at the world championships all while still in her teens. and now she's looking forward to her next olympics. although there'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 parallel price, you can fuel event through a police ah, up out of the subway and straight on to her board to the skate park. lily has joined to 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 on the journey nurse, but he's now going back home. that's

a new situation for don't, that's all my dad's not having my parents here means i have to find things out for myself. who makes them over, sir, may i often was those a lot more that i had to keep in mind thinking and that i might forget as long there's nobody to remind me of things or say, carry my backpack for me. i have to take care of everything myself, alice, i align and manage and most this is only happened once before. but still lily's got used to going abroad for training or competitions. although she is still a minor over her and she's far from the only one in the skateboarding scene, the 2020 olympic champ from japan was just 13. when she won golds. germany's head coach, yoga and heart loan 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 die is. this is of he and phone when all he's not there. so it's definitely different than it is. she has a slightly different mindset of nurses. i guess she feels more relax, but it's in look of. it's just her an asset that she's a bit more liberated from those family structures. gone steven from me and talked to her and being a deed of for harshness. i heard months of ada tried to, i'm going for an hour, but feel scared and don't know whether to commit this month for a few hours of incident that is actually crucial to you of you really trying to get up here, which is why you're changing your twist for enough to sunday, but jumping really high here. wind in will to right in the light, the spring rush this the semester, the concerns. well not every come in on much you but i did at least make it this.

the ira. none of your right. this was from of the coach knows the next couple of years will be pivotal. oh yeah. says missing of roxanne, this got the trick. this luxury has grown up a bit and is gradually getting more strength of the info for escaping has changed since we were in tokyo. so you know, any i hear she's made hugely scored since then. and there's a lot more to complicated mafia. she'll have more hot in her as sustained more pace too soon. but yes. with maria green, billionaires and saudi, but did with meg finished her tom 2020. so skateboarding make it said impact debut 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 with me. i know you've qualified for the olympics. that's what i am concentrating on right now in pres order. houghton mccalla, my son constantly lump 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 u. s. 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 negotiations. good. i'm not sure that's the right way there is to get vegas musician. mention even are these kids getting properly prepared to life in society outside skateboarding? aah! back in berlin lilies 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 another sport,

lamb can scans, i have other athletes with completely different and really problematic set ups em, laughlin, i, skaters or swimmers on where they're training every day at the age of 6 or 7 fine hyphen provo, her m. then lillian lilly trained once or twice away her and that makes a difference in dover dust mother. so he does not want a sheet map and 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 was 5 1st once a week and then progressively more until her appearance at the 2020 olympics, which most people at her school know about personal time. the houses are sometimes they ask about how she or i feel during the competitions and our ha, but i don't find it annoying. now rule as mentioned, you know,

some teachers might know because the reading the news. but your average pupil has no idea who i am 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 in humor, lee, no. i normally have a plan for which will occur to me when i go to bed. and while i'm sleeping alpha for yeah, i know the, you know, the, i'll think of this or that trick that we can do and was in for this. i mean, it's not as if we have no plan this why, although there's certainly no yearly regimen alice plan the hob would as a west oliver is a quantity of resolve should if you normally schools over a quarter past 3 for some few 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 sleep while we're on the way there week. then we're busy until around $730.00. so we back home at 8 or $830.00 more into wickland and gibbs and after dinner, it's time for homework. so she does have a pretty full schedule one petition. so come, ah, there's news just in from rio about disagreements between the world skateboarding association and the brazilian 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. ah, nazareth of scathing grades with
