Letícia Bufoni

Letícia Bufoni is a Brazilian-American professional street skateboarder who was born on 13 April 1993 in São Paulo, Brazil. She started skating at nine, and her grandmother bought her first skateboard when she was eleven. She skated with the boys of her neighborhood despite her father's objections. At fourteen she moved to the United States and competed in her first X Games in 2007 in Los Angeles. She is a six-time X Games gold medalist, earned six straight medals in women's skateboard street from 2010 to 2014 and added the title at Shanghai in 2019, and with that win she tied Elissa Steamer's decade-old record for most golds in the event.
