Never let it be said that nothing historic came from the Coronavirus Pandemic of 2020. With the schools in his home country of Brazil closed (like everywhere else), 11-year-old Gui Khury has had even more time than usual to perfecting his skateboarding skills.
And by perfecting, I mean he's become the very first person to land a 1080-degree (3 complete rotations) turn on a vertical ramp.
More than two decades after Tony Hawk completed the first 900-degree turn, Khury has broken thru with what many in the sport consider "The Holy Grail."
