Olympics

Looking forward to the skate park. Big for Sky Brown given she is 13, British (for our fans) and also has Japanese family. Would be amazing if she can medal

Average age for the competitors in this women's skate park is 19. I remember playing the original Tony Hawk's Pro Skater on the original Playstation which came out in 1999 when I was 13, so the same age Sky Brown is now and before basically all of these women were even born. Also, Rune Glifberg who was a featured skater in that game is competing in this Olympics at the age of 46. He must feel so old

Wow sky brown amazing for a 13 year old

Some crazy tricks and she looks so confident

Sky Brown showing what all the hype is about by going into 1st after her first run.

 

[Wizard]

Even if she doesn't end up medalling, what a performance already. Top 2 runs out of the 45 so far and her 3rd run was 6th best overall even though she only did 30 seconds of the allotted 45, just because she could.

Andrew Pozzi just scrapes into the men's 110m hurdles final for GB as one of the fastest losers. But I am changing my allegiance for that race tomorrow as Hansle Parchment might be one of the best names I've ever heard. So I want him to win. Grant Holloway of the US will almost certainly win though given he is the clear best despite his boring name.

What a race in the women's 400m hurdles final. Top two break the World Record just like in the men's race.

After the first round of the womens skate final, the one thing that stands out is that they are ALL having fun.

Mad how young some of these kids are in the skating, feel like the older ones have an advantage as they get more speed and height but i think the 12 year old won it lol

 

[Wizard]

Booom! What a performance from Sky Brown after falling on the first two runs. What an incredible group of performers in general given their ages. Gold for a 19 year old, silver for a 12 year old and bronze for our 13 year old

Just having a laugh with their mates. Great to see.

 

[Wizard]

Bit disappointed she cried after only coming 3rd though

It's so amazing to see. The way they all just seem to completely have each others backs too. When the Japanese girl (who seemed to actually be the best) fell at the end to miss a medal it was so cool to see all the others run straight over to her and hoist her up
