Skateboarder Lilly Stoephasius reached the final at the World Championships in the Olympic park discipline in Rome.
In the semi-final round, the 16-year-old from Berlin managed a strong 84.76 points in the third round and was the last participant to make it to the final in eighth place. The medals will be awarded on Sunday (October 8, 2023, 5:15 p.m.).
The day before, Tyler Edtmayer narrowly missed the semi-finals; the 22-year-old from Inningen had to settle for 18th place. Stoephasius and Edtmayer had already represented the German Roller Sports and Inline Association (DRIV) at the Olympic premiere in Tokyo. At that time, Edtmayer caused a stir because he started despite a broken arm. The World Cup in Rome is also about collecting more points for the qualification rankings for Paris 2024 with the best possible placement.
