Marco de Santi

Marco de Santi (born 1983) is a Brazilian professional vert skater. Santi was the first person to ever land a triple backflip in the world at woodward's resi ramp. When inline skating was removed from the X-Games, vert skaters found other ways to profit from their sport and their talent. Santi joined Cirque du Soleil.[1] Santi has won many X Games medals.[2]
