Friday, February 17, 2023
Recent results at World Skate give more brightness to the first stage of the STU National in Criciúma for Brazilian skaters. There is just a week until the opening of the Brazilian calendar for this sport that became an Olympic discipline in Tokyo. There are already 120 confirmed skaters.

The 2023 season started lively and promisingly for brazilian skateboarding. At the World Championships in the UAE, Brazil won gold with Rayssa Leal in Street and, the following week, silver with Augusto Akio and bronze with Pedro Barros in Park. Results that give an extra shine to the Stage of upcoming Criciúma STU National, on the national circuit, which opens the calendar of competitions in the country. You can be sure of a lot of technique, plasticity, flights and maneuvers in the next two weeks in the city of Santa Catarina.

For the third consecutive year, STU National will begin with Criciúma, on the modern slopes of the Prefeito Altair Guidi Municipal Park. The first week in the Brazilian coal capital will be dedicated to street, from February 23 to 26, with 77 skaters already enrolled, 13 in the female and 64 in the male. In the second week, from March 2 to 5, it will be the turn of the Park modality, so far with 43 confirmed athletes (16 women and 27 boys). The novelty is that the city, this year, will also receive the stage of Paraskate.

Remember that the stages of STU National are worth maximum score in the Brazilian ranking. Last year, in Criciúma, Rayssa Leal and Lucas Rabelo started in front in the 2022 title fight in Street, and Raicca Ventura and Luiz Francisco, Luizinho, in Park. At the end of the season, after the competition also passed through Porto Alegre (RS) and Recife (PE), the national champions were Gabi Mazetto and João Lucas Alves (Street) and Raicca Ventura and Luiz Francisco (Park).

"Criciúma entered the national calendar for good. The skaters and all lovers of this sport already look forward to this stage. The tracks are amazing, something very important for us to hold an event of this size. Few places in the country have a complex like this, which has everything to reveal new talents for Brazilian and world skateboarding. And once again, we will have the best skaters in Brazil and some also in the world, which we are very proud of", said João Victor, executive manager of STU.

Another novelty for this year is the URB Music Tour, a festival that will shake Brazilian cities along with STU National. Starting with Criciúma, with names like Natiruts, Flora Matos, musician and singer Beto Cardoso, representing the local scene, in addition to DJ Tamenpi, who signs the musical curatorship. The STU has always had this vision beyond skateboarding, adding the urban culture in its competitions, which has always included an extensive and diverse schedule of shows, DJs and exhibitions. Now, innovate with the creation of this festival that will follow the national stages of the year.
