Rayssa Leal, known as “Fadinha”, is a talented Brazilian skateboarder. She started skateboarding at the age of six after receiving a skateboard as a birthday present. She started posting videos of her tricks on social media at the age of seven. In one of these videos, she skates in a fairy costume, which earned her the nickname “Fadinha do Skate”. At the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo in July 2021, Leal formed the Brazilian women’s skateboard team together with Letícia Bufoni e Silva and Pâmela Rosa. At 13 years and seven months, she is the youngest Brazilian Olympic athlete ever. She won the silver medal in the Olympic competition on July 26, 2021.
