— -- Brighton Zeuner, an 11-year-old skateboarder in Encinitas, California, chooses her playlist wisely. Music is mandatory for her skate sessions -- and she has a sign hanging in her room that explains the mood she's trying to capture: "Good Vibes Only."

Zeuner, who regularly competes in women's pro divisions, will compete in the X Games on June 4 in the women's skateboard park event. As the youngest female to be invited in 22 years, Zeuner is inspiring other girls in her sport.

It's no surprise that her jams reflect a girl power theme. Take "Blazin'" by Nicki Minaj. "It's like, girl's rule. She's proud of her stuff," Zeuner says. Feeling constricted by her seatbelt in the car, Zeuner almost breaks out and dances when explaining her love for Beyonce's "7/11." Then she remembers "Flawless" is also a favorite, for the message it spreads to all girls: "Instead of saying, 'I'm flawless,' she says, 'Ladies tell 'em ... I want everyone to feel like this.'"

For Zeuner, there's nothing like skating in the SoCal sun while blasting music. "Borderline" by Tove Styrke reminds her of Encinitas, and why she fell in love with skateboarding in the first place. When she listens to it, she envisions her friends and family, skating together, all enjoying the moment.

She shared her whole playlist, full of plenty of good vibes.
