Resumo: Introducing skateboarding as a sport in the 2020 summer Olympic Games sheds light on a practice usually marginalized, even in Brazil. To assess how Olympic Games' skateboarding impacted Brazilians' enthusiasm, this study analyzed search volumes on Google Trends and compared them with global data. After collecting and processing data, we identified that the average interest in skateboarding in Brazil before the Olympic Games was 4.5 times lower than the world average. During the event, Brazil was the country that most searched about skateboarding — a potential consequence of winning medals by Brazilian athletes. However, the growing popularity of skateboarding in Brazil evokes the difficulties that skateboarders face, such as the lack of regulation. The Brazilian Traffic Code does not recognize skateboarding as a vehicle, thus exposing users to risks on the roads.

Para evaluar el impacto del skate en los Juegos Olímpicos en interés de los brasileños, este estudio analizó los volúmenes de búsqueda en Google Trends y los comparó con datos globales. Luego de recolectar y procesar datos, se identificó que el interés promedio por el término skate en Brasil antes de los Juegos Olímpicos era 4.5 veces menor que el promedio mundial. Durante el evento, Brasil fue el país más interesado en el tema, una posible consecuencia de la obtención de medallas por parte de los atletas brasileños. Sin embargo, la creciente popularidad del skate en Brasil evoca las dificultades que enfrentan los practicantes de este deporte en el país, como la falta de regulación.
