Zion Furegato

Touching down to Earth from somewhere unknown, Zion Furegato is ushering in a new level of skateboarding for the next generation to aspire to. In a world where backside smiths, backside hurricanes and backside 180 nosegrinds are simple warm-up tricks that must be flipped or spun into and out of, Zion is clearly a specimen from another planet. That planet is Brazil, specifically São Paulo, and although his skills may seem alien for someone of his age and size, he has proven that anything is possible if you have the right motivation. Despite being relatively unknown and underage, Zion slapped together a submission to the Video Qualifier Series that earned him an invitation to skate in the 2026 Rockstar Energy Open in Portland, Oregon to properly introduce himself to the entire skateboard industry.
