Will skateboarding return in 2024 and 2028?

With the Olympics heading to Paris in 2024 and Los Angeles in 2028, we can’t help but wonder if we’ll see the debuting sports make a comeback. While karate won’t make it to Paris or LA, will skateboarding- one of the unlikeliest sports of all time- make it to these gigantic Olympiads?

For the aforementioned names, the Paris Olympics 2024 will be their chance to extend the medal tally. Skateboarding will return to the Olympics along with new sports like breakdancing, surfing and sports climbing, sports that debuted in Tokyo. Unfortunately, baseball won’t feature in Paris.
