50-50 up the rail at Duó!

The first time I saw someone skating a spot the oposite way was Brandon Westgate in his Stay Gold part. That whole video was amazing and that part was gnarly. Ever since then I became a big fan of skating things the wrong way, and even though it's not always entirely possible, sometimes it works out.

This last wednesday I was skating the local park and it was the birthday of Duda Oliveira, she's a sick young skater who has been evolving like crazy, travelling to skate contests, filming videoparts, the whole deal. With the help of her sponsors she organized a Best Trick Session to celebrate while giving it to the comunity.

During the last Best Trick we were skating the Double Set and I got all fired up to try this Frontside 50-50 up the rail. Always thought about the possibility but to go and try is a whole other thing. There was only a couple minutes left as I started trying, and I couldn't land on time to make it count, but still landed it anyway!

(Unsupported )

I was so stoked and all the homies there were stoked too!

Now I need a street spot to go up. If you got any (in Rio preferably haha) send it my way!!

^^this one is also epic!!
