Skateboarding career

As a young skater in South Florida, Domond began an email exchange with skateboard filmmaker Bill Strobeck.[2] She began sending him short clips of her skating, which Strobeck started showing to other skaters including Jason Dill.[2] Domond gradually gained a fanbase within a small community of professional skateboarders, mostly based in NYC.[2] Through the support of Jason Dill and Bill Strobeck, Beatrice got on Fucking Awesome's skate team.[2] Beatrice received her first box from FA in September, 2013.[4] In May 2018, Dill officially put Beatrice on the FA team as a sponsored amateur.[4]
