Many Afghan Girls Are Not Allowed To Ride Bicycles (13 photo)

Skateistan, an innovative NGO in Kabul founded to empower Afghan children (and especially young girls), teaches children to skateboard as a gateway to get them more involved in education. In many Afghan communities, it is customary to forbid women from riding bicycles. Skateboarding, then, becomes an empowering activity that gives these girls a source of physical exercise, empowerment, and some plain and simple fun.

Momentum In Dust (8 photo)

My name is Tomas Januska and recently I’ve photographed downhill skateboarders doing slides with dust. Some of these photos won various photo contests. Movement means a lot to me. Therefore, in this photo series I wanted to capture extreme sport riders in the sliding moment while joining movement with dust. The aim of this was to capture the technicality of the sliding movement, something that is also shown in races but differently.
