Is skateboarding a sport in the Olympics? Skateboarding commenced on Saturday at the Tokyo Olympics. This was the street competition for men. Photographers got a great chance and captured every moment. Audiences around the world got their first taste of the rebel “anti-sport” at the global stage. On Sunday, women’s street competition begun. The part competition for men and women will debut on August 3 and 4.
Sky Brown, 13, of Great Britain and Kokona Hiraki, 12, of Japan will be the youngest Olympiads to participate in park competition. The street competition is made up of real life obstacles such as railings and stair cases.
The park course has the half-pipes and giant bowls that you might have seen in skate parks.
