Skateboarding (Street)

The Olympics went vertical with Skateboarding: Street features urban obstacles (stairs, rails) with two 45-second runs and five "best trick" attempts (kickflips, 50-50 grinds), while Park is a hollowed bowl where athletes have 45 seconds to flow and launch air (540s, 900s). Judged on Difficulty, Height, Speed, Flow, and Originality, the "ollie" is the foundation of all tricks, and with medalists as young as 12, it's rebellion turned Olympic.
