Extreme Women

The great thing about the Extreme Tales Newsboard is that you keep finding interesting stuff that is thematically arranged - but only appears over time.

Recently I posted about two Argentinian sites about female skateboarders - Skate Feminino Argentina and Girls Assault which I thought were pretty cool - the idea that there are Argentinian women devoted to skateboarding is great.

But then I found Girlie Camps which is devoted to running camps for women who want to snowboard, surf and skate and shortly after that I found Powder Room which is a female snowboarding site.

It looks like a whole community is growing up to encourage women to try things they might not think of trying - and to keep on doing the things they like.

One thing is certain - its obvious that women like extreme sports as much as men - and as this new generation of "extreme females" grow up we can expect to see some interesting action from women who were nurtured and encouraged by websites and organisations like these.
