Gabryel Aguilar and Roos Zwetsloot are Red Bull Conquest 2023 Champions
Gabryel Aguilar and Roos Zwetsloot won this year’s Red Bull Rio Conquest.
The contest has a head-to-head eliminator format that determines the new reigning champions of each tour stop.
Zwetsloot defeated Maria Lucia in the quarterfinals and Vitória Mendonça in the semis. In the finals, she faced and triumphed over Gabriela Mazetto.
This is Zwetsloot’s second Red Bull Conquest win.
Meanwhile, Aguilar battled Trevor McClung and Lucas Rabelo in the quarter and semi-finals. He defeated Giovanni Vianna in the finals.
Red Bull Rio Conquest is the third installment of our exhilarating skateboarding tour that celebrates the vibrant skate culture found in remarkable cities across the world.
Following the success of events in Paris and Lisbon, Red Bull Conquest continues its tradition of showcasing a thrilling weekend skate competition set against the backdrop of meticulously recreated iconic skate spots from each host city.
These city-center showdowns bring together a fusion of top-notch local and international skateboarding talent, all vying for victory in an unpredictable event where any participant has a chance to claim the crown.
Setting itself apart from other street skate contests, Red Bull Conquest adopts a unique one-on-one sudden-death knockout format.
Skilled judges evaluate the riders’ overall impression during each intense three-minute jam rather than simply tallying up individual trick scores, ensuring an emphasis on creativity and style throughout the competition.

Watch how it all went down in the video above.
