Pro Skateboarder and first female skateboarder to be sponsored by Supreme, Beatrice Domond talks with NYLON about her always-skate-ready beauty routine.
only went pro in 2022, but she’s already made history. First gaining popularity by posting lo-fi, self-made tapes on social media, she’s now earned partnerships with some of the biggest skate brands in the business: Domond was the first Black female Vans team rider to havein 2023 and became the first female skateboarder sponsored by Supreme in 2018.
Although she grew up skating in Florida, Domond didn’t find her skateboarding community until she moved to New York eight years ago; she credits her dad, who spent his childhood in the city, for influencing her move. Her new home also led to a partnership with Supreme, a brand she’s worked with since 2014 when she performed a trick — a no-comply impossible — in. While skateboarding is her primary focus, Domond is also a visual artist working on a solo art show, which will debut this summer.

The first time I skated was just me pushing it around the house.When I was going into high school I started thinking about what I wanted to do with my life.
