Oh well, that's simply important nowadays :p

 

I'm starting to try and look down less on those things, especially since literally every 'generation' looks down and ridicules the things of the younger 'generation' and will continue to do so. The TikTok generation of today will look with just as much ridicule to the things that the children born today will find interesting and fun when they're 15-20 :p

Commentators knowing or not knowing how to introduce an athlete is not a generational thing, though.

At least here in Brazil, skateboarding was a HUGE hit and I'm sure Brazilians will RIOT if it gets removed from the Olympics.   I agree that the format of the competition is not great, thoug

Such a shame many athletes train for decades without even being able to qualify for the Olympic Games because of a very strong competition in their sports and then some random boys and girls with toot

no medals for Nyjah UNBELIEVABLE!

Yeah, that’s tough. He’s won everything there is to win in this sport. He just fell short today.

Nice to see the athlete from Peru celebrating with him.

Peru is the best country I've visited in my life. If I had to move away from Brazil, I'd live in Peru, no question about it. I just love Lima so much!

Cool to see Eaton :USA get a medal. I remember watching him when I was 9/10 years old when he made his X Games debut as a 9/10 year old in Big Air. It was cool seeing someone my age competing, and so I’ve always cheered for him. 
 

Nice to see Horigome :JPN win at home as well. 
 

All in all, I’d say this was a fantastic and successful debut for Skateboarding at the Olympics.

      We have much more events and there may be no Russia in 2026 so most of the NOCs should improve. But not Poland i’m afraid

      For sure better for  one silver - I think it was Shelly Rudman, Skeleton.  Can definitely improve on that.   Still remember it as a good games, though - think it was the first time I took two weeks off work to watch a Winter Games.
