Alexis Sablone’s story is unlike any other in skateboarding. From Boston’s early 2000s scene and her breakout part in PJ Ladd’s Wonderful Horrible Life, to earning a degree in architecture and stepping away from the spotlight, Alexis always did things her own way. Her return to skating led to turning pro, competing at the highest level, and helping open the door for a new era of women in skateboarding.
This is her story.

Alexis Sablone | Red Bull SŌLUS 2021 Entry
Ryan Sheckler has once again opened the doors to his skatepark and invited 17 of the world’s most well-rounded skateboarders to battle it out in year two of Red Bull SŌLUS. Each skater has one hour to put together their best line at The Sandlot; no crowd, no other skaters, no distractions – just an internal battle to get the best line possible.
Possibly the smartest skater in the Solus contest, Alexis Sablone has two master’s degrees to go along with her 20 plus year career in the skate spotlight. She is a legend of street skateboarding that commands the respect from the core group of the anti-contest skaters, while still being able to have that same audience cheer her on while she competes in the recent Tokyo Olympics. That’s the range all skaters want.
Alexis skates for Alltimers, Converse, Orchard Skate Shop, Thunder, and Dialtone.
Judges Vanessa Torres, Mike Sinclair, and Jason Rothmeyer will evaluate each video based on style, progression and creativity. Following the judges announcement, you will have a chance to vote on your favorite video part and the fan favorite will be announced on October 20th.
Converse CONS One Star Pro Alexis Sablone 2020
To release the Alexis Sablone One Star Pro, Alexis has directed a donation to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. The contribution is part of Converse’s four-year commitment to support Black communities.
On the importance of the donation as she releases her latest signature shoe, Alexis says:
“This project was conceived of months ago, but with all of the changes we’ve been experiencing, it feels like a lifetime. I originally thought I might be wearing these in Tokyo next month—I looked forward to that as a potentially life-changing moment for me. But today, as people from coast to coast stand up together for equality, to end racism and make this country a better place, it feels like a life changing moment for us all”. – Alexis
