Sergio Yuppie – King of Downhill Slide

這部影片是在講被喻為下坡甩尾之王Sergio Yuppie的故事，從小時候講到他為甚麼成為下坡甩尾之王 ，他的手臂上甚至有” King of downhill”的刺青。看他一路走來並不順利，但他有熱情與決心，練技術，然後滑出屬於自己的風格。他用盡各種方式來slide，最經典的當然是都沒人想到的-用頭slide!!!

Sergio Yuppie 說: “技術可獲得掌聲，但我的風格值得被尊重”

技術練就有了，但那份熱情與認同才是成就風格的關鍵。

影片後半段看著他和他的小孩一起滑，幸福的小孩和老爸，有板真好!!

This is a short documentary about the untold story of Sergio Yuppie’s humble beginnings in the skateboarding world. From being just a kid with a dream on the streets of Brazil to becoming an international skateboard icon, Sergio remains true to his purpose in life – skateboarding for the pure love of it.

We celebrate a life driven by passion and adversity – a rags to riches story where wealth is not measured by monetary value. Here’s a living, breathing example of the goals that you can achieve, no matter how big you dream. This is the story of Sergio Yuppie.
