Mazel Paris Alegado may only be nine years old, but she’s already making history. The skateboarding prodigy is the youngest member of the Philippines team at this year’s Asian Games and she’s been busy proving that age is just a number. Alegado qualified as the youngest finalist for the women’s park event on Monday, where she finished seventh out of eight.
“I wasn’t really nervous, I was really excited about it,” she said about preparing for such a big tournament. Alegado said she was five years old when she first stepped on a skateboard. Initially she loved how she could just “cruise around” on it with her friends, but she’s now got her eyes on sporting success. She said she hoped to one day reach an Olympic Games but knew she had plenty of practice to do. There is certainly precedent for youngsters achieving in skateboarding.
