What was the first trick you ever landed? And how did you feel?

My first trick was the ollie. I felt incredibly happy and fulfilled. At that moment, it was like love at first sight—pure feeling.

Which skate spot do you like the most?

Quadrespra, because it’s the perfect DIY spot made by skateboarders.

What trick do you do first just for fun?

The tre flip, better known as the 360 flip.

If you could skate anywhere in the world, where would it be?

China, because of the unique aesthetics of the spots there.

What was the silliest time you fell off your skateboard?

Pushing drunk with my friends.

Have you ever been kicked out of a spot?

In 2023, we got kicked out of a spot in Barcelona by the police. They wanted to take our skateboards and filming equipment because we were riding in a prohibited area. Luckily, after a long conversation, they let us go and warned us that next time they’d take everything.
