Lori

Lori, the current etnies Girl of the Month, has a love for motocross and enthusiasm for life that’s completely infectious. The 15-year-old is just finishing up her freshman year in high school and competes in National Amateur Motocross Hillclimbs every chance she gets. “It’s an honor to be chosen as an etnies Girl of the Month,” says the California native. “More girls can see a girl who rides a dirt bike and I can show them that motocross isn’t just a boys’ sport!” We caught up with Lori to discuss her passion for motocross, her biggest accomplishment and the best piece of advice she’s ever received.

“When I’m on my dirt bike I feel as if I’m free from everything else and that the only thing I need to worry about is how I am riding.”

etnies Girl: What are your interests?
Lori: I love motocross for sure and everything that revolves around it. My other interests include photography, sports, music, interior design, shopping, hanging out with my friends and family, my pets, fashion, demolition derbies and being outdoors.

etnies Girl: What are your talents?
Lori: My talents are riding my dirt bike, playing soccer and photography.

etnies Girl: How did you get involved in motocross?
Lori: I got involved in motocross through my younger brother when I was nine years old. For his seventh birthday, my parents got him his first bike and I would ride it when he let me; I thought riding a dirt bike was so much fun. I begged my parents for a bike of my own after that, so a month after my tenth birthday they finally got me a bike and I’ve been doing it ever since!

etnies Girl: When did you start competing and how often do you compete?
Lori: I began competing in motocross hillclimbs at the age of 12. The first time I ever tried a hillclimb was in April 2004. I compete four times a year. I also do some local motocross races here and there during the year when I get a chance.

etnies Girl: What do you enjoy most about competing?
Lori: The thing that I enjoy most about competing would have to be that it is very fun and I love the competition. I also get to meet a lot of new people and I have friends from all over. The competition is the best part because everyone you go against is very good and it’s always a challenge. I love that!

etnies Girl: What do you like about etnies Girl?
Lori: The thing that I like about etnies Girl is that they show a lot of support to every girl out there, whether they are into male-dominated sports or just being themselves. I love the clothing and shoes—they’re awesome. I love everything about etnies Girl! The whole company is great and is doing a great job showing support for us girls!

etnies Girl: Why are you an etnies Girl?
Lori: I am an etnies Girl because I love what I do; I have a lot of heart for the things I do in life. I fight for every dream that I have and I don’t let people put me down. If I want to get something done in life I will give it all I’ve got to get it done. I’m very independent and fun loving. I'm nice, energetic, active, crazy, dorky, funny, random and much more.

etnies Girl: What do you do for fun?
Lori: For fun I like to hang out with my friends and play with my pets. I like doing photography, usually taking pictures of my pets, different scenery and my family. I also enjoy being outdoors, watching my Dad in demolition derbies and shopping.

etnies Girl: Where do you find inspiration?
Lori: I find inspiration by going to motocross races and watching all the women racers who dominate the boys. I also read magazines that feature female racers who are coming up through the sport because they inspire me to want to be like them. I like watching videos of all the motocross amateurs and how hard they work to get to where they are. I usually find inspiration anywhere, as long as it gives me more confidence to want to do better and be a better person— then I am easily inspired!

etnies Girl: What’s your biggest accomplishment?
Lori: My biggest accomplishment was winning a hillclimb in April 2005. I was the only girl in my class, which was the girls 80/85cc division, to make it over the hill. Also, I won a championship for the girls 16 and under 85cc "C" division last year.

etnies Girl: Why do you love motocross so much?
Lori: I love motocross for so many reasons! I love the adrenaline rush that I get each time before I ride. I have a lot of great friends who I ride with. It’s very, very fun and when I’m on my dirt bike I feel as if I’m free from everything else and that the only thing I need to worry about is how I am riding. It’s just the best feeling when I ride! It’s hard to describe the feeling with words. All I can say is that it’s an awesome sport and I love it so much!

etnies Girl: What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?
Lori: The best piece of advice that I’ve ever received was from my Dad at my first race. He told me just to go out there and have fun, and not to worry about all the people watching. He said I should just to focus on what I had to do and that if I didn’t do well there would always be other races. It was my first time ever trying a hillclimb or racing, and I was nervous. His advice helped me out a lot. I actually did really well my first time out there too!

etnies Girl: What’s really important to you?
Lori: My family and friends because they support me so much and give me the strength to go on each day. All of the support I get from them pushes me to want to accomplish my goals even more so I can make them proud! They help me out a lot and they are always there for me. My education and future goals are also very important to me because I want to live a very successful life; I don’t have a good education then I won’t be able to fulfill any of my future goals.

etnies Girl: Is there anything else you would like to tell us about yourself?
Lori: I am a very friendly person and easy to talk to. I live with my parents, younger brother and my pets. Oh, and whenever I ride I always like to have pink on, whether it’s on my gear or on my bike! I have an awesome sponsor, Team Dirty Girls Racing, who I would like to thank because they give me a lot of support and I’m glad that I am a part of the team!

