🔗Light Session at Ghandi Square with Juarez and Vlad

I caught eye of a spot that @alexandrefeliz showed me one time driving home. it was a plaza type spot with DIY elements. Thinking back now, @alexandrefeliz showed me this spot one of the first days when we were in a taxi, he said its super dangerous at night. @alexandrefeliz said the same thing, that we were going to get mugged here if we kept skating after the sun went down.

🔗The Nounstacle 2.0

The Nounstacle 2.0 in RJ, Brasil was presented by Skatehive and Gnars DAO was such a amazing vibe! It was really special to witness a project I had loosely followed come to life, seeing Pharra pull off the build of this beautiful new obstacle, which weighs a ton, and actually manage to get it all the way to Praça Mauá, placing it in a spot that feels like it’s always belonged there.

🔗Pump track follow run

Once again I am sharing this photo because it gives me hope for what is yet to come for 2025. The skate season is upon us in the Northern hemisphere and we all took advantage of one of the first nice weekends of the year. Huge turnout at the season opener session that I called. We had up to 18 skaters and even a few bikers joined us. This pump track is an absolute blast and has been the best one to skate in our region... so far!!

🔗LET´S FUCKING GO, GIRL

"We’re a bunch of badass girls ready to hit the road and ride the asphalt, turning all those overwhelming feelings into something stronger... anger becomes courage, sadness turns into passion, and loneliness into sisterhood."

🔗SKATEBOARDING: OUR TOOL TO SEE THE WORLD IN A DIFFERENT WAY

Skateboarding is much more than just a sport; it's a way of life, an artistic expression, and, above all, a powerful tool that allows us to see the world from a different perspective. Through the board, we explore not only the streets, but also our creativity, our emotions, and our connections with others.
