Skateboarder Amber Clyde's journey as skating solo mum

From Afternoons, 1:45 pm on 24 March 2023

A few years ago now we spoke to skateboarder Amber Clyde.

After entering the male-dominated world of skateboarding as a kid, Amber founded Girls Skate NZ, which offer free classes for young girls keen to give skateboarding a go.

She was recently featured in a documentary published by The Spinoff called 'Back on the Board'.

It chronicles her rebuilding confidence in skating as a solo mum.

We thought it was a perfect opportunity to catch up with Amber.