Lauren Perkins skate footage AND interview? Yes, please!

Filmed at last year’s etnies Girls Get on Board (GGOB) clinic in Nags Head, N.C., this video features Lauren skating, as well as discussing what its like to travel with the etnies Girl team (hint: fun and chaotic), her respect for and friendship with teammate Elissa Steamer, learning how to skate and all about the GGOB program. etnies Girl friend and skate filmer extraordinaire Lisa Whitaker also gets some screen time.

The etnies GGOB series of all-girl action sports instructional clinics kicks off its 2007 season in Indianapolis, Ind., at the Major Taylor Skatepark on June 12. For a complete list of clinics, to sign up for a clinic or for the latest updates and information, visit etnies Girls Get on Board.

Alize Montes, the youngest member of the etnies Girl flow team and April’s etnies Girl of the Month, was just featured on Lat34! Check out her interview (scroll down to the post from May 20) and photo gallery to learn more about this amazing seven-year-old.

Go Skateboarding Day Proclamation

This Go Skateboarding Day Congressional Proclamation pretty much speaks for itself…

Team Update Roundup!

Curious what Elissa, Lauren, Evelien, Janna, Leanne, Tarah, Sarah, Stacey, Nina, Serena, Leilani and Mary have been up to lately? Lucky for you, we just served up a heaping plate of Team Updates! Go and get it…

A Long Overdue Team Update

Long time no Team Update! Fortunately, we’re about to remedy that problem. Check out what the team has been up to lately, and look forward to much more regular updates…

Elissa Steamer has been traveling and skating, skating and traveling. Since being added to the Zero pro team, she has been blowing up all over the place. She had a close call when she rolled her ankle back in January but, from the sound of it, things are fine now. Expect Elissa to be on the map bigger than ever this year!

Lauren Perkins was featured in the May 6 edition of West, the L.A. Times’ weekend magazine. If you haven’t already read the article, check it out! Right before that article came out, she went to Coachella for a little music and fun. (Read Lauren’s Coachella Journal.) On a personal front, Lauren has been using her time to attend REAL SCHOOL! She enrolled back in Huntington Beach High School to finish out her senior year, and get back into the social life (read: go to prom). We never knew LP was so nostalgic! Even with all of her time spent in school, Lauren still managed to make it to the etnies offices to do some testing for a new girls’-specific skate shoe coming out in June called The NIXX. She was the first female to be suited up (just like they do for video games), black suit and white balls galore! We won’t post those pictures or she would be mortified, so you will just have to imagine. Other than that, Perkins has been skating as much as she can when she’s not busy with school…which is almost done! We can’t wait to be there when she graduates in her cap and gown come June.

Evelien Bouilliart has been keeping busy with school and doing a bit of traveling in the past few months for the etnies Wooden Waffles tour in Belgium. You also might not recognize her, because she dyed her hair black. (Yes, we like to keep you updated on all of the important info. Hair is important. That’s her above in the dark hair and shades.)

Janna Meyen had been training super hard in Keystone, Colo., for X Games 11 when she rolled her ankle a few days before qualifiers. It ended up being pretty serious—she tore two tendons and received some heavy bone bruising on the bottom of her tibia. Unfortunately, she was not able to compete, but she still attended to cheer the rest of the girls on. She also did some commentating for ESPN during the women’s slopestyle competition. She has been keeping up with her physical therapy, yoga and swimming, and is working toward getting her shred back on. She’ll be coaching this summer at High Cascade along with Wille Yli-Luoma and Leanne Pelosi. If you haven’t already signed up, visit the High Cascade site to secure your spot.

Leanne Pelosi (AKA “Party Pelosi”) has been keeping quite busy, per usual. This past season, she started working on yet another film project, Runway Films. The film production company will have its first release this September that showcases a handful of the best female shredders in the world. On the contest front, she placed first at Whistler’s Coca Cola Rail Jam last month. This summer, Leanne will be coaching at High Cascade and MGT Girls Session.

Tarah Gieger placed second at the WMA opener at Glen Helen on May 12. Congrats, Tarah! Also, if you don’t already know, Tarah is on the etnies Girl surf team, as well as representing moto…

Sarah Whitmore took home third place at the WMA opener at Glen Helen. Congrats, Sarah! This is even more impressive considering she underwent surgery to her shoulder a mere six months ago.

