Women's skateboarding is extremely new. I agree that men's skateboarding is much better to watch, but comparing it to Tokyo, for example, there has been a huge evolution in women's.

I watched all guys, they were terrific. From Kevin to Jhoncarlos. Girls were painful to watch. Even gold medal winner from Japan was terrible, IMO. 

I give them credit for trying but it just wont get much better if majority of competitors are still in primary school.

And  is unlikely to qualify an athlete for the final . Surprising.

I know nothing about this but I take it our guy is just a consistency merchant that can't really do the "big tricks"?

Shirai Sora with a 90.11 in the first run. Yuto Horigome (can't believe he's in the finals again, what a legend) with the second best run at 89.90, but there's 3 runs in 87s so it's going to be a close round.

Huge run 2 from Nyjah. It's going to be  vs  for this gold

93!
