Michael Capaldi（生于1990年3月27日），被大家叫做MikeMo Capaldi，是位左脚在前的Regular 职业滑板选手，因其在滑手Paul Rodriguez创作的视频Forecast 中个人精彩片段而为众人所知。Mo神在2003年10月为Berrics网站拍摄片段时，放出了自己神奇的反脚大乱。
早期生涯
生于美国加州西米谷的他，上的是皇家高中。Capaldi 在2013年早些时候解释说自己的小名"Mo"是在他很小的时候爸爸给起的。玩扶手摔断手腕之后，Capaldi 滑板就开始有意回避扶手并在2013年的访谈之中说到“我不喜欢扶手那玩意”。
职业滑板生涯
Girl
Capaldi 在2013年的访谈中提到和Girl团队最好的关系在于“因为Girl于我而言，是我幼年时梦想的赞助商，所以实现梦想无疑是最酷的一件事了，Girl也确实一如既往的厉害。” 紧接着坦言他是在没有做任何预先准备的情况下开始滑板，但据他后来观察那些很优秀的滑手都会在玩板之前做一些常规的工作。
Lakai
Capaldi 的第一个板鞋赞助商就是Lakai，也拥有该赞助商的签名款板鞋。不知是不是因为Lakai 在2011年想赢得由Thrasher杂志主办的"King of the Road"比赛，Mo神退出了Lakai 公司。
Matix
Capaldi 已被Matix赞助数年且也拥有该品牌的签名款服饰，Matix同样为Mo神的篮球队"西米谷Bierdos" 定制衣服。
Spitfire
2011年，Capaldi 在截止2013年3月已不存在的Fillmore 公司待了好长时间之后加入Spitfire滑板轮团队。在他的团队介绍片段时，他创造并发布了可以作为未赞助滑手标准的"赞助我"个人视频。
DC 滑板鞋
在Lakai的那段时间，Capaldi已经加入DC团队，新同伴有Nyjah Huston和Mikey Taylor等等。
2012年Agenda贸易展上，Capaldi的首个DC签名款板鞋以3种不同风格亮相。2013年1月14日，MikeMo的另一款DC签名款战靴亮相世人，同时伴随两个在线视频的造势- 该款板鞋市场推广时的广告词"Designed from the Inside Out"
赞助商
截止2014年，Capaldi的赞助商包括Girl滑板、DC鞋子、Royal滑板桥、Spitfire滑板轮、Mob砂纸，Bones Swiss轴承、Diamond服饰以及Glassy眼镜。Capaldi 曾经是Lakai板鞋和Matix服饰的团队成员。
Glassy眼镜
Capaldi和他的弟弟Vince合创了Glassy眼镜，然而，"Glassy太阳镜"注册在"Capaldi，Vince"共同名义之下。
Glassy太阳镜于2012年九月开始网上开店卖货，产品包括Stefan Janoski、Sean Malto以及Mike Mo自己的签名款眼镜。最为著名的是团队滑手Daewon Song，其代言的"Daeviator"于2012年后半年开售。
2013年5月，Capaldi 和职业滑手Chris Cole两位DC Shoes队员之间打赌如果Cole 在任何比赛上输给Mo，那Cole就必须加入Glassy 团队，结果在随后的Berrics 6中Cole果真输给了Capaldi，Glassy又吸入一员大将。
认可
SkateLab 室内板场(位于Capaldi的家乡西米谷)和DC公司合作创立"年度首届Mike Mo节日"，日期定为2013年2月9日。活动参与者均可获得和Capaldi见面以及滑板的机会，同时还有Capaldi的DC产品。
比赛结果
Capaldi在平地滑板比赛"S.K.A.T.E." 拿下Benny Fairfax后赢得第一届BATB（Battle at the Berrics）冠军。"S.K.A.T.E." 即为两位选手跟招，先是石头剪刀布定出招先后，输家按"S.K.A.T.E." 顺序跟赢家出招直至用完所有字母，最后一招有两次尝试的机会。
Capaldi 被由职业滑手Rob Dyrdek创建的Street League比赛而选为参赛选手。在联赛中他和Sean Malto、Paul Rodriguez、Chris Cole以及Luan Oliviera悉数较量，但截至目前为止还未拿过此项冠军。然而，2013年3月Street League发布消息说，Capaldi并未入选比赛名单。
媒体亮相
Capaldi 出镜了 燃料电台（Fuel TV）的"新污染"栏目，也登上NBC网络电台谈论"Battle at the Berrics "的比赛种种。
个人生活
Capaldi 定居美国加州西米谷。然而，2013年他提到虽然西米谷是他的家乡，但"该是离开的时候了"。Capaldi的哥哥Vince被诊断为骨癌，于2009年按计划做了钛骨移植手术。
Capaldi 在2013年访谈中提到如果他不是职业滑手，那他最可能在板店工作或者篮球失败后在Foot Locker店铺上班。
