Woman skateboarder BLASTS Red Bull for letting biological male dominate women in competition
"A biological man with a clear advantage won the women’s division, best trick, and also won multiple qualifiers. This took away the opportunity that was meant for women to place and earn money."
Skateboarder Taylor Silverman took to Instagram on Wednesday to call out Red Bull for allowing a biological male to compete against female athletes at a recent skate contest.
In the post, Silverman issued her statement on the matter, and also included an email she sent to Red Bull Senior Sports Marketing Manager Erich Dummer.
"I am a female athlete. I have been skateboarding for eleven years and competing for several years. I have been in three different contests with trans women, two of which I placed second. At the last contest series I did for Redbull, I placed second," said Silverman.
She explained that at that contest, "the trans competitor who won took $1000 dollars in qualifiers, $3000 in finals, and $1000 in best trick. This totaled to $5000 of the prize money meant for the female athletes. I took $1000 in qualifiers and $1750 for second place, so $2750 in total. The girl who took third received $750. The girl who deserved $1000 for best trick took nothing along with whoever would have placed third."
