あらすじ・解説
The Paris Olympic games officially begin tomorrow. We've been covering the lead up to the summer games with our series "Rings and Things" and today we're wrapping up the series with a look at what's new.
Breaking, or breakdancing, will make its Olympic debut in a couple weeks. Four American breakers qualified for the sport's first ever Olympic competition. Its inclusion comes as other youth-led sports return, including skateboarding, climbing, and surfing.
Spectators can expect a number of other changes like the inclusion of kayak cross and kiteboarding.
We discuss the new sports on the Olympic Block.
