Eleven-year-old Sky Brown is smashing the skateboarding world and beating adults a lot older than her.
She’s set her sights on competing in the Tokyo Olympics in 2020, where she’d be Britain’s youngest ever summer Olympian. It’ll be the first time skateboarding will be an official sport at the Olympics.
Sky is working on a new move, the backside 540, which involves spinning around one-and-a-half times towards your toes. World Skate advises skaters under 18 always wear a helmet.
