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.
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.

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
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.
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!
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
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!
OMG! I can’t believe I’m in The Skate Nomad Channel with 4Miga the King of Valley and all the Downta Crew 🙏✨🛹 Thank you so much Mike for the sessions the vibe and for the visit my friend that was amazing ✨⚒️🛹🥷👊
@@whycamucwatuwant in this video or my videopart? I was lucky and did some maneuvers that day, like the kickflip back noseblunt on the lil bank and the switch boneless 180 in the stairs after 4miga sw bs noseslide to gap… thanks for the comment bro 👊 have a blessed weekend 🛹🙏
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.
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
Grande Formiga, um dos maiores skatistas do Brasil, uma lenda viva Estou curtindo muito os teus vídeos no Brasil, se conseguir descer pro Rio Grande do Sul, vai encontrar boas histórias =D
Man, what pleasure to watch, you should come to Porto Alegre (south Brasil) and meet Marlon Silva and Bruno Silva, you gonna love it. Nice video, keep doing it!
This spot was recently re-done a few years back. My local DIY skate park Bowl Arariba took a piece of the old ledge to put into the skatepark which was recently redone. Stoked to see you're still in São Paulo. Other places to check out while you're there. -Parque Ibirapuera one of the OG spots of São Paulo and has a long history of skateboarding, there's also a nice little skate park inside that they built a few years ago. Great spot of filming footage as it's a scenic place. -Bowl Arariba -Prafinha super unique DIY worth filming, local pro manages the spot and is always there. -Chakra do Jockey -Vans Park São Paulo -Centro de esportes radicais -Parque de Juventude (São Bernardo) Cheers from Montreal!
O Formiga é monstro! Inclusive, já tive um Hocks pro model dele... Muito bom! Se der, aproveita que tá no Brasil e vai pro RJ conhecer o Ademar, a Ademafia e tudo que rola por lá...
