Kick Flip Signing With L.D. Lapinski and Logan Hanning

We're elated to welcome L.D. Lapinksi and Logan Hanning to the shop celebrating the release of their skater comic-of-age comic, Kick Flip! The pair will be grinding rails straight through our doors on Saturday 21st June 2025, from 1-2pm. Here's what the publishers say about the book:

School girl. Skater boy. What if neither label fits? A poignant LGBTQ+ graphic novel about self-discovery, skateboarding and finding your true community of friends, perfect for fans of Heartstopper.

At school, Elliot gets bullied for being 'different to other girls' whereas at the skate park, everyone welcomes Elliot - presuming they're male - but neither label feels right.

As Eliot's love of skateboarding and friendships grow, their worlds collide at a sports expo where the school netball team and skate crew are competing. Can Elliot find the courage to share what they've learned about non-binary identity? Will best friend Jess or the skateboarding crew accept Elliot for who they are? And what about Ryan, the skater who Elliot has been feeling increasingly close to?

L.D. and Logan will behere signing copies of Kickflip on Saturday 21st June, from 1pm. You can pre-order a signed copy from our website for mail-order or collection by clicking the link here.
