The U.S. men’s skateboarding team is excelling at the Olympic Qualifier Series.

At the inaugural OQS event in Shanghai, American skateboarders secured four of the six podium finishes in both park and street categories. These impressive performances have propelled Team USA to hold the top three positions in the World Skateboard Ranking for Park and two of the top three in the street.

Following the OQS Shanghai, Tokyo 2020 Olympic bronze medalist Jagger Eaton commented on the team’s strength: “All of us are incredibly competitive – some more than others. But our biggest goal as a country is to win medals. That’s our whole goal.”

Before they can claim any medals, skateboarders have one final opportunity to improve their rankings and qualify for Paris 2024 at the last Olympic Qualifier Series event in Budapest from June 20 to 23.

The U.S. men delivered under pressure in Shanghai, but competition is intense, and they aim to build on their rankings. They will face tough rivals from Brazil, Japan, and Australia.

Let’s review the U.S. men’s results in park and street as we anticipate the OQS Budapest.
