Gustavo Ribeiro is a Portuguese professional street skateboarder, born on 27 March 2001. He received his first skateboard at four as a Christmas present from his uncle, and two years later he and his twin brother Gabriel were sponsored by a local surf and skate shop. After placing third in his first competition he began travelling to international contests alone at fourteen, and he left secondary school in 2019 to skate full time. He won the Tampa Am in 2017, took bronze in street at the 2019 World Skateboarding Championship, and competed for Portugal at the 2020 Summer Olympics, where an injured shoulder left him eighth, and again at the 2024 Summer Olympics. His first Street League Skateboarding win came in Salt Lake City in August 2021, and he won the Street League super crown in 2022. His father Paulo is his coach.
