Fifth place in the men’s division at Rome 2022: Argentinian unknown Mauro Iglesias arrived in Rome last year devoid of any meaningful sponsorship and threatens to upset the skateboarding establishment applecart with a podium finish. One of the great natural talents of his generation in a Latin American skate scene which is more aware of one another’s talent markers throughout the continent than almost any other. If you ever doubted that Olympic skateboarding could be a field of dreams, ask this guy. Every skateboarder in the world is rooting for him as he progresses from contest to contest.
