Although this young British-Japanese boarding legend may not need much of an introduction, Tag Heuer has announced their official partnership with the extraordinary athlete – and now, TAG Heuer Ambassador – Sky Brown!
Representing Great Britain in the 2020 Summer Olympics at the age of 13, Sky picked up Bronze in the park event, making her the country’s youngest ever medalist.
But her talents don’t stop there; she is also an exceptionally skilled surfer and is considering competing in the GB Olympic Team. She also won the American TV program Dancing with the Stars: Juniors.

The past two years have also seen her talents and dedication recognized at a global level when she won the 2021 BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year award – quickly followed by 2022’s Comeback of the Year Award at the Laureus World Sports Awards.

In some ways, the Dew Tour Women’s Park finals were almost a replay of what we witnessed at the X Games last weekend. Sky Brown and Sakura Yosozumi battling it out for the top two spots, Cocona Hiraki following right behind, and the USA skaters ending up solidly in the middle of the pack.

It was good to see USA’s Jordyn Barratt back in the mix, she held her own and threw down a great first run. Bryce Wettstein brought her own brand of magic to the comp and nailed it on her final run to secure that 5th place spot. As you can see, there was a big jump in scores from the podium skaters to the rest of the field. With Sky Brown absolutely knocking it out of the park on her third and final run it put Sakura at a bit of a disadvantage, had she made that 540 and the rest of her run she may have overcome Sky’s score. Stay tuned because the battle between these two will undoubtedly continue on through the Paris 2024 Olympics.

Another surprise was Allysha Le in the announcers booth. So great to have a female pro skater in there calling out tricks and talking about their fellow skaters. We hope this momentum keeps going!
