About Slalom Skateboarding:
Slalom skateboarding is a form of downhill skateboard racing that first appeared in
the 1960s and 1970s and made a worldwide resurgence in the 2000s. Racing events
are electronically timed - so being the fastest through the course is the name of the
game. Adding to the challenge, competitors must launch from a ramp and navigate
through a course of variously spaced cones while still generating speed - requiring
technical strategy and high skill level. Staying clean through the course is a top
priority as each cone hit carries a time penalty that will be added to the racers' run
time. Competitors are time-qualified and then seeded for elimination matches that
conclude with the final winners of each event day - awarding titles and medals to
the top finishers both men and women.
