Human Interest Real People 11-Year-Old Skateboarder Pulls Off Crazy Stunt: 'Now I Am Going to Celebrate' "I have no words to explain what just happened," Gui Khury wrote on Instagram, sharing footage of his 1080-degree spin By Benjamin VanHoose Benjamin VanHoose Benjamin VanHoose is an Associate Editor on the Movies team at PEOPLE.

On Friday, 11-year-old Gui Khury of Curitiba, Brazil, posted a clip on Instagram documenting an impressive feat: completing a 1080-degree trick — or three total spins while in the air. Khury became the first athlete to land the move on a vertical ramp, according to Reuters. "1080!!! I have no words to explain what just happened..." he captioned the video. Khury's dad Ricardo Khury Filho told Reuters that being at home during the coronavirus (COVID-19) has allowed the sports prodigy to train and perfect the challenging move. “The isolation for the coronavirus helped because he had a life that was about school and he didn’t have a lot of time to train; when he got home from school he was tired,” said Filho. “So now he is at home more, he eats better, and he has more time to train and can focus more on the training, so that has helped.” He added: “He has an opportunity to train here, if he didn’t have [the skate facilities] ... he would be stuck at home like everyone else and unable to do sport. So the isolation helped him focus.” Tony Hawk Claps Back at Instagram Troll Who Made 'Homophobic' Joke About Him Wearing a Helmet Never miss a story — sign up for PEOPLE's free daily newsletter to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from juicy celebrity news to compelling human interest stories The outlet reported that Khury pulled off a 900-degree spin when he was 8 years old. And his go-to celebratory meal after successfully landing these stunts? A bowl of macaroni and cheese, he said. “I was like, 'Oh my God, what did I just do?' ” Khury said to Reuters. “I was just like, 'Okay, I landed it, now I am going to celebrate.' ” RELATED VIDEO: Shawn Johnson Is Teaching Husband Andrew East How to Do Handstands While in Self-Isolation Man Who Was Supposed to Climb Mount Everest Hikes Distance on His Apartment Stairs Instead Khury said he sent the video to some of his "favorite skaters" — including pro Tony Hawk, who completed a 900 in 1999. When he saw some of his idols comment on and share the footage, he said it was "so crazy, because it’s like a once in a lifetime experience." "It’s so amazing," he added. "It’s the best feeling ever." For now, Khury said he plans to continue practicing the 1080 so he can demonstrate it in competitions — and he's also aiming to outdo himself in the future: “1260. One person has done it only, but it was on a mega ramp so it will be way difficult for me.” As information about the coronavirus pandemic rapidly changes, PEOPLE is committed to providing the most recent data in our coverage.
