Paris 2024: Men's Street Skateboarding Results

This evening in Paris’ Place de la Concorde, the 2024 Olympic Games hosted the greatest Street Skateboarding contest ever, bar none.

Japan’s Yuto Horigome, who almost didn’t qualify for the Paris Games at all after a mid- qualifier slump, staged the comeback of his life to retain the title of Olympic gold medallist in a Best Trick shootout that pulsated with energy and thrills under azure skies and soaring French temperatures.

The greatest redemption story in the history of skateboarding was fraught with tension, however, as the lead changed hands almost every minute.

In second place and taking silver was America’s Jagger Eaton, who won bronze at Tokyo 2020- and was in gold position until Yuto’s last trick overleap- and the bronze medal went to American legend Nyjah Huston, who himself improved on on his previous 7th place in Tokyo.
