Virtual Exposure 2021 Video Winners

Exposure came in hot with its 10th annual event. Over 150 women, trans and nonbinary skaters from 14 countries threw their hats in the ring to be judged by  Elissa Steamer, Jaime Reyes, Alex White, Vanessa Torres and Amelia Brodka. Core Hydration presented this year’s video part contest that included a hearty $55,000 prize purse. On top of kicking down cash to the hardest rippers, Exposure also raised funds for the Community Resource Center’s Domestic Violence Shelter. Throw a couple bucks to the mission while you’re here. The finalists were announced with a premiere at La Paloma Theatre in Encinitas, and now you can watch all the winners on this very page. Enjoy it and go to Exposure Skate for the rest of the videos.
