korea has removed the 24 year old cut bird in as one of the world's best long borders. in 2020, she won the world championship and freestyle long board damn thing. and in 2021. she came in 2nd. and then we dealt with in 2020, i won the world championship, which should have taken place in the netherlands and due to covet 19 that it ended up happening on line was my opponents included russian, brazilian, taiwanese, and polish athletes. polonium lumber, dancing mix of skateboarding with don steps and trick. marina found her love for the sport after moving to france. teenager recognition and the sport is not only a win for her, but for all the women she represents. over that of them, i deny it is a victory for black women because in this sport, they are under represented in the media cinema video clips and advertisements. the same plea, she's always placed. so girls think this board is not for them. i was very proud

because i was the 1st black woman to win the competition and place economy. then you got to order the, the family where become for madam with negative know these days, marina's work takes her around the world for photo shoots, brand ham pains, and of course skating. but her journey wasn't always easy just with the screening. so i have experienced racism, discrimination and sexual assault. i've been through it all and i know what it's like. i think that almost all women have already suffered this recommendation. whatever that may be. again, it's going to function safin. marina hope to spread the love she has prolong, bought dancing with others. and although the sport is not getting olympic discipline, she's been named one of kept that olympic ambassadors for 2024 from one champion, dancing around stereotypes. let's meet a mother who is just whizzing past them. how many one vehicle is the 1st woman to
