Skateboarding competition has been widely accepted for many years and has been ongoing until this day, even with the ever-changing Coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic regulations that most countries have been implementing.
Recently, Skateboarding became a sport due to the summer Tokyo Olympics. Although many core skateboarders were against it, International Olympic Committee or IOC provisionally approved that it is an Olympic sport.
