Send us Fan MailIn Part 2 of our conversation with Youth World Champion Mateo Coates, we dive into the mindset behind his meteoric rise. Drawing from lessons learned alongside fellow world champion and friend Weka Bhanubandh, Mateo reveals how humility and a relentless refusal to settle fuel his success. He takes aim at the doubters who said an American couldn’t win gold—proving that the U.S. belongs on the podium. And at the heart of it all? His parents. Mateo opens up about the sacrifices they made, the belief they never wavered in, and how their quiet, steady presence has been the anchor behind every victory—on and off the water.
