave a Reply. |
AuthorHi, I'm Jenna and I'm a sports fan! I've been avidly watching sports since 2011 because I found that by watching sports, I would be able to communicate with my dad and brother better. Ever since I got into sports, I've been able to enjoy myself more when I go to sporting events with my family. Archives
