UPDATE 02.01.19: Lizzie was the guest on last week’s episode of The Desiree Show, and talks about competing in the Olympics starting at the 51:20 mark below.
With the Olympics coming up, I’m going to be representing Finland. It’s kind of crazy, the whole Olympics thing and skateboarding. It’s definitely not popular right now. It’s important though; I think. I think it should be skateboarders leading the way, and saying: “This is skateboarding. And this is how we do it.” And keep skateboarding skateboarding, and not let it turn into something else… Back when snowboarding was first put into the Olympics, the top guys weren’t a part of it. They weren’t going to embrace it. That hasn’t stopped yet. So I think it’s important that skateboarders take care of their own.
