Falling has always been a big part of skateboarding though. Learning to withstand slams, becoming resilient, feeling the satisfaction of landing a trick, etc. are a big part of the culture of the sport.
I could see how that might frustrate some spectators, but I personally love seeing somebody finally land a trick after battling to complete it.
still, it's a discipline with very little depth at the very top of the rankings (in terms of Nations, not singles) and it also doesn't make a lot of sense to me (basically you see a lot more fails than exciting runs/tricks in a competition)
still definitely not a fan, but Park makes a lot more sense, at least
gotta be honest...I know Speedskating already is a core discipline at the Winter Olympics, but I think also the Inline Speedskating should become Olympic (in Summer) and replace the Street events
World Skate should make something about it!
A good performance from Neeraj Chopra finishing 2nd considering he is not 100% fit & will have a groin surgery in off season.
A nice purse of $12000 for his efforts
Congratulations to Peters for winning the Diamond league & concluding a very successful season with another close fought battle with Chopra.
