[@bezelyesevenordek]

they are just pick me girls, they are one out of 20, hard to find. even at the spot that they recorded this video, i dont see much of girl skaters. probably they can't even do ollies or even if they were good skaters, they quited. but when i see girl skaters around, theyre newcomers and need friends to skate but the problem is a girl skater is hard to find so they probably get exhausted skating alone. anyway, i gotta say that skateboarding is not popular in turkey. also in istanbul, streets have rough ground, not well designed so it makes skateboarding even harder. of course there are skate spots but they are hard to find and they are in the districts that are well designed and the buildings in there are so new, so modern design of streets and buildings give better concrete to skate on and also much better skatespots. i can tell Ataşehir and Kurtköy have good skate spots, other districts are so old that you can't even find a good concrete so skate on. also industrial estates have beautiful skate spots but you will get kicked out immediately.
