news of stuff. i used to be able to do it with my family muma convents. my little sister's escape word or 2 semester on this. that was really cool then. and now i see skateboarding is simply a sports in which there are no rules for and you're kind of free and get ideas of his fries icon lilies to fuzzy as became the youngest sports women in german olympic history to make the national team a natural born border genius or crimson yards lilies 15 now and has already been in the squad since 2019 and all this part of this. so gosh, and bio didn't. yeah. she was at the tokyo games and his way up there among the worlds bellnick. r. bye and baker. soon but in fallen cummins are at 1st it was primarily about the fun rather than competing with like amazon i started getting better and better at android and when i became german champion there was no beating

me best in germany. second that the european championships answered at the world championships all while still in her teens. and now she's looking forward to her next olympics. although that's 1st the minor matter of securing qualification. the goal is to conduct the the biggest contest is the world championship in real button view. also because it's the most important meets when it comes to qualifying for perio product. you get fuel event through a police ah, up out of the subway and straight on to her board to the skate park. lily has joined other german olympic hopefuls for training in sweden. why here in my more unlike in germany, there's a range of skate parks with conditions similar to those international meet lily's father accompanied her the journey nurse, but he's now gone back home. that's

a new situation for ha done. that's all in my head. i'm not having my parents here means i have to find things out for myself. for me, there was a man often was those a lot more than i had to keep in mind tank and that i might forget for 2nd. there's nobody to remind me of things or say carry my backpack for me. i have to take care of everything myself. alyssa, a line and manage. and was this only happened once before? still lilies got used to going abroad for training or competitions. although she is still a minor and she's far from the only one in the skateboarding seen, the 2020 olympic champ from japan was just 13 when she won golds. germany's head coach, juergen hormone had known lily for years. he used to be

a pro border and like lily lives in berlin, which is where he coaches this exceptional talent together with her dad oliver than orleans does is this is of the info when all is not there. so it's definitely different than it is. she has a slightly different mindset of moses. i guess she feels more relax between local it's just her an offset. she's a bit more liberated from those family structures gone. speaking from a young, she talked to her and being a dude of for her to me. i unheard means of ada i'm going for it, but feel scared and don't know whether to commit. it's clue this month for if it always ovens and that is actually crucial. who's here? you're really trying to get up here as that, which is why you're changing your twist for in us to send them by jumping really high here when they move to light in the latest thing rushed us the semester. the concern for another become enormous you but i did at least make it this the are not

on. if you're right. the 1st from of the coach knows the next couple of years will be pivotal. oh yeah. says missing the vaccine this got the christmas luncheon has grown up a bit and it's gradually getting more strength of info for escape has changed since we were in tokyo and i, i hear she's made huge leaps forward since then. and there's a lot more to come from your market. she'll have more hot in her ears and more pace too. i see. and but yes. with maria green, billionaires and saudi with the, with meg finished heard her 2020. so skateboarding make it said name pick dubuque, in tokyo, lily narrowly missed out on the final, but just being there gave her a massive confidence based. and now her focus is very much on the world championships in rio de janeiro a few months from now. i lemon, das much whatever. if you finish in the top 3, you can relax. luckily, i know you've qualified for the olympics. that's what i'm concentrating on right now and puzzled us hawkins moment kind of my son constantly along. too much

pressure for a teenager. not in her case for lily, the fun factor and performance go hand in hand. as is the case with a lot of people in the skateboarding scene. although not everyone has such a relaxed set up. the i'd, sooner sooner than a kid student, there are kids who are pushed to make it big in the us at van. and it was out as or but then they don't go to school and only get home schooling she will again, didn't. homeschooling, become so negotiation and i'm not sure that's the right way. there is to get this vision mention even are these kids getting properly prepared for life in society? outside skate boarding game ah, back in berlin. lily's training program involves up to 4 sessions a week, but she's not neglecting her schooling. we join her and her little sister on their way home. really has good grades which matters a lot to her family to and the last board lamb

