把滑板比赛推向新的高度和规模的街式滑板比赛Street League Skateboarding (以下简称SLS)近日又有大的动作——与著名体育频道ESPN的经典极限赛事X Games展开全面合作,合作内容包括即将到来的巴西、西班牙、德国和洛杉矶本土X Games男子街式滑板项目全部由SLS组织举办,而这些赛事也会成为SLS 2013年直接tour的一部分,由ESPN和ESPN2两个频道展开电视直播。
Street League Skateboarding (SLS) – the preeminent competitive series in professional skateboarding worldwide – has reached agreement with ESPN to be the official sport organizer for all Men’s Skateboard Street competitions at the upcoming X Games international events in Brazil, Spain and Germany along with the Los Angeles event in August. Additionally, those four events will be part of the seven-stop 2013 SLS World Tour, and televised on ESPN and ESPN2.

2010年开始的SLS有几个特点绝对抓住了滑板世界的眼球——20个顶尖职业滑手,有趣味和挑战性的并存的滑板场地以及有史以来业界最高的,高达200万美元的奖金。

Launched in 2010, SLS features 20 of the world’s best street skateboarders competing in an easy-to-follow, instant scoring format on one-of-a-kind concrete skate plazas with the largest prize purse in skateboarding history at $2 million.

“The X Games and Street League collaboration will allow ESPN to provide continuity throughout the skate competition season and showcase the world’s best street skaters to all of the X Games events globally,” said Tim Reed, ESPN senior director content strategy. “In addition, ESPN is thrilled to be the exclusive live platform for the Street League world tour and looking forward to documenting all of the stories and highlights year round on xgames.com.”

2013年SLS世界巡回的安排如下:

The dates and venues for the 2013 SLS World Tour are:

Stop One: Street League at X Games – Foz do Iguaçu, Brazil (April 18 – 21)

Stop Two: Street League at X Games – Barcelona, Spain (May 16 – 19)

Stop Three: Sprint Center – Kansas City, Mo. (June 9)

Stop Four: Street league at X Games – Munich, Germany (June 27 – 30)

Stop Five: Rose Garden – Portland, Ore. (July 14)

Stop Six: Street League at X Games – Los Angeles (August 1 – 4)

Championship: Prudential Center – Newark, NJ (August 25)

SLS的创造者,也是著名职业滑手,电视节目主持人Rob Dyrdek认为这与ESPN合作对SLS的全球推广是一件非常重要的机会,不仅仅是给SLS的粉丝带来更多内容,更是给SLS一个全球的冲击

“There is no better opportunity to elevate Street League globally than our new partnership with the X Games,” says Street League creator Rob Dyrdek. “By launching a fully connected world tour, our pros now have six events to qualify into the Championship, with each tour stop utilizing the standard Street League format, course design, and prize money that has helped establish the series as the most elite tour in skateboarding. This partnership not only gives more to our fans but also adds undeniable media support from ESPN to give the league a true global impact.”

在这个新的合作模式下,SLS也发布了一项“SLS Select Series”的职业资格赛,这个比赛要在每个巡回赛主办地选出10个初选职业滑手和5个本地滑手。这15个人要在X GAMES SLS的场地中争取自己进入职业比赛的机会。而这个附加赛事的前两名滑手将有资格进入明年的SLS世界Tour

With this partnership, SLS is also launching the first-ever pro qualifier called the SLS Select Series. The SLS Select Series consists of 10 pre-qualified professional skateboarders and five local skateboarders from each X Games host city. The 15 skaters compete on the same course used for Street League at X Games for a chance to compete in that Street League at X Games Pro Event. The top two overall ranked athletes in the 4-stop SLS Select Series will qualify into next year’s SLS World Tour.
