Olympic Setback: Sky Brown Misses Paris 2024 Surfing Qualification

Sky Brown aspirations for Olympic surfing in Paris 2024 were dashed as she fell short of qualification at the ISA World Surfing Games in Puerto Rico. The 15 years old aiming to represent Team GB in both surfing and skateboarding faced a setback with a third-place finish in the sixth repechage.

Chinese surfer Yang Siqi and Spain’s Janire Gonzalez-Etxabarri secured the top two spots leaving Brown out of contention. Despite being the reigning world champion in park skateboarding, Brown is relatively new to elite surfing and her Olympic dreams in both sports may have to wait.