guns, guns, you have other athletes with completely different and really problematic set ups m look, they know ice skaters or swimmers on where they're training every day at the age of 6 or 7 fine heighten over her. m. bentley leader lily trained once or twice away her. and that makes a difference. tell her dust man to so he doesn't want us. she'd ma'am. oh, her dad used to be a skateboarder himself. he 1st had lily on a board at the tender age of 12 months. oliver started coaching her when she this 5 1st once a week and then progressively more until her appearance at the 2020 olympics, which most people at high school didn't know about those with highly heads as a sometimes they ask about how she or i feel during the competitions and ha, but i don't find it annoying now. rule as many others. some teachers might know

because the reading the news. but your average pupil has no idea who i am in. and there's a similar lack of fast when it comes to training preparations with her father. instead of rigid rules, the focus is more on creative freedom. you really no, i normally have a plan for which will occur to me when i go to bed. and while i'm sleeping offer for yeah, i know the, you know, the, i'll think of this all that trick that we can do and was advised that it's not as if we have no plan. this way. all though there's certainly no yearly regimen. alice planned hardwood as was oliver is a committee of resort should if you normally schools over a quarter past 3 is on for you. and after eating something,

she starts her session at 5 without having had a break. always a good job doing that. so she has a little slate while we're on the way there week, then we're busy until around 730. so we're back home at 8 or 830. i'd lorenzo wickland and gibbs and after dinner, it's time for homework. so she does have a pretty full schedule on patience. ah, but there's news student from rio about disagreements between the world skateboarding association and the precision organizes the event is no longer either a world championship or an olympic qualifier. but for lily, it's about defending her title from 2021 in a country where the sport enjoys a different status. down on the copay, gabana, skateboarding is far more popular than in europe. i was skating grades with

a brazilian audience because they just love this for and are so supportive on. however good or bad you are. so it's always amazing to come here to see how soon his father's funds are. there are. some brazilians skate stars have instagram followings in the millions, the kind of appreciation that you don't see in europe, the line up in rio is absolutely top class d, as in lucy, miss me for an investment. it's really the criminal. the crown is gotten in with the women in particular, the level is really shut up over the past years of missouri extreme, i hope you can see things developing on practically a week by week basis by the invest noise machine. it's easy to forget that competitors like milly, a still essentially kids making the presence of their parents all the more important garcia, nasir yoga, her age makes the organizational side just as important as was, i know there's all making sure she gets 2 or 3 hot meals a day that there's enough money gave for on and that she makes the training on

timing as doesn't english. one of those rich this year. i'm sure she's here with the german team, but they're all adults and aren't necessarily responsive to the needs of a 15 year old thornburg's off. deborah officer and avenue in rio turns out to be challenging in various ways. in addition to seemingly incessant rain, the training runs keep getting postponed until late in the evening. plus lily had a high temperature even before leaving germany, but she did then get off to a good start. one run last was 45 seconds with skates is rated by speed, creativity, the difficulty delivery an range of tricks and that era counts. lilly is known for her stealing nerves. oh, the trials and tribulations don't seem to get to her. except then a brief but faithful lapse of concentration.

ah, perhaps it was all a bit too much for the youngster with the might of tea. my teammates were all in hospital after getting injured, so the mood was a bit down and who was already sick anyway and got slammed on the day of the contents. i saw there were a lot of factors against me and i had to put in my absolute safety rotten woman up . so still finishing and 10th was way more than i imagined. redeemed, seen so bad. this was here at cisco back center. and there weren't any qualification points on the line this time anyway, although for lily, it's not just about the impacts language. i'm not aiming for one particular contest, the student that called to us as a sure the olympics are probably the biggest thing out there. and so does all of us that i just want to carry on skating well together with my friends going from contest to contest and maybe some day turning pro pro skater bad old fine, perhaps prize money and sponsorship deals will mean i can earn a living for
