ZOOM : SKATEBOARD 🛹
Focus on Street Skateboarding, one of the 14 other disciplines taking part this year 🤩
SKATEBOARD STREET CONTEST PRESENTED BY CRÉDIT AGRICOLE LANGUEDOC
Initially a simple way of getting around, Skateboarding spread in the 80s and is now widely democratized. Skateboarding's influence and culture now extends into a wide range of cultural fields, and continues to grow thanks to its inclusion in the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games. In Street, riders compose runs where tricks count as much as versatility and line engagement.
