Top-seeded Dutch skateboarder Roos Zwetsloot is the first-ever skater girl to frontside 50-50 grind, one of the most famous skate spots in the world.
The Hollywood Highschool 16 Stairs spot is monumental for all skateboarders as it was constantly being shown to Baker videos and other iconic parts.
There's never a female skateboarder to ever try to nail a trick on Hollywood High primarily because it is massive, and it will only make you cripple if you're not yet ready.
Since the mid-90s, skateboarders have been skating the beast of the beast. But, this time, the 21-year-old girl skater proved that she could also grind the spot with no problem at all.
"DREAM COME TRUE." Zwetsloot posted on her Intagram account. "Had the Hollywood 16 on my mind for a while, so stoked I got to skate it during my last trip in LA. Thanks Thrasher mag for the spread. Dec 2021 edition is now available in your local skateshop!"
The Zeist Netherlands native has been a dominant skateboarder ever since she became an Olympian. Her triumph in landing an astounding trick in Hollywood High is just the beginning.
2nd try 50-50 Hollywood 16 and the first woman to step up to this infamous handrail. Roos Zwetsloot is part of the next generation of women pushing skateboarding to the next level. We can’t wait to see what she does next. 💪🏽🛹🐻 #GRIZZLYGANG 🇳🇱 pic.twitter.com/WNoBpCmXNF
