The four-day event marks a turning point in skateboarding, which has its roots in youth street culture, art, and fashion.

Sunday's men's street competition will be a star-studded event, with international skaters competing, including American Jagger Eaton, who came first in the inaugural heat with 35.07 points, along with Huston.
