Learning to skate with your mum tends to be something that applies when you’re a kid, but in the case of Britt and Kaz it happened when they were 30 and 56.
Two years have now gone by and they are both hooked. They now have a considerable following on instagram as @2girlssk8
Britt says of her mum Kaz:
“I got my first kick flip because of my mum, and I still tell myself something she tells me. The phrase she said to me was ‘knees up buttercup’ because I just wasn’t bringing my knees up. So now in my head I’ve just got ‘knees up buttercup, knees up buttercup’.”
The conversation is full of energy and a commitment to help each other learn, which is really magical and beautiful to listen in on.

- Getting in to skating together as adults and as a mum and daughter duo.
