Bristol transplant in China, [https://www.instagram.com/danwileman86/](https://www.instagram.com/danwileman86/) , is at the Tokyo games as a coach with the Chinese team. It’s been interesting to see what he’s been up to over the past few years, and how goddamn enormous the streetpark is.

Forum sweepstake? Mens park/street then womens park/street if enough people wanted in. Or pick a country and then highest points/medals wins the pot

I wouldn’t advise betting on it but if you fancy a bit for fun then…..back Yuto.
