New Drop In Podcast episode alert! We're thrilled to feature the incredible #chuffedcrew member @eshna.g (she/her) in this episode filled with laughter. Eshna shared insights into her unique approach to street roller skating, drawing inspiration from  other activities such as parkour, skateboarding, blading and jam skating....And how rotating in between activities avoids her getting stuck in a funk. 
She tells us about quitting her full time job to pursue her personal goals, and how she’d ultimately like her skating to look like art  (which, in our opinion, it already does). Tune in to hear more about this super creative skater!
