    Face Time video with Marisa Dal Santo

    By Mike Sinclair

    Published Tuesday March 8, 2011


    Mike SinclairMarisa Dal Santo may just be the toughest woman in skateboarding.

    Marisa Dal Santo, the five-time X Games medalist, is arguably the gnarliest woman on a skateboard these days. Although her peers, including Elissa Steamer, Lacey Baker and Alexis Sablone, are all talented in their own right, Marisa is the only one who's put down a heavy full video part in the last few years (in Zero's "Strange World") which received a standing ovation at its premiere.

    Recovering from an injury and putting in work at the Black Box warehouse when she's not putting in time on the board, Marisa is just gathering steam for her next move. We caught up with her recently for a little Face Time. Full video interview after the jump.
