The 2024 Scootering Park World Championships lit up the night in Ostia with an unforgettable display of talent, jaw-dropping tricks, and historic moments that had the crowd on the edge of their seats. From the juniors to the elite men’s final, the competition was nothing short of epic.
Junior Park World Championships: A New Star is Born
The night kicked off with the Junior Park World Championships, where Australia’s Taj Shambrook stole the spotlight. Taj threw down one of the wildest runs ever seen in a junior competition, earning his first Junior World Championship title in spectacular fashion. Hot on his heels, Germany’s Bastian Brey and New Zealand’s Barney Sullivan completed the podium, both delivering performances that could’ve easily been gold-medal-worthy in any other event. The talent in the junior division this year is off the charts, and the future of the sport looks brighter than ever.
Women’s Park Final: Claire Parks Defends Her Crown
In the women’s park competition, reigning champion Claire Parks from the USA successfully defended her world title with a flawless run that showcased her precision, style, and consistency. But it wasn’t a walk in the park—British rider Neve Entwistle, fresh off her top spot in the semi-finals, pushed Claire to the limit. Keep an eye on Poland’s Maja Dudek as well—at just 16 years old, she’s already making waves and is sure to be a future force in the sport.
Men’s Park Final: History Made Under the Lights
The night’s climax came with the men’s park final, a showdown featuring 10 of the world’s best riders in a battle for the coveted world title. The energy was electric as the athletes threw down trick after trick, leaving the crowd in awe. In the end, it was Great Britain’s Jayden Sharman who etched his name in the history books with a groundbreaking run that included the first-ever 900 flair landed in competition. It was the run of a lifetime, and it secured him the gold. Fellow Brit Jordan Clark gave it everything in his quest for another world title but had to settle for second, while Calum Connor, also from the UK, took third with a high-flying, gravity-defying performance.
