In case you haven't heard...Olympic news for LA28

LA28 announced this past week that the International Olympic Committee approved a proposal to include skateboarding and surfing into the 2028 Summer Games in Los Angeles. 

After being introduced in the Tokyo 2020 Games, and then being added as additional sports for Paris 2024, the inclusion of surfing and skateboarding in LA2028 helps surfing and skateboarding move forward in cementing their place as permanent Olympic sports.

Awesome news, and we are so glad that break-dancing wasn't on the menu... 

In other news, LA28 has been giving Olympic and Paralympic athletes like Simone Biles, Chloe Kim and Scout Bassett as well as celebrities like singer Billie Eilish, chef Roy Choi, and Bobby Hundreds  the opportunity to design the "A" in the LA28 logo for the Olympics.

The latest athlete asked  to do so is Sky Brown. Sky picked a palm tree and skateboard for her idea of welcoming skateboarding into the LA28 Olympics
