True skateboard essence! He fought to keep this place skateable. He helped avoid the City of São Paulo from completely destroying this historic skateboard spot in Brazil.
Everytime i go to Anhangabau i see this legend shredding those ledges with his combo tricks. Formiga is one of the most creative skaters i've ever seen.
If you ask any Brazilian skateboarder about him, like Luan de Oliveira, Rodrigo Tx, Bob Burnquist... they all know him. He is some of the people who make a living from skateboarding in Brazil. They promote the national market.
in 1997 i bought a Brazilian Skate Mag which came with the first skate tape i've ever had. His part absolutelly blew my mind, he changed the way I skated at the time. A legend
100% SP true street legend from way back. Dude is humble too. Ever since. We've crossed paths in several occasions and the man was always positive and he always killed them curbs, hubbas and ledges. BIG UP Formiga.
This guy is a legend, I remember when I started skating 18 years ago and my friends and I would watch his video parts before going out to skate. Always looking for creative ways to explore street spots. Nice filming as well, Mano! You’re having the best tasty of the Brazilian skateboarders, glad I can see them all on your channel.
Dude is sliding those ledges like he has cheat codes. That one wheel manual was actually so dope. If this is how the OGs skate in Brazil, I can only imagine what the up coming generation will be like.
@@AnaRebecaARog significa "original gangsta" que é um termo bastante utilizado no hiphop e outras culturas underground para dizer que alguém é da "velha guarda" ou "das antigas".
Formiga is a monstro skateboarder. He probably has wheels for breakfast. His humor is always highly happy and Fanny and his spirit full of peace and love. Long Live The King of Anhangabaú!
damn that guy did kill it, that spot reminds me of san francisco back in the 90s when all the good skate spots were still around. all the pros would all be skating, cool video
Sick spot, sick skater; a ledge legend😅 Also that spot reminds me a lot of the Love Park ledges from the Eastern Exposure days. As always thank you for sharing and keep up the good work!
Que naipe formiga o tempo passa e você tá cada vez melhor!!! Satisfaça total ter andado de skate com você quando morei em São Paulo, um abraço daqui de Portugal. ❤ Philippe Mosquito

Skaters already was talking about him in the 90's

What a character so much style, even in his voice and the way he talks, brazilian people are so stylish in general.
He is legendary for a reason
If Berrics had a ledge comp... as they should
4miga would win for sure !!!
Most likely
Existe o Slides and grinds, que é um game of skate só na borda. Inclusive o Formiga participou, já
