    What sets a champion apart from the rest? It’s not just talent, strength, or skill—it’s the mindset. The greatest athletes in history have all shared one thing: an unshakable belief in themselves, an ability to push through challenges, and an unwavering commitment to their goals. A champion’s mindset is built on discipline, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. 
Mental toughness is the foundation of this mindset. Champions understand that adversity is inevitable, but they refuse to let setbacks define them. Michael Jordan was famously cut from his high school basketball team, yet he used that failure as fuel to become one of the greatest players of all time. Serena Williams has faced countless obstacles, including injuries and criticism, but her ability to stay mentally strong has allowed her to dominate the sport for decades. 
Self-doubt is another challenge that even the best athletes face. However, champions learn to quiet those negative voices and replace them with self-belief. They train their minds just as much as their bodies, using visualization techniques, affirmations, and mental conditioning to stay focused. Muhammad Ali, for example, declared himself “the greatest” long before he ever won a title. His words were not just confidence—they were a mindset that propelled him to success.

    Ao longo de quase duas décadas, entre 1990 a 2007, tínhamos as duas principais marcas nacionais, que realizavam os principais campeonatos e circuitos nacionais, investiam em pistas e patrocinavam skatistas, que despontam nos campeonatos mundiais subindo ao pódio e levando títulos. Tudo isso inserido em uma ebulição musical e de moda onde o principal público era de adolescentes e jovens, que viam no skate uma forma de expressão. Desde o carrinho até as roupas streetwear, produziam e reproduziam um comportamento e uma identidade própria. Surgiu um estilo de vida, o skate como um lifestyle, e Curitiba reconhecida como a capital do skate brasileiro. A cultura do skate é resiliente, diversa e se reinventa. Desde 1972, quando tudo era desconhecido e novo, os pioneiros do skate paranaense criaram as referências. A nossa essência começou ali. E o skate passou de mão em mão, evoluiu de geração para geração. A criatividade e a liberdade movem nossa história do skate. É o que buscamos expressar neste livro.

    El Parque Natural del Cadí-Moixeró es un espacio protegido que se extiende por tres comarcas, el Berguedà, la Cerdanya y el Alt Urgell. Es una reserva de montaña, con una orografía que oscila entre los 800 m en el fondo de los valles hasta los 2.648 m de su punto culminante, el Vulturó o Puig de la Canal Baridana. Las montañas que forman la reserva natural son la sierra del Cadí, la sierra del Moixeró, el macizo del Pedraforca y parte de la Tosa y del Puigllançada.
Las excursiones escogidas para este libro, pensadas para todos los públicos, se adentran por los senderos de los magníficos bosques del parque, recorren la ribera de sus ríos, se asoman a miradores privilegiados, callejean por pueblos plenos de encanto y ascienden a algunos de sus picos, como el Pedraforca, una montaña emblemática del excursionismo catalán, a la que también rodearemos por caminos bien trazados que nos enseñan todas las caras de la mítica montaña.
