The Dew Tour Long Beach competition marks as the second Olympic skateboard street qualifier for the 2019 season. After a long weekend of competition, it’s Aurelien Giraud from France and Pamela Rosa from Brazil who lead in Olympic skateboarding street rankings for the men and women.

Olympic qualifying for skateboarding is underway, as Dew Tour held the first 5-star qualifying event for street and park skateboarding in the USA. Both finals in men and women’s street saw all international skateboarders from Frances, Japan, Australia, and the Netherlands.

So what does this mean for athletes from other counties in hope to make it to Tokyo in 2020? In short, they still have a chance to rack up as many points as they can at the up and coming qualifying events such as the SLS in Los Angles, CA (July 23-28, 2019) and in Mexico City (September 18-22, 2019), the ISO of Street Skateboarding in Qingfeng, China (September 3-8, 2019), and the STU World Championships in Sao Paulo, Brazil (September 10-15, 2019).
