Teenager Arisa Trew’s star continues to rise after the Australian skateboarder won gold in the women’s park final at the Olympic qualifier series in Shanghai. The 14-year-old, who is bidding to win a place at the Games later this year, now sits in second place in the world rankings and in a strong position to stamp her ticket to Paris.
Trew was joined on the podium in Shanghai by compatriot and Tokyo Games gold medallist Keegan Palmer, who finished in the men’s park event in second place. Kieran Woolley, Chloe Covell and Ruby Trew also achieved top eight placings in a boost to their own qualifying hopes.