Stacey Mulligan got through the long, cold winter in Pittsburgh with her newfound love of snowboarding. She said she had been missing out because “snowboarding is the funnest thing ever.” We’re sure Leanne and Janna would agree with her. Other than that, Stacey has been traveling to Cleveland a lot to ride a crazy mountain bike park, she graduated from school in April and has been accepted to go to grad school in Marbella, Spain, where she will be heading in July. Congrats, Stacey!

Nina Buitrago has been doing quite a bit of traveling this year. She traveled to Cleveland in mid-January for an all-girls jam session. She was trying to recover from a crash she had the day before, but you would never be able to tell from the photos she sent. After her trip to Cleveland, Nina headed out on a 20-hour drive to Texas. She stopped in St. Louis at a friend’s house to rest for a few hours, and made there just in time to pick up her two friends from France at the airport in Dallas. They showed her such an amazing time while she was in France after the etnies 20 year party in Paris back in June that it was only fair to show them around. Nina lived in Texas last winter so she knew all of the good spots and parks. In March, Nina headed to Canada for the Toronto BMX Jam, which she won. Well done, Nina!

Serena Brooke (AKA “Sauce”) has been quite the traveler in the past several months, flying from surf training in Australia, all the way to Los Angeles to shoot for Fuel TV, and then back to Australia to compete in the Midori Pro at Newcastle, where she placed fifth and took home $850. While in Los Angeles, she spent time in Malibu, although the surf was not the best. Currently, Serena is keeping herself very busy on the WQS Tour.

Leilani Gryde turned 20 on May 1. Happy belated birthday, Leilani! She was also ranked sixth on Surfer magazine’s “The New Hot 100” (May issue) and just appeared on FUEL TV’s “The Daily Habit” on May 28. Leilani is currently following the WQS Tour along with teammate Serena Brooke.

Mary Osborne is featured in the new Robert August film, “The Endless Journey Continues,” and attended the premiere in Huntington Beach and a screening in Encinitas this month. In February, she attended the Robert August Surf & Turf charity event in Costa Rica, as she does every year. This year, however, she flew down a few days before the event with Robert and Sam August to help Free Wheel Chair Mission pass out 1,100 wheelchairs to disabled people in San Jose, Costa Rica’s capital city. Free Wheelchair Mission has distributed over 200,000 wheelchairs worldwide, including in areas of extreme need such as Iraq and Afghanistan. Robert, Sam and Mary participated in the distribution of these mobility-giving chairs, as well as the narration of a series of short form video documentaries about this special day. Mary says it was an experience that she will never forget and that she felt honored to be a part of the distribution. One by one, chairs were quickly being assembled by charity workers as family and friends of the disabled waited patiently to receive their gift of hope. Tears filled her eyes as family members carried their loved ones into the building and were able to wheel them out. Thanks for giving back, Mary!

That’s about it for now! Until next time…

Leilani Gryde to Appear on FUEL TV’s “The Daily Habit”

etnies Girl team surfer Leilani Gryde will appear on Fuel TV’s “The Daily Habit” this Monday, May 28, at 9 p.m. EDT (6 p.m. PDT). Leilani will join host Pat Parnell in the studio to talk about her surfing roots in Kona, Hawaii, recent travels, and experiences from her second year as a pro surfer.

Now living in Orange County, Calif., Leilani is ranked in the top 10 on the Association of Professional Surfers (ASP) World Qualifying Series (WQS) Tour and is currently competing in the 2007 WQS. Born and raised in Kona, Hawaii, she began surfing at 11 years old and in 2002 attained her first major accomplishment by becoming the National Scholastic Surfing Association (NSSA) National Champion. This summer, Leilani will follow the WQS Tour in hopes of making the ASP World Championship Tour (WCT) in 2008. An international globe trotter, her passion for surfing has taken her around the world in the past year to Australia, Indonesia, Brazil, South Africa and Costa Rica.

Lauren Perkins’ Coachella Trip

etnies Girl skate team rider Lauren Perkins traveled to the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, Calif., at the end of April for a fun-filled day of music in the sweltering heat. Here’s a snapshot of her day.

After a two-and-a-half-hour drive, I finally made it to Coachella. The line was long to get in, but well worth it. Right when we walked in we got to Silversun Pickups, who I hadn’t really heard before, but they were super good. I got to see Peaches, who was pretty intense! But my favorite by far was Interpol; they killed it. It was pretty crowded, so I wasn’t able to get too close, but I got close enough. To top off a good day of awesome music and strong heat, we saw a drunk guy get completely jumped and then the cops arrested the other guy, which was pretty crazy! So after all that, we just pretty much went back to the house and went to bed! I left on Saturday because I had to take care of stuff back home. But it was a lot fun! Thanks, etnies!
