Linking up with Brazil's newest Pro-skater Vitória Mendonça | SKATE TALES
Спорт
It is no great stretch to say that Vitória Mendonça is the modern face of skateboarding today.
Having just been turned professional by her board sponsor Element Skateboards at CPH Open 2023, she has the world at her feet- but it wasn’t always this way.
From a humble background in Rio de Janeiro, her skating ability has raised her up to become one of the most visible girls in the worldwide sponsorship game today. Moreover, she has also parlayed her talent into a successful parallel career as a model.
Nobody writes scripts for life stories like hers in a world where young black women can face all kinds of prejudice. From the tough streets of urban Brazil to being nominated as Thrasher’s Skater Of The Year 2022, Vitoria is living proof that skateboarding is a dream factory.

A Vitória é muiiito foda.. Anda muito, representa muito e é uma mulher muito kabulosa... Não se vendeu aos grandes campeonatos... Super autêntica!!! ❤👏🏽🇧🇷🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Brasil o país do skate!!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Authentic underground style vibes!
E imaginar que conheci a Vitória quando ela tinha 13 anos, andando no Bowl do parque de Madureira, de capacete amarelo. Dá orgulho de ver porque acompanhei parte da trajetória dela, quando ela era anônima.
Guess I'll have to take an 18min pause on the job today
How nice is this guy too!!! what a weapon
In the 40 years I skate Brazil has always been a top skate country. Good to see new generations keeping it alive.

Please please someone tell me what that black “airbrushed” t-chart Victoria is wearing! Good girl!
Fuck yeah, Roosevelt Plaza, my old spot. And answering the question, people have been skating there since the early 90s, so yeah 30 years.

Amazing
Holy shit she rocks, maders rocks, this rocks
👏🏻🔥🛹❤️🇧🇷👊🏻
Thank u Red Bull
I can’t find anywhere that they are doing it so far but. There flat out needs to be a men’s soty and a women’s soty. Period.
Trust Brazil to make skateboarding everything it can be. Happy police joining in, rural queers coming together, it's all under the banner of the board. Looks like heaven from here.
Respeita as minas Igualdade para todas
=)
Madars forgot to ask her what skateboarding means to her 😮
Might just be my perspective, but me as a Dutch queer skater, feel like the Latin American countries have way more visibility for female skaters, I wish Europe was more open to this as well. But please, correct me if I’m wrong
Soty
skateboarding has always been inclusive, piss off with this noise. red bull is turning into trash.

No it hasn't,you live in a bubble. Blacks and women have been sharing their stories for years. YOU just didn't want to hear
Good but the roll away is not smooth enough to be skating for that long

It's not a video part she's just having fun in her neighborhood. Check her actual parts she's a beast
It's cool to watch women skate. But why can they do the most minimal grinds, Or tricks and people are blown away? Like they are killing it? Why do they get a pass. Even from Elisa steamer? They are all good. But they do less than any man skateboarding. And get recognition. She's good. Real good. But she has more potential than she shows. She spends 2 seconds on a hub or a rail. I have done all of this. And haven't even been sponsored. But she's recognized fro thrasher? Blows my fucjin mind.

Skateboarding is not only about tricks man. Also, women on skateboard is very recent compared to men's you can see the level has grown a lot through the years. I'm sorry you think that way, that is also the reason you're not sponsored
I dont think its fair shes being given special treatment just because shes a woman
