To find out how they are experiencing the<br \/>build-up to this competition, we spoke exclusively to four great figures of scootering: Charlie<br \/>Dyson, Corey Sponseller, Emily Gibson, and Simon Jonson.

How did you get started in scootering?<\/strong><br \/>I started riding a scooter when I was 5 or 6 years old. My grandad bought me a scooter for Christmas,<br \/>and I fell in love with the sport. Shortly after, my local skatepark, Dexx, opened, and I was there every day<br \/>since.<br \/><strong>2. What does competing in Extreme Barcelona mean to you?<\/strong><br \/>Absolutely everything. It&#8217;s been a dream since I started scootering. As a family, we always came to<br \/>Extreme Barcelona, but now being part of the event is incredible.<br \/><strong>3. Favorite trick?<\/strong><br \/>720.<br \/><strong>4. Your favorite song to skate to?<\/strong><br \/>Biggie Smalls.<br \/><strong>5. Who is your biggest inspiration in the sport?<\/strong><br \/>Jordan Clark.<br \/><strong>6. What has been the biggest challenge you have overcome as a rider?<\/strong><br \/>Becoming a pro rider at 8 years old and competing against riders like R Willy, Kota, and Jordan Clark has<br \/>been an incredible experience. I have worked very hard to progress in this sport, and I&#8217;ve earned my<br \/>place among the best, being able to participate in competitions like Extreme Barcelona.<br \/><strong>7. What are your goals for this season?<\/strong><br \/>Keep progressing constantly, win Extreme Barcelona, and become a world champion. And get my face<br \/>up at Diagonal Mar like Jordan, haha!<br \/><strong>8. What makes Extreme Barcelona special compared to other events?<\/strong><br \/>It is by far the best event of the year for scooter. It&#8217;s a family event, the crew is amazing, and the vibe is<br \/>unbeatable.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/extremebarcelona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/emilygibson.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;emilygibson&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"9\"><strong>EMILY GIBSON<\/strong><br \/>Paving the way for Australian female talent<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"9\"><strong>1. How did you get started in scootering?<\/strong><br \/>My cousin gave me his old scooter, and I used to ride it every day before school. That led me to meet<br \/>other riders and enter my first competitions. When I realized there were women in this sport, I kept<br \/>pushing harder and harder, and now I ride and work full-time in the scooter world.<br \/><strong>2. What does competing in Extreme Barcelona mean to you?<\/strong><br \/>So much! Representing Australia as a woman in Barcelona means a lot to me. Plus, I was one of the first<br \/>women to compete in an international competition in Barcelona back in 2019, so coming back now, in<br \/>2026, makes me extremely excited and proud.<br \/><strong>3. Favorite trick?<\/strong><br \/>Without a doubt, the full whip fingerwhip.<br \/><strong>4. Your favorite song to skate to?<\/strong><br \/>Hahaha, my favorite song to ride to is any SZA song.<br \/><strong>5. Who is your biggest inspiration in the sport?<\/strong><br \/>Ryan Williams (Rwilly). Freestyle scooter wouldn&#8217;t be where it is today without him, both for his role as a<br \/>role model and his dedication as a rider. He&#8217;s given me so many opportunities, from riding at Rwilly Land<br \/>to riding in Nitro Circus, and he&#8217;s also helped me believe in myself more and push myself to go further.<br \/><strong>6. What has been the biggest challenge you have overcome as a rider?<\/strong><br \/>Fear! Of heights and getting hurt. It&#8217;s a sport and it has its risks. I am learning to trust my body and face<br \/>the challenges it brings me.<br \/><strong>7. What are your goals for this season?<\/strong><br \/>To compete and be satisfied with my performance. Go out there, put down a solid run, and let the judges<br \/>score it what they feel it deserves.<br \/><strong>8. What makes Extreme Barcelona special compared to other events?<\/strong><br \/>It is a competition that brings riders together and showcases our talent. It supports the junior, pro, and<br \/>women&#8217;s categories alike. Being an invitational competition is a privilege, and it&#8217;s an honor to be invited to<br \/>participate.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/extremebarcelona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/PARK-BATTLE-W-1-scaled.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;PARK BATTLE W (1)&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"9\"><strong>COREY SPONSELLER<\/strong><br \/>Returning to his favorite event after overcoming injuries<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"9\"><strong>1. How did you get started in scootering?<\/strong><br \/>A friend of mine used to hang out at the local skatepark after school. Back then, my main sport was<br \/>trampoline, but one day I decided to tag along. I liked it right away, and the rest is history. I ended up<br \/>combining my twists and flips with the scooter.<br \/><strong>2. What does competing in Extreme Barcelona mean to you?<\/strong><br \/>Barcelona is one of my favorite events every year. It&#8217;s a super fun city, the atmosphere is incredible, and<br \/>the skatepark is massive. I love riding big parks.<br \/><strong>3. Favorite trick?<\/strong><br \/>Double flips.<br \/><strong>4. Your favorite song to skate to?<\/strong><br \/>None.<br \/><strong>5. Who is your biggest inspiration in the sport?<\/strong><br \/>Seeing myself improve.<br \/><strong>6. What has been the biggest challenge you have overcome as a rider?<\/strong><br \/>Coming back after three consecutive years of surgeries, including having plates put in my shoulder twice<br \/>and thumb surgery. Recovery has been a long, slow process, and staying focused on the sport while not<br \/>being able to compete was mentally tough. That has made every step back onto my scooter even more<br \/>rewarding.<br \/><strong>7. What are your goals for this season?<\/strong><br \/>Keep progressing, learn new tricks, stay healthy and injury-free, and most importantly, always have fun<br \/>riding. Plus doing my best for my sponsors.<br \/><strong>8. What makes Extreme Barcelona special compared to other events?<\/strong><br \/>It holds a very special place in my heart because it was my first international competition. In my first year<br \/>there, I was able to show what I was capable of by winning the Fernando Cup. It&#8217;s an event that gave me<br \/>confidence on the international scene and one I always look forward to going back to.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/extremebarcelona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/oscaralonsoExtreme25-day2-644.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;oscaralonsoExtreme25-day2-644&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"9\"><strong>SIMON JONSON<\/strong><br \/>The medal seeker<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"9\"><strong>1.
