i really struggle to judge the age of people younger than me now. she looks about 14 but skates like she’s doing a demo for Flip in the early 2000s. goddamn

edit - she’s 13 and i’ve just realised it’s the heelflip fairy from years back. holy fuck balls she is insanely talented

I’ve seen her skate in the flesh a few times and it is truly stunning how good she is.
Amazing style too.
She will be a millionaire very soon.

I really hope she goes more Alexis Sablone and less Leticia Bufoni when she’s older.

She’s so fucking good.

She’s Brazilian remember, their culture and attitude to sport/success is very different from the American version.
Nike already have her as the face of loads of Brazilian female empowerment campaigns (not SB, bigger than that) so I’m sure she’ll have an agent etc already.

well these two comments certainly put a downer on that video. it’s unfortunately true. why can’t she just enjoy being great at skateboarding

My comment wasn’t meant negatively.
She is prodigiously talented, clearly loves skateboarding and will become rich from it.
Good

Oh yeah I completely get that. She just needs to link with Tiago for a few sessions that’s all

Maybe you’re thinking about Nyjah’s parents, and how they fell out and his dad kept all the footage and it fucked him up.

Or that three year-old slamming after being pushed around a park the other day.

Yeah definitely off the back of that insta shit the other day

There’s good people in the industry still who can look after a young kid on the up and up but invariably there’s still assholes looking to take advantage

Hopefully she has good people around her

Shecklers skate career was not exactly great either. The wonder kid who ended up being the Justin beiber of skating. Luckily he came out the other side Ok but fuck me he was exploited and it was cringe.
So naturally As skaters we don’t want repeats , especially in this time of social media , celebrity etc.
