About Gui Khury

Gui Khury was born to be a phenomenon in the sport and, from an early age, life brought him a skateboard. Since he was 5 years old, he has been showing skills and courage to face “big people” tricks. Today, at the age of 14, the prodigy child holds unprecedented wins. Gui has 3 world records certified and published by the Guinness Book and is one of the great names in the men’s skateboarding scene.

In July 2021, he made history by being the first skater to complete, in a championship, the 1080° – three complete spins in the air – on a vertical ramp, and the youngest athlete to win a gold medal at the X Games, the biggest and most respected extreme sports competition. He holds five X Games medals in total. Gui Khury was also called up for the first time to join the Brazilian Junior Skate Team and represent the country in the 2022 and 2023 seasons, being one of the big names to seek a spot in the Olympic Games in Paris 2024.
