Nyjah Huston (skateboard)
The winningest streer skateboarder of all time, Huston is fresh off a win at the SLS Apex 02 competition in Vegas and the two Olympic Qualifier Series events, where he locked in his Paris 2024 qualification.

In a historic first this year, X Games will debut a women's BMX medal event. American Hannah Roberts, 23, is ranked No. 1 in the world in park and will lead the U.S. BMX freestyle team into the Paris 2024 Games.
Tom Schaar (skateboard)
A medal threat in skateboard vert and park, Schaar, 24, has been racking up podium finishes this season. The Malibu native won the vert event at Tampa Pro 2024 this spring and is fresh off a second-place finish in park at the Olympic Qualifier Series stop in Budapest, which allowed him to leapfrog U.S. teammate Jagger Eaton in the world rankings and qualify for the Paris 2024 Olympics.
Arisa Trew (skateboard)
At 14 years old, Arisa Trew represents a sea change in women's park and vert skateboarding. The Aussie took first place at each of the Olympic Qualifier Stops in Shanghai and Budagest in May and June, respectively, and recently became the first woman to land a 900 and a switch McTwist. She took double gold at X Games California 2023 in vert and park, but finished off the podium in Best Trick, giving the highly accomplished young rider something left unchecked on her list…for now.
