Do they know yet? Who’s gonna skate for ‘Merica? Thanks.

The real question is who will pass the drug test?

[hamisonrye]

Concerning drugs, I thought I read they loosened the requirements coming up.  Like only testing for amounts equal to a couple days before performing or some shit.  Ain't feel like looking for article now though.

WADA would never allow that.

Those participating or potentially participating will start randomized drug tests probably right after christmas

My bad it was just weed that I had read about.  "The new threshold for the active ingredient in marijuana, tetrahydrocannabinol or THC, has been increased from 15 nanograms per millilitre of urine to 150ng/mls."

[Lenny the Fatface]

Some guy from rural China that no one ever heard of who rides for the 'Koston' brand. He'll skate like a mix between Tiago and Nyjah and take slams like early 2010s Leo Romero. He'll take the gold because all the good Americans, Spaniards, Australians, and Brazilians will bomb the drug tests.

[Ziad]

Most skaters are from USA if it's only one skater representing the country I think it could be
USA         Nyjah
Brazil       Luan
Australia  Shane O neil
Japan      Yuto
Canada    Decenzo
Colombia David Gonzalez
Germany Willow
 

[Nosferatu]

France Leo Valls
England Blondie McCoy

Not if he's in jail for failing to pay the taxes he owes

[j....soy.....]

A bunch of skaters no one knows.....

[Shitbag]

Todd Falcon gold medal or GTFO

[chipped tail]

Tom Schaar seems like a nice boy that could pass a drug test. probably will be lots of the really young pros that arent old enough to smoke hella weed yet

[Bumpovertrash]

my money is on Daisuke Ikeda

I skimmed through a stream of the World Skate Park Championship earlier today. That’s a qualifying event for the Olympics. There were guys from Turkey and India falling on kick turns. So it’ll be interesting to see the disparity between countries. Also, it looks like Yuto will be there for both Street and Park. Dude might low key be one of the best transition skaters in the world.

makes me wonder...because the olympics allows athletes with dual citizenship to represent the country of their choosing, it's not uncommon for olympians to compete for countries they're not from. "for many athletes, changing their national allegiances is the only way to keep their olympic dreams alive, especially if their home country is stacked with talent in their particular sport." https://www.businessinsider.com/why-some-olympic-athletes-have-competed-for-multiple-countries-2018-2

can you think of any skaters that this might apply to? maybe cambodia can grant fred gall some sort of honorary citizenship since he saved all those monks.

[dirtyweemidden]

Stu Graham for Scotland/UK - if for no other reason than to scare the shite out of actual 'athletes'

[Vitriol]

I'll only watch it if it's like Orange Man / Gou... / heck, even the pirate.

I hope they make an absolute disgrace of skateboarding. Like DUIs, drug possession, vandalism, showing up late as fuck, vomit on the course, forgot to bring a skateboard... I'd watch that.

No buttchugs? Not interested.
