By Girl Skate Mag
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of the second issue of Girl Skate Mag, your go-to skate magazine for celebrating skate culture and the people who make it thrive. This issue turns its focus to the South West of England, from the vibrant Bristol skate spots to the scenic Cornwall skate spots along the coast. It’s a love letter to the energy, creativity, and inclusive community that defines skating in this region.
I spent time exploring different corners of the South West skate scene, meeting skaters who shape these places in their own unique ways. While we couldn’t cover every spot, the aim was to capture the feeling of skating in the South West, offering inspiration for both new skaters and seasoned.

Skate spots in Mount Hawke, Truro, Falmouth, Newquay and Shrednehams, also features on Blackmass, Dean Lane, Campus Pool and other iconic UK skate spots.
