Meeting up with Jamie Foy at Street League | MUNDO GUSTAVO EP5

Welcome back to Mundo Gustavo, our fly-on-the wall show keeping pace with the hectic lifestyle of Portuguese skate sensation Gustavo Ribeiro as he juggles filming commitments, contests and injuries during the most important year of his life to date.
Episode 5 sees Gustavo touch down in Los Angeles with his brother and wingman Gabriel ahead of a huge contest in neighbouring Arizona.

Working out the jetlag and tired muscles at the famous Chevy Chase skatepark- which you might recognise from our Skatepark Review series- the boys link up with fellow European pro Vincent Milou before heading out on a 5-hour road trip to beautiful Lake Havasu for Street League, one of the biggest skate event series of the year.

A chance meeting with Deathwish pro Jamie Foy leads to a post-contest invite to take a powerboat ride out onto the lake to go bass fishing in one of those ‘time out of time’ moments skateboarding can present at top-flight level, but eventually the sun drops below the horizon and it it time to say goodbye to old friends and fast times.

The boys undertake the long road back to LA for a visit to Red Bull’s own physical therapy centre to work on some core strength routines and rehabilitate Gustavo’s injured shoulder.
With his shoulder feeling better by the day, Gustavo and his brother hit the world famous LA Courthouse ledges along with Madars Apse to complete an American road trip saga familiar to generations of skaters before him.

Join us next time out on another whistle-stop instalment from the life of a pro skater in their fast-moving prime as Mundo Gustavo keeps on turning!

Behind The Scenes: 2021 RED BULL PARIS CONQUEST

The challenge of live broadcasting is that we can only show you the business-end of what are usually a full few days of drama, entertainment and other skateboarding-related tomfoolery.

Some people rip in practice, but get unlucky in their runs. Some put down a single ridiculous hammer out of nowhere as soon as they turn up, but get taken out by a heel bruise, or somebody else’s board, straight after: that’s just the nature of the skating game. Friendships- and even the occasional rivalry- are rekindled, and new shared experiences become permanent memories of peak times. Red Bull Paris Conquest was no exception.

Taking place as the contest did slap-bang in the middle of Paris during late August 2021, there were side-missions and culture- sampling galore, as well as some insane practice sessions on the unique street course which replicated a half-dozen or so of Paris’ most famous contributions to skateable urban architecture.

Enjoy our deep dive into the first big, global post-Olympics skate contest, as we bring you behind the scenes of Red Bull Paris Conquest!

Rayssa Leal, Nyjah Huston & More: JUST THE FISHEYE SHOTS | SLS Utah 2021

Street League's Salt Lake City Finals went off last weekend, and we had the ultra-precise stylings of Chase Gabor there to capture all the action. He put together this rad edit of some of the prelim skating, Men's and Women's, but Chase wanted to make sure we mentioned that he always stays a little farther away from the skaters when he's filming—you know, so as not to distract them… It can be pretty intimidating when THE Chase Gabor (of the Chicago Gabors) is filming your tricks. Good job, Chase!

Queen and King of Paris: Leticia Bufoni and Trevor McClung | RED BULL PARIS CONQUEST

Red Bull Paris Conquest was the rowdiest contest in recent memory, bringing new obstacle layouts, a head-to-head eliminator format and new energies to Paris’ Trocadero right at the foot of the Eiffel Tower today.

We should naturally begin by congratulating Trevor McClung and Leticia Bufoni for being crowned the king and queen of Paris respectively, but a widening of the lens will show a superb event with a strong local showing and a raucous throng of a crowd who clearly had their favourites and let them know who they were.

Certainly high among those was TJ Rogers, who has made himself no end of new friends in the city over the last few days and delivered a clinic in buttery ledge tech and showcased what is undeniably the best switch frontside 360 ollie in the game. His consistency and trick bag were enough for fourth place but could have placed him higher had he not been drawn in the semi’s against Aurelien Giraud who would have won had he not broken three boards with that stupendous power of his, meaning he effectively skated the semi-finals and finals on several borrowed boards. He would be wise to bring a quiver of identical set-ups going forward. Nonetheless, he remarkably managed to power his way to second with a repertoire of big block hammers, transition wonders and a hardlflip late kickflip unseen outside of Youtube and in the wild. The man he beat into third was crowd favourite Vincent Milou who has seemingly become the most popular skater in France over the last year. He also snapped a board against TJ Rogers in the run-off for third, but TJ showed a lot of class by not trying to seize the advantage while Vincent sorted out a new board against the buzzer. By contrast Trevor McClung managed to hold onto enough moves like a switch backside 360 down the Bercy 5 block without needing timeouts and held on for first place.

If pole position was closely contested for the men’s contest, it was less so for the women’s. Leticia Bufoni demonstrated some of the strength in depth that marks out her talent by powering through to first place mixing the ability to go big with a consistency that is truly remarkable. Unfortunately, Leticia’s scheduled final rival Aori Nishimura had to withdraw from competing after an ankle injury with her last trick of the semi-final having already secured a guaranteed second place, and so a spontaneous three-way skate-off was held to decide the rest of the final four positions.

This saw Leticia roll out against both the impressive and effervescent local Charlotte Hym who rode the crowd’s energy to an excellent third place and Argentina’s Eugenia Ginepro who used her transition skills to solid effect on the melting house and wave spots particularly and took a solid fourth place on what was a terrific platform for where the women’s event scene is headed in terms of calibre and skill level.

Many thanks to Flo, Jeremy Grynblat, Greg Poissonnier, Ben Powell, Etnies and all our friends in Paris for helping make this unique event go with the bang it surely did!
