Margielyn Didal, known as Margie, is a Filipino professional street skateboarder who was born on 19 April 1999 in Cebu City, the fourth of five children of a carpenter and a sidewalk vendor. She began skating with friends at the now closed Concave Park in Cebu, was sometimes chased off the streets by police and security guards, and started entering local contests in 2012 with the help of coach Daniel Bautista. She rose to fame when she competed at X Games Minneapolis in 2018 and won a gold medal at the 2018 Asian Games, and she later became the first Filipino skateboarder to compete in Street League Skateboarding events abroad.
