Being herself has made Jordyn one of the most-exciting young skaters on the scene today. She started making waves after her undeniable performance during the 2016 X Games—an event she qualified for at the last minute. It felt like fate. After that moment, Jordyn knew she wanted to take skateboarding to the next level, and she began preparing for Tokyo. But the road hasn’t been easy. On top of her shoulder injury, Jordyn has to overcome the obstacle of being a woman in a male-dominated sport. She hopes to inspire others by showing when you do what you love, you will be happy and to be yourself—no matter what others think or say about you.
