Re: World Skate Games 2022 - Web site

This website is now pretty much ready, a bit late. !

http://wsgargentina2022.com/
They still claim 7000 athletes, 80 countries and 10 sports.
That's quite a bold claim given that Barcelona had 4000 participants in 2019. Not sure the 7000 figure is accurate now that the registration has closed.
