Sakura Yosozumi, 19 years old, won the gold medal at the women's park for skateboarding, a new competition for the Tokyo Olympics, and Kaishinna, 12 years old, is also the youngest Japanese player to break the silver medal.

The 15-year-old Ao Okamoto, who is No. 1 in the world ranking, is in 4th place with an aggressive stance until the end, and the players in the women's park, who were said to be the closest to the medal in skateboarding, are as popular as before. I left the result.

Yosumi who showed the first time in the game

The gold medal player, Sakura Yosozumi, has won the world championships and the Asian Games, and has shown his skill as a match player by making use of his abundant experience in international competitions.



In the qualifying that appeared in the first group, he advanced to the final in 4th place by deciding skillful techniques one after another, such as "Blunt" where the tip of the board was hooked on the edge of the course and stopped.


Here, we focused on the stability-oriented assembly centered on the "lip trick" that uses the edge of the course, which we are good at, and decided to advance to the final while leaving the big skill of "Air" that can be expected to score high.

After the qualifying, Mr. Yosumi said, "I was able to skate comfortably and happily. It's in great shape."



And the first time in the final.

Yosumi will show off his warming skills.


In the first half, we will continue to accumulate techniques at a good tempo, centering on "lip tricks", and the final stage.


Here, I decided the big skill "540" that makes one and a half rotations twice in a row.

Yosumi


"I put it in the first time because the condition of" 540 "was good. It led to a high score for two consecutive decisions." At the



tournament, I just succeeded for the first time in the international tournament in May. The strangeness of the composition of bringing "540" for the first time and twice in a row shines, and from the beginning it hit a high score in the 60s and put pressure on the rivals, and as a result, it stood at the top.

Opening of "expert taste"

The silver medal player, Kai, has achieved results with his carefully refined skills.

Focusing on the "grind" type technique that slides the metal part that connects the wheels to the edge of the course, the big technique that grabs after rotating the board in the air while jumping, "kick flip indie grab" is also decided, etc. Although there is no "air", he scored high points in a row with a stable technique that is "professional taste".


Using the rails on the edge of the course, he also made use of the course and location that other players could not see, and won the silver medal with a convincing slide.

"I was able to show my cool slide that no one was doing"

Okamoto Challenge to the end

One Okamoto player.

Although the result was 4th place, the level was high everywhere.


In the qualifying, he succeeded in all of his "540" from the 1st to the 3rd, and passed the top with no mistakes as he was the best in the world.

In the final, Okamoto scored 53.58 for the second time and finished in 3rd place, but when he skated the last 3rd time, Sky Brown of England who skated just before gave 56.47, so Okamoto ranked. I was down to 4th place.


The last one of Okamoto who won the medal.

In the early stages, he succeeded in a difficult technique that seems to have been successful only for Okamoto in girls, combining "540" with "Varial" that swaps the front and back of the board, and also has a sense of speed that has been refined as an issue. I showed it to the fullest.

I couldn't grab the board and couldn't slide for 45 seconds with the big move "Kickflip Indie Grab" that I had incorporated in the final stage, but I challenged the difficult move until the end.



Okamoto players


"not Kimara routine is also one, very frustrating not last can also be successful,"



but we tears, the attitude of the offensive, impressive that big praise from the other players had been okra was.

Skateboarding, where Japanese people continue to play an active role, has now won the third consecutive gold medal following the men's and women's streets, and the number of medals is actually the fifth.

Of these, four other than Yuto Horigome, 22 years old on Men's Street, won medals as teenagers.



Aizumi players


"amazing happy to continue to the street. Going forward injured no fun, and I want to do my best to be out in the Paris Olympics"



still growth in the future of rich Japanese players who can be expected, the world of skateboarding in the future Expectations are high for pulling the world.
