Skater Nyjah Huston, representing the US team, said that the medals at the Paris Olympics were of poor quality. He explained this on his social networks.
“The medals are amazing when they’re brand new. After letting my friends wear them over the weekend they started looking worse. They’re clearly not that good,” Huston wrote.
He won a bronze medal in a Houston street skateboarding competition.
