* Gui Khury is now a two-time champion of Mega Park at a skateboarding complex on his grandparents' grounds * Skaters repeat the podium of last year's edition, only this time, with Rony Gomes in second and Ítalo Penarrubia in third

Gui Khury is one of those hosts who welcomes friends, but always makes it clear that "in my house I command". As in last year's edition, the young prodigy of only 14 years did not give chances to the other skaters and won the double championship of Mega Park, the so-called Rampa do Gui, located in a large training complex built on the grandparents' land, in Campo Largo, Curitiba (PR).

In the final at the Greenbox, as the venue is known, each of the ten skaters was entitled to four descents, worth the highest score. And little did Gui know that his first descent would be just that of the title. And it was a painting. As he descended the 10-meter-high megaramp, he jumped the eight-meter span in a 720-degree turn. He landed on the other ramp, reaching a speed of more than 40 Km/h, climbed the opposite wall, completed the combo with the 900º maneuver and scored 87.67.

"It's always really cool to compete at our house and still be able to win another trophy. This one is another one of those that I will keep with great affection. I am very happy and wanted to take this opportunity to thank once again my sponsors, my family and all my friends who came to walk here and made this event a spectacle. Next year there is more," said Gui Khury, who received a standing ovation from the crowd.

Of all the friends, two of them repeated with Gui last year's podium, but in reversed positions. Third place in 2022, Rony Gomes, world champion of Vertical in 2013, this time secured the runner-up, with a score of 80.00 in his last attempt. And it was also on his fourth descent that Ítalo Penarrubia, who was the current runner-up of Mega Park, got the third place, with a score of 79.00, taking at the last minute from the podium the talented young Dan Sabino, 15 years old, who had a 78.00.

The Mega Park is a co-realization event of Greenbox with the STU Platform, and has the support of Garoto Chocolates, Red Bull, Oakley, Kalunga, Mini Kalzone and Ebanx.
