Show Notes

We are all scared of something, aren’t we? But imagine the fear that is racing through the veins of a BMX rider at the Olympics: it’s dangerous and some of your peers have struggled with life-changing injuries. So how can you compete with complete focus? We take advice from Olympic champion Connor Fields who says conquering fear is just part of his job. We also have skateboarder Shuriken Shannon who talks about what spooks him out. Plus, Shannon speaks on behalf of the skateboarding community about their fears about the sport’s inclusion at Tokyo 2020.
