Get ready for the 2024 Paris Olympics as skateboarding returns with epic talent and hilarious village shenanigans!

The 2024 Paris Olympics are just around the corner, and skateboarders from around the world are gearing up to show their skills on the grandest stage of all. Dominating the scene this time are superstars from the Tokyo Olympics like Jagger Eaton, who won bronze even with a broken ankle. You just know this guy has guts! Get ready to see whether he can nail his routines or if the skate gods are feeling cheeky come July 27, when Men's Skateboard Street kicks off the Olympic festivities with 22 of the world’s top street skaters ready to shred!

If you’re wondering how to catch all the gnarly action without selling a kidney, worry not! Streaming Olympic skateboarding online has never been easier. Whether you’re a cable subscriber or a proud streamer, we’ve got the deets on when and where to catch these daredevils in action. It’s about time to bookmark the schedule, grab a snack, and gather your friends for a live Olympic watch party — perhaps even themed around skate culture. Think ‘Gnarly Nachos’ and ‘Rad Raspberry Lemonades’!

Meanwhile, not all is smooth sailing. Olympic skateboarder Minna Stess reported a bummer that no skating allowed in the village—uh-oh! Recently, her fellow skater, Paige Heyn, got a stern talking-to for trying to shred in the Olympic quarters. Imagine trying to squeeze skating between rigorous training sessions only to run into ‘No Skating’ signs. It's all part of the Olympic experience, but skaters are known for their persistence. They'll find ways to skate, or at least wrangle a mini session on a makeshift ramp!

And let’s not forget our favorite, Nyjah Huston. Looking for redemption after leaving Tokyo empty-handed, he’s hungry for that medal. He’s been training harder than ever with all the pressure, but hey, who doesn’t love a good comeback story? In the world of skateboarding, where every trick is unique, each skater brings their flair — and their stories. Who knows, if Hollywood has taught us anything, it’s that sometimes the underdogs turn out to be the top dogs!

Fun Fact: Did you know skateboarding made its Olympic debut in the Tokyo 2020 games and was an instant hit? The sport has roots fed by the sunny beaches of California and is recognized for its creativity and self-expression! And for the ultimate icebreaker, just ask any skater what a "boddied" trick means: it’s all about that balance between landing clean and looking oh-so-cool while wiping out!
