Shredder check-in: Lulu Phoenix Russell

Move over! This 7-year old goofie footer does not let anything hold her back. She is a bundle of energy, speed talker and has made a lot of besties through skateboarding. Slabzoo saw her drop in at the LevelUp vert ramp as it was just another day at the office (not sure she even stopped chit chatting at that point) and we were pretty impressed. We checked in with 7-year-old fearless multi tasker Lulu Phoenix Russel from Palm Beach on the Goldie.
