Yumi just graduated from high school and is looking forward to her studies in Kinesiology and Education at York University. She is a young woman of many passions, but currently skateboarding comes first. It's played a huge part in maintaining confidence and self-belief during the challenging times of being a teen during a pandemic.

When she was her little sister Lucy's (below) age, Yumi got a lot of experience as an entrepreneur running her baking business called Yumi's Dozen. She is now leveling up her skills to this endeavour.

Yumi has experience working in several part time jobs, the most pertinent being as a Camp Counselor at the York Region District School Board's Summer Institute. There, she has gained great experience planning instruction, collaborating with peers and educators, and delivering great Summer Camp programs for elementary aged youth.

Royan is Yumi and Lucy's dad. He is an educator in the York Region District School Board. Royan started skateboarding because he was so inspired by his daughters. Though his skills have a long way to go and pale in comparison to his own daughters', he loves skateboarding nonetheless.

Davina is a high school student with some of the sickest no complies around. She has a background in soccer and it really shows in her footwork. When she's not skating, you might find Davina eating her fave Korean chicken stew called samgyetang. She hopes to someday work in the behavioural sciences with animals.

Izzy lights up every room (and skatepark) she steps into. She loves eating her nonna's amazing focaccia bread, listening to 90s indie and grunge music, and playing volleyball. Her biggest pet peeve is when people get in the way when she's trying to cook in the kitchen.
