Sofia Bogdanova is a professional rollerblader and let’s just say, there is a reason why she is considered to be a professional. Because she is insanely good at it.
In 2018, she participated in the PSWC Classic Slalom Junior Women division and won first place. It is easy to see why.
There were three separate rows of mini cones lined up. The line in the back had a lot of space in between each cone, the second line had slightly less space, and the third line in the front was much tighter, essentially increasing the level of difficulty for Bogdanova.
The goal for her was to not only give a great athletic performance but to also weave in and out of the cones without touching them. It is a very hard task but it is shocking just how seamless she made it look.
She weaved in and out of each cone over and over again, without touching a single one once. She whipped out a ton of tricks, like neverending spins, rolling backward, and a lot of single-legged moves.
She was unphased the entire time. Or maybe she was nervous, but it certainly did not show!
The way she moves throughout the 2 minute-long performance is straight-up magic.
When watching the performance, it almost feels as if you are watching a figure skater. The costume is similar but also, it requires that same level of grace. Bogdanova is basically defying the laws of physics and attempting really difficult and intense moves, but she flows with each movement so effortlessly, she looks like a delicate swan the whole way through!
As she stunned with every move, the crowd continued to cheer her on. Everyone was in awe of her true skills and talent and it is easy to see why. Not just anyone can do what this young lady was able to do.
She would roll backward to enter the row of cones behind her without even looking… How did she manage to do that? The world may never know! It seems like true witchery.
There are even a few moments where she just chops all the way through each and every space in between the cones. She goes quickly and really elevates the speed, welcoming every challenge with ease. She must have rehearsed this for thousands of hours.
And just in case you were wondering — yes, she won first place of course! Which is much deserved. You’ll agree once you watch the video yourself.
Everyone on the Internet is in awe of her talents too. The video is up to almost 2 million views today. It’s been getting a lot of hilarious comments too.
“Not to brag… But I can eat my food without spilling,” one person wrote, clearly making fun of the fact that they could never rollerskate like that. “I avoid doing my homework like this girl avoids hitting the cones,” another person joked.
