Another setback for women’s rights – Trans skateboarder beats young girls in competition

Tres said he didn’t want to increase estrogen levels or lower testosterone any further, in order to qualify for the next Olympics

Newsroom July 4 10:18

In yet another setback for real girls and women, a 29-year-old biological male, who identifies as female, won a women’s skateboarding competition, The Boardr Open in New York City.

Ricci Tres, who also goes by the name Ricci And Tres, served in the Navy and is the father of three children. Tres was the oldest contestant in the event, beating second-place finisher Shiloh Catori, age 13.

Catori has a global ranking of 133, while Tres is ranked 838. Taking third was 16-year-old Jordan Pascale, and 28-year-old Chrissy Brown placed 4th.

According to DailyMail.com, Tres attempted to enter the Women’s Street USA Skateboarding National Championships in 2021, to gain points to qualify for the Olympics, but he was rejected because of testosterone levels that were too high.

USA Skateboarding reported that before being disqualified in that championship, Tres “qualified first in the Open Qualifiers and would have moved on to the Quarterfinals.”

In a video interview at USA Skateboarding, Tres said he didn’t want to increase estrogen levels or lower testosterone any further, in order to qualify for the next Olympics. He cited the health risks that come with these medical interventions, such as strokes, heart attacks, and blood clots.
