Skateboarding makes its debut at the Olympic Games at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. Now in South Africa, it's a rising sport on the streets, providing young people with an activity once shunned by authorities as a nuisance. It's now very much recognised as not only one of the hippest sports in the country but one that can have a positive social impact. Cape Town’s Jean-Marc Johannes has set his sights firmly on realising his lifelong dream of representing South Africa on the world stage in two years time.
