The 33rd Summer Olympics will be held in Paris from July 26 to August 11, 2024. According to Thomas Bach, head of the International Olympic Committee, the future Paris Olympics should be very different from all previous Olympic Games. They must be more inclusive, and the gender ratio of women and men will be much more equal than before. He said that the sport must also be taken up by the youth.
Also, the program seems to be very unusual and interesting and will feature many new sports disciplines. Paris 2024 has already submitted its proposal to the IOC to integrate four new sports in the Olympic games program that are closely associated with youth and reward creativity and athletic performance. These five sports are breakdancing (breaking), surfing, sport climbing and skateboarding.
And some kinds of sports have always left the Olympic program.
It’s interesting, but each new sport has to prove its own importance to the IOC (International Olympic Committee) and go through all the stages of approval.
SURFING
The peculiarity of this sport is that it depends on unpredictable factors more than any other sport. That’s why the idea of artificial waves seriously interested the Olympic Committee. Moreover, the technology associated with artificial waves develops from year to year. There are many examples of such pools, but usually they can be safely divided into two main types. Do not forget that it is a sport practiced by people all over the world.
