Japanese skater?

[animalflesh]

I remember seeing him posted before, wide board loose trucks kinda small wheels

Doing some surfy tricks around a city lots of night clips

Anybody? Thank you

[Mean salto]

Surfy tricks at night is pretty much every Japanese skater. You might have to spend some time scrolling VHS mag insta

[botefdunn]

oh yeah you're talking  about the guy who has the bucket hat in some clips right?

[djoekr]

Takahiro Morita?

[animalflesh]

I think he had a bucket hat in a few clips yeah

Younger than Takahiro and maybe had a chopped up grip job too?

His board was kind of a boat I think wider than his trucks and jiggly loose trucks

@Thom @Thom (it never tags the right one) thank you for making this thread and @silhouette thank you for your (now bookmarked) post. This is exactly the kind of skating I've been looking for recently.

You guys are welcome. These days I've been super into watching Teppei Ono's old edits in particular. So this may be another good plug: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvJM5wnXCGpfWQtcBKhZ5sw

Kenta Okamoto's videos are great, too, he definitely has his own style when it comes to filming and soundtracks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwIqPnXR-U3jiZjJBFFKzBQ

Ugly Weapon is sick, especially the non-HD clips: https://www.youtube.com/user/tomotokyoskate

Since Shinpei Ueno was mentioned (x4), here's one of my favorite lesser seen parts of him:



And my favorite Gou part:



Blows my mind whenever people assume he's not a skilled skater. Watch 1:06 or 1:41 in this and tell me that isn't fucked up.

Of and of fucking course,

Keep the recommendations coming man, I've always been a fan of the Japanese skateboarding scene and I really enjoy the skaters I didn't know before. Also, anyone who thinks that Gou is only about wiggling his board between his legs and weird shit is objectively wrong. The guy has some serious control while grinding on round rails. His Overground Broadcasting part is sick as well, hell the whole FESN video is. I prefer watching guys like Gou and Chopper get creative with their trick selection over the 1000th frontside flip down a stair.

To stay somewhat on topic, I want to watch the FESN full lengths but could only really find Overground Broadcasting uploaded. Does anyone have a source where they can be found online?
