Skateboarding is officially part of the Olympics for the first time in Tokyo. Thanks to a recent rule from the International Olympic Committee, the organizers of the Toyko Olympics were allowed to propose new events and Skateboarding was one of their choices.

Let's celebrate in the way we do best - with music!
