General
MOVE TO THE UNITED STATES
Although he began competing in skateboarding at a young age, he did not neglect his studies and after finishing high school he began studying physical education at university. However, he ultimately found that he did not have enough time to dedicate to sport and study, so he left university in 2019 and moved to the United States of America to pursue professional skateboarding. "The teachers at university wanted me to be good at sports I had never done. I wanted to be graded for skateboarding, not badminton. And with all the skate competitions, I did not really have time to do any work. The school wasn't very flexible; they didn't really understand what I was doing." (redbull.com, 17 Jun 2021)
