I went to Brazil a month ago on a youth exchange and realized how big skate culture is there. Skate parks are common skate shows are broadcasted and they’re hubs for hanging out at. Most teens I met at schools told me how much skating has impacted them. It’s honestly so cool.

[@Becky4698]

And now she got second place in the Olympics. Crazy to see a 13 year old win the silver medal but I'm truly happy for her!

[@123amsterdan456]

And 3 SLS back to back, including Super Crown. She is one the greatest

[@thbwdzzz5010]

and now she's prob the goat of women's skate

[@thefastaction8717]

Fully invested in watching this girl succeed and take over. So focused and talented.

[@gladiluchina]

You were right,2 Years ago !she got silver medal in Tokyo olimpic games !shes an amazing skater !!!!

[@ludekasmedia]

This month at age 14 she became a PRO SKATER, amazing how far she can go

[@Dechral]

that is the coolest shit, surprising her at the Berrics. Good stuff skate gods.

[@dabesaroundnstuff920]

There is but one True GOD If you cant admit that, then its prolly why you cant switch flip like a boss

[@sirreoser5668]

I loved how she jumped straight onto her board checking out every obstacle in the park, no hesitation. Reminded me of the simpler times when I use to skate.

Brazilians have so much heart, no matter what sport or hobby they do, theyre always some of the best at it whether it be Skating, Surfing, Mixed Martial Arts, Soccer or anything else theyre just straight machines. I admire the heart and motivation of Brazilians so much.

When she walked into the berrics for the first time that got me

[@JazzMachine77]

Being Brazilian and have been skating since the 80's I always get amazed how talented skaters we have even though we never had that easy. International brands never came to Brazil back in the day and we had the create our own. The government didn't care about building skateparks we had to build our own ramps, boxes, rails. The streets are rough and hard to skate. All this problems contributed for the evolution of skateboarding in Brazil in some weird way, we had to be creative and skate in any terrain. I love to see new skaters like her coming up, getting more attention from the international media. If she continue like this she will go far and achieve great things!!

[@swetabhsingh9036]

She shreds so hard already. I'm curious to see how good she will be when she is around 17 or 18. I think we will be seeing a lot of her skating in the near future.

Absolutely nuts! Much respect to the Rayssa and Tulio. I hope all the joke of a "pro" female skaters take something away from seeing this vid or her in person shredding. Shes only 11 yet raised the bar exponentially higher for what female progression should be. Scrap all these poor excuses of pro female skaters and make Rayssa pro.

[@BGraves]

Forreal. These female pros are just taking a free ride in a fancy car. This girl is going to put them on the streets

Eterna Fadinha do Skate !!!

for anyone wondering, her name is pronounced hai-EE-suh LAY-ow. It sounds counter-intuitive, but the letter 'r' is pronounced as an 'h' in portuguese. and words ending in a vowel followed by an 'l' have a 'w' kind of sound. I minored in portuguese in college and highly recommend anyone to check it out along with brazilian culture in general

[@TheStrayK]

Nowadays is easier to be a skatergirl here in Brazil. When i was her age (29 years ago) was rare find girls skateboarding. We was called "sapatão" (something like tomboys), we didn't supported by our families or even sponsored by skateboard brands. I'm really glad to see how the brazilian female skaters are developing and pushing up the level of skateboard. Finally they are observed, admired and supported. I hope come back coming soon, even on female masters division.

[@JustWayve]

She just won SLS 🔥
