Mami Tezuka pro for Blood Wizard

[TastyBurrito]

Legit enjoy her skating. Such a ripper at 14.

[mynameisnotjeff]

I thought she was older.
Her last Thrasher part was sick.

[ziggy]

the graphic is just like Sakura Yosozumi’s

I wish board companies would steer away from such obvious imagery

I legit wonder how much input people have on stuff like this. Either way she rips

[SneakySecrets]

yeah, she rips. and if she likes her graphics, then cool

[cucktard]

Pretty sure she’s at least 18.
(Edit-she’s 20)

But her mom, no idea. I met them both and though she was Maki’s sister (she skates pretty well too)

But about fucking time, she rips. I think I might have to get the deck Lizzie’s holding

[manysnakes]

According to Google, Mami is 33.

[Rune Spliffberg]

wowww those graphics are sooooo sick totally have never seen that near-exact imagery anywhere else when a Japanese person is turned pro by an American company.

barf.

[PatrickSkateman]

The board on the left is fire. Maybe she’s proud of her Japanese heritage, as she should be.

Yeah, because they’re Blood Wizard boards.

Also, still not as good of a cultural graphic as Yuto’s debut pro model.

Lmao.

Yeah the graphics. Did she want that? Kinda lame that the Skaters from Japan are just marketed as the Japanese person on teams. I’m sure no mamis guey has some shit she’s into. Good thing she rips to destroy those boards lol

Reminds me of the section in pretty sweet where all the people from Spanish speaking countries skated to that shitty hotel California cover like bro there’s tons of good music in Spanish and you chose that. Mamime la verga pinche Ty

Cons Brazil video was cool had some music that seemed like shit the skaters would listen to. That’s what cool about sk9 videos. Show me your little world and what ur into while you do those tricks

[FatGuy92]

Definitely not 14. She just turned 20 I guess since she posted her seijin shiki photos this year. I'm hyped for her definitely well deserved. Graphics only slightly better than that shit Powell put out for Sakura though.

A tragic travest.

Ranking of worst cliche graphics for a Japanese rider

1- Shin Sanbongi’s surf graphic

2- Sakura Yosozumi’s skeleton geisha with a sword and fan

3- Mami’s. But at least the one in the left seems to be self-consciously cheesy.

What Japanese riders had actually decent graphics?

Right now I can only think of Toyota’s classic Cat and Mouse graphic from Santa Cruz

Hosois rising sun is the actual worst but can't decide if him choosing it for himself makes it worse or better.
Gou miyagi had a some graphics of chopsticks but may of been his own idea.

Hosoi recanted and dropped the rising sun after learning what it meant to other asians

A) should of already known in the 80s b) it was back within a couple months https://selectskateshop.com/collections/hosoi-skateboards/products/hosoi-rising-sun-logo-t-shirt still even in t shirt form which id say is actually worse than boards because it's not even skate history/nostalgia

Not a board graphic, but I’ll just leave this here.

[tuesday]

hyped for her

[cky enthusiast]

she fucking shreds. hella deserved. pros should do their own graphics

[Prostate Exam]

Looks like they went through the dumpsters behind Powell's art departement

[PatrickSkateman]

While we’re at it, let’s call Evisen out for their stereotypical Japanese art direction as well.

…and DGK for culturally appropriating Japanese art on some of their decks and shirts.

[Deer Legs]

She fuckin’ rips, well deserved. Beautiful front smiths. Wish the graphics weren’t so heinous. Or had better dimensions so I could support. So I’ll just golf clap from the sidelines instead.

Evisen is a Japanese brand though?
