Nigerian inline skater and youth advocate Sylvester Phadion is set to attempt two Guinness World Records on December 7 at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja. The event, marking International Civil Aviation Day, will feature Phadion’s attempt at the fastest snake sideways slalom on 500 cones and the fastest 20-cone slalom in inline skates.
Phadion says the challenge goes beyond sport — it’s part of his mission to promote community development and raise funds for basic needs such as clean water, healthcare, and youth empowerment.
