Nearly half of the US Olympic Skateboarding Team is made up of San Diegans for the 2024 Paris Games.
History's most decorated skater is Torrey Pines High School alum Tony Hawk. The first national skateboarding competition ever held took place in Del Mar. So, it makes almost too much sense that the United States Olympic Skateboarding Team is stuffed with San Diegans.
On Monday, less than a month away from the start of the 2024 Paris Olympics, Team USA gathered in Vista for an official introduction. Of the 12 skaters ... three each in men's and women's park and street competitions ... five are from San Diego County and even more have moved here to be a part of the Southern California skateboarding mecca.
Lilley was born in Maryland but moved to Oceanside as a youth to train. Hers is a similar story to Jagger Eaton, the world's 4th-ranked Street skater and a bronze medalist at the 2020 Tokyo Games, who moved from Arizona to San Diego as a youth to pursue his skateboarding career. Being in the birthplace of skating is a big reason many of them earned a spot on the Olympic team.
