Then he went to the U18 European Championships , again in Tbilisi. In the final he achieved a distance of 15.74 m, which, in addition to a new best performance, also meant the silver medal. Two months later he put another seven centimeters on top of his previous record.

In 2017, Dallavalle became the Italian U20 champion in June with 16.46 m. Then he also took part for the first time in the national championship of adults, in which he succeeded in fifth place. In the same month he started at the U20 European Championships in his homeland, Italy. He was able to increase his best performance in the final to 16.87 m, with which he won the silver medal and also improved the Italian junior record in this discipline. In 2018 he could not improve, but became national U20 indoor champion. In 2019, Dallavalle again finished fifth at the Italian championships. In July he competed at the U23 European Championships in Gävle. He made it into the final, in which he managed a jump to 16.95 m, which to this day, as of 2020, is his best performance. In October he appeared at the World Championships in Doha for the first time in an international championship among adults.
