Made it to the olympics šŸ˜‚

I used to be against skateboard in the olympics because I consider skateboard more like an art than a sport but I wanted to see it by myself to make a real opinion, and be a volunteer for the event was the perfect way to do it.

For me it was not a skateboard contest but a sport performance, a contest without beer is never a good one šŸ˜… They said that the olympics will be a really good exposition for us, it’s true but who will take the benefits ? This year the only skate magazine we have in france shut down and same for a lot of skateshops… So only big brands will have the benefits. Competition is really a small part of our culture, and the one’s we like are the opposite of the olympics (Dime contest, CPH open…). If you discover skateboard with the olympics you will think that is all about competition, and thats the biggest problem. We have a really rich culture linked to music, art, videography, photography, clothes, travels, architecture, meeting people, and way more. On the other side olympics gave money to a lot of people in the industry : coaches, judges, speakers, photographers and of couse skateboarders. And if you support your own you can only be happy about that. Like always nothing is only black or only white. 

To be honnest my experience of volunteering there was awesome, I skated the Bowl with Pat Duffy, be on the VIP area with Tony Hawk and see crazy skateboarding. I was there only 2 days and they gave me a tons of clothes, free food and free transport. I was really lucky because my missions were only to take care about Marc Haziza and it was like 30min of ā€œworkā€ per day. The rest of the day I was just enjoying the show. Also I never see Paris like that, everyone looked happy, smiling and talking to each other. The melting pot of nationality was creazy. 

In the last slide you can see police shuting down a manifestation for accommodation, the other side of the olympics.. Remind us that the success of the olympic is not because of Macron and that we still hate him. 

I never express myself on social medias but this time I wanted to share my experience. Hope it was interesting. Cheers šŸ»
