Athletes Speak Out

Angelo Caro (Peru), silver medalist, praised both the competition and the hospitality:

“I’m happy to have gotten second place and to have skated with my friends. It’s a very well-organized event, and ever since I arrived from my country up until now, they’ve treated us very well: with the flight, tickets, food, attention. I was feeling very comfortable and happy to want to come back here. Moscow is a very beautiful city. Honestly, I think it exceeded my expectations. The people also have very good vibes, and that has motivated us to be able to skate well and do the tricks that you are going to be able to see. And without a doubt, I would come back, you know? I’m already waiting anxiously for the next Grand Skate Tour. I hope it happens much more often, and if it’s possible, like they said today, for it to be twice a year.”

Matias Dell Olio (Argentina), bronze medalist, highlighted the festival’s unique community spirit:

“Um, third place at GST 2025. Ah, man. I’ve been coming here since the first one. I’m really happy to be a part of the GST family because I’ve been skating around the world for the last 10, 15 years, and I can say that GST is more than a skateboarding contest. It’s a big family that’s united together, here in Moscow this time.

The values and, you know, the perspective they bring to all the skaters, taking care of the skaters, and teaching them things, teaching them how to do stuff… All the programs that we have and in simple words, it’s the best event in the world, hands down. I’ve been to Street League, I’ve been to X Games, I’ve been to World Skate events. This is totally different. This is for the people. This is by skaters, for skaters. So I think that’s the most important part of, you know, GST: that we are a big family. Everyone enjoys it, and if you’ve never come, please do come in 2026.”
