Rayssa Leal Makes History on Rolling Stone Brasil Cover
@Instagram.com/rollingstonebrasil

April Skateboards professional skateboarder Rayssa Leal is now on the cover of Rolling Stone Brasil.

The 18-year-old from Imperatriz has been busy skating hard in the streets and winning skate contests.

From skating as a little kid wearing a tutu dress while heelflipping stairs in Brazil to standing on Olympic podiums, she keeps leveling up and still acts like the same humble girl who fell in love with her board years ago.

She already has four Super Crown titles and an Olympic medal, but this cover hits different.

It shows how far she has come, not just as a skater but as a young woman growing up in front of the world.

Rolling Stone Brasil shared a story about her childhood, saying that when she was young she saw a shooting star and made a wish to live from skateboarding and change her family’s life.

That little wish turned into real life. Now she is traveling the world, stacking wins, and still keeping her feet planted while she keeps flying across the concrete.

Fans who want to tap in can pre-order the special edition through the Rolling Stone Brasil virtual store and grab the print copy while it is available.

Rolling Stone Brasil Posted:

"Rayssa Leal conta que, ainda criança, viu uma estrela cadente e fez um pedido: “Viver do skate e mudar a vida da sua família”. Este instante de sonho não foi apenas a visão do rastro de um meteoro no céu, mas o encontro simbólico de um desejo da menina de Imperatriz que conquistaria o mundo. Capa da Rolling Stone Brasil, a tetracampeã do Super Crown e medalhista olímpica, agora aos 18 anos, olha para seu caminho com orgulho e mantém os pés no chão para seguir voando nas pistas.
