US skater Kelly Dunn joins Nikita

Nikita is happy to announce Kelly Dunn to the Nikita family. Kelly, 17, is a skateboarder born and raised in Ledyard, CN. She enjoys pushing around Groton skatepark but has ambitions to travel and skate anywhere she can.

When she’s not skating she loves playing the drums and has an obsession with collecting anything to do with the Beatles. Recently she’s been teaching skate lessons to young kiddos and hopes to instruct at an all girl’s skate camp this summer.

How does Kelly feel about joining the Nikita team?

“So, so, so super stoked. It’s such an awesome opportunity for me and I’m excited to represent and ride for the company to the fullest!”

And how does Nikita feel about adding Kelly to the team?

“It’s awesome. Kelly is super communicative and a rad young lady. It’s great to have another sweet skateboard girl on the team out there. I look forward to working with her and helping her achieve her goals and making sure she’s having fun”, says Nikita’s US Marketing Manager, Kelly Stoecklein.

Keep your eyes out for this new skate talent.
