Skateboarding Women’s Park Preview

The park event is different than the street in that park has a tabletop area in the middle of the course, along with a few bowl shapes that will allow for more spins, jumps and aerial tricks.

The competition has two rounds, with 20 skaters competing in four heats of five. Each competitor will get three runs (of 45 seconds each), and each run will be scored by five judges. The top eight performers will move on to the final.

Sky Brown, who will be the youngest Olympian from Britain ever at 13 years and 23 days old, isn’t even the youngest competitor in the event. Kokona Hiraki of Japan is 12. Misugu Okamoto, also of Japan, is a bit older at 15. All are expected to be legitimate contenders for the gold, and they seem understandably excited about their sport’s newfound recognition.

“If you go to the skatepark it’s mostly boys there,” Brown said about the evolution of females in the sport. “Now there’s more and more girls there, which is cool, but it’s usually mostly boys. And I feel like sometimes girls are scared to be the only girl and they’re scared to be judged by the boys. But I feel like watching the Olympics, seeing how many girls are doing the sport and how good [they are], they’re gonna really want to [try it], which I’m really happy about.”

“It’s going to change the whole game,” U.S. skater Mariah Duran said about the addition of skateboarding to the Olympic Games. “This is like opening at least one door to, you know, many skaters who are having the conversations with their parents, who want to start skating.”

Those in charge are excited, as well. “We should expect great things from all the skateboarders involved,” Sabatino Aracu, president of World Skate, said. “When you wrangle the best athletes in the world and throw them under the microscope, they’ll prove – as skaters do – that they can take on any obstacle that lies ahead.”
