This statement may sound ridiculous, but we wouldn’t print it if we didn’t think it was true: Skateboarding has always been a guide to what’s cool in the world. Since the early days of street skating, each generation of skateboarders has unwittingly educated the tastes and fashions of the next generation. Growing up they were like our collective big brothers and sisters, putting us on to what had some flavor and what sort of sucked.
For this One Sheet, we hit up Sam Narvaez, a Cuban-American skater who grew up in Key Largo, Florida. If you’re not yet familiar, you can catch her in Krooked’s latest UK tour video, Where To Go, or go peep her new solo part here. Her brother Josh is also a skater you may be familiar with, and outside of the skate world she’s a talented chef.
