    In 2017, D. Skabelund constructed a maximal curve over Fq4\mathbb{F}_{q^4} as a cyclic cover of the Suzuki curve. In this paper we explicitly determine the structure of the Weierstrass semigroup at any point PP of the Skabelund curve. We show that its Weierstrass points are precisely the Fq4\mathbb{F}_{q^4}-rational points. Also we show that among the Weierstrass points, two types of Weierstrass semigroup occur: one for the Fq\mathbb{F}_q-rational points, one for the remaining Fq4\mathbb{F}_{q^4}-rational points. For each of these two types its Ap\'ery set is computed as well as a set of generators
