Cocona Hiraki Wins the 2023 X Games Japan Women’s Skateboard Park
Cocona Hiraki earned her first X Games gold for Women’s Skateboard Park at the X Games Chiba, Japan.
She placed second in last year’s X Games Chiba and third in the 2022 Summer X Games. She is also the youngest X Games medalist at age 10 after earning a silver medal in the 2019 X Games Minneapolis Women’s Park.
The 14-year-old Japanese skateboarder was also a silver medalist in the Tokyo Olympics and the youngest summer Olympian from Japan on record.
Ruby Lilley and Yurin Fujii came in second and third place, respectively.
The competition held last Friday was supposed to be an elimination round. However, organizers cancelled Saturday skateboarding events because of the weather.
X Games organizers declared the elimination standings as the final results.
Giovanni Vianna earned his first Street League Skateboarding Super Crown title last year. Will he be able to defend his crown in the 2024 SLS Tour?
Let’s rewind to how Giovanni was able to push his way up to get the Super Crown.
In the Chicago and Sydney stops, he managed to land in the nine club in the knockout rounds, but they weren’t enough to get him to the finals.
But come the Super Crown Championships, he was able to land three nine-club scores, with 9.4 being the highest, enough to snatch the crown from his closest rival, Vincent Milou.
Watch how it all went down in the video above.
The SLS Tour will return bigger and better in 2024. Up to $1.8 million prize purse is at stake, with $100,000 to go to the Super Crown Champions.
The tour is also adding more stops for a total of eight, including three SLS “Apex” spot-based events. Regular stops include Paris, San Diego, Australia (TBA), and Tokyo.
The SLS Super Crown Championships 2024 will be again held in São Paulo, Brazil, on December 14-15.
The SLS Tour 2024 will kick off at Adidas Arena, Paris, France, on February 24. Tickets are now available on the SLS website.
Before the first stop of Street League Skateboarding this February, let’s look back to how Rayssa Leal managed to land her top 5 scores of 2023.
Rayssa kicked off the 2023 season with a win at the Chicago stop and finished with a Super Crown in São Paulo. It was her second Super Crown win.
She is surely someone to watch out for in the 2024 SLS Tour, which will commence on February 24 at the Adidas Arena in Paris.
