I personally think that as snowboarding (including freestyle) is an Olympic sport then skate boarding should be. There is just as much skill, strength etc. involved as there is in any of the other sports included already. The Olypics should keep up to date with the modern world and has to change to include all manner of sports and should include and encourage the youngsetrs of today. If someone can ride a horse, push a shot-put or race a cycle round a track then surely there's a place for skate-boarding.
