Getting Wild in the Streets of Quito, Ecuador
Article by Sam McGuire published in February of 2017 on the "Red Bull Dot Com" Web site. FROM THE ARTICLE: "Skating in Quito, you notice one thing straight away: the altitude. At 2,850m above sea level, breathing, skating, jumping, walking or any sort of movement becomes difficult as the air is so thin. It made for a hard time skating, as the boys would only have a few goes before needing to take a break to catch their breath"
