11 years old video, but sharing it because we don't see downhill slide tricks that often. A shame really, they look sweet. Dancing at full speed.

This is a short documentary about the untold story of Sergio Yuppie's humble beginnings in the skateboarding world. From being just a kid with a dream on the streets of Brazil to becoming an international skateboard icon, Sergio remains true to his purpose in life - skateboarding for the pure love of it.

We celebrate a life driven by passion and adversity - a rags to riches story where wealth is not measured by monetary value. Here's a living, breathing example of the goals that you can achieve, no matter how big you dream. This is the story of Sergio Yuppie.

Rules:

  1. โœ… Post relevant to skateboarding.
  2. ๐Ÿ’ข Don't act unethically or in bad faith. E.g., no ad hominem arguments, no plain juvenile behaviour to belittle others.
  3. ๐Ÿšซ No posts that link to Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, or any other corporate billionaire-owned society-eroding cesspools. YouTube is "fine", for now.

Suggestions:

  1. Please use post tags if you can, because filtering posts via the tag cloud is quite convenient.
