Skateboarders Mariah Duran and Sean Malto look to Tokyo 2020 Olympics:
Sean Malto, 30, is vying for a spot at the 2020 Olympics in skateboarding."Skateboarding started off as kind of a lifestyle before it was a sport," Duran said."Going into skateboarding, people never told you to do warm-ups or anything like that, you kind of just got on your board and skated to the skatepark and that was your warm-up."
About two years ago, Duran was able to quit her part-time job, and between major sponsorships from Adidas and Mountain Dew, now makes a full living in the sport. "When you're jumping down 12 stairs over and over again and trying to flip your board and land back on it, and the ability to get yourself out of dangerous situations or pull off tricks in these high pressure situations, it's a toll," Malto said.
