Skateboarding Makes Olympic Debut At Tokyo 2020

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – For the first time ever, skateboarding will be an Olympic sport at the Tokyo Games.

Skateboarding will be divided into two events for the Olympics, park and street. Street skating involves rails and stairs, the typical things you’d see around a city while park skating features more ramps and pipes.

One of the best things about skateboarding is that the skater has complete creative control, they aren’t required to do certain things during their time.

The Tokyo Olympics begin on Friday, July 23.
