Street skateboarding will make its debut at the 2021 Tokyo Olympic Games. At the Olympics, the riders are free to choose whatever route they want around the course. In each round, the skaters will perform two 45-second runs and five tricks. The competitors are scored for the difficulty and the originality of their tricks.
