    i think it should be. it takes physical skill and ability, and also required you to be in good shape to do it. people practice hard to become great skateboarders. i do not skateboard btw, so this is an unbiased opinion

    In the world of skateboard competition, u have a winner and a loser just like any sport. Players and boarders both practice hard and put their bodies on the line for their best performance. I say any sport that consists of these kinda "sporty" reasons should be considered a sport.

    That is very true - extreme sports are great to watch,
    I admire people who put their bodies on the line in pursuit of their sport

    i think if its taken too seriously like olympics, it just wont be as good, if any of use ever did any extreme sports you would understand, its not all bout winning, u gotta keep the flavour and style, its the most important thing in these kinda sports

    props to mad skaters

    yes cause skateboarding is a sport, it requires effort and practice to even do. You definitely have to use your legs and stuff
