In addition to the new title, the young skateboarder is three -time league champion and twice Olympic medalist
He confirmed his favoritism and won the title in the third stage of the Street League Skateboarding (SLS), held on Sunday (13), on the Esplanade of Ministries, in. With a solid and accurate performance, the 17 -year -old Maranhense finished the final with 21.8 points, almost eight points ahead of the second place, Gabriela Mazetto, who added 14.
The innovative format of the competition, called “Spot Takeover”, dismissed complete laps on the track, giving the athletes seven athletes to perform their best maneuvers, with the three highest notes computed for the final score – 30 points was the maximum possible note.
Rayssa showed balance and creativity, dominating the dispute from the first maneuvers and imposing a strong pace that no opponents could achieve. “It was really cool. I am happy to honor my family and have this support from the fans. It’s another championship at home, another trophy. I surpassed my fear on this track,” said the young Maranhão, celebrating the achievement before the public.
The stage in Brasilia brought together big names in the world skate, but it was the young Brazilian who shone before the public. The victory reinforces Rayssa’s position as one of the main references of Skate Street and the new generation of sport.
In addition to the title at SLS, Rayssa is a three -time league champion and twice Olympic medalist. The victory in Brasilia also has special meaning because it is on Brazilian soil, with the federal capital receiving for the first time this stage of the circuit.
