Both "Raimu" and "Aimu" are キラキラ names, plus they rhyme, not surprising people will mix em up.

He's so sick, saw him shred in Japan a couple times last year when I was out there as well as when he skated Tampa.  Illest steez...Don't want to step on any toes of my boys over at 'Es but I back this dude hard.

Check the footy of him in the primitive Japan tour blog showing people how he kick flips
Very reminiscent of J Wray’s technique!

Dude's trying to manifest a growth spurt or something
Hopefully not a kook, but if so, fuck it.

He's really good and all but something about his style bugs me, maybe those spaghetti arms after every landing. Looks way too forced to me.

He’s undeniably talented, looks like PJ levels of skill…but he’s got hella fake steeze and the forced/constant smiling is annoying as fuck

his foot placement seems counterintuitive for a frontside flip. I had to rewatch it a bunch just to confirm whether he was heelflipping or not. There’s no way I could get my board to flip setting up like that.

I thought the same too. I have kickflipped like this for the past couple of years ever since i started actually trying to do them higher. It prevents rocket flipping. I could frontside flip like this too. It's easier to do with smaller boards (7.5-7.75) and size 13 shoes. You really have no choice.

That's the Jeremy Wray kickflip foot placement like mentioned earlier in this thread. Watch Jeremy Wray rolling up to the Carlsbad gap fs flip in the opening line of Second Hand smoke, toes over the edge of the board.

This guy Aimu is amazing.

Yes it is. That is who i got it from. Jeremy Wray. And there was this other japanese dude in skate archives that did that as well. This was back in 2008.

Some of the weird projections and criticisms are out of hand lol like hating on his "forced smiling" wtf. How do you know that shit is forced without being inside his mind? He's a young kid that rips what's not to smile about.

My favorite skaters are edgy androgynous teenagers in highwater pants and ironic thrift store sweater vests flailing their way through ride-on grinds while 100 Gecs blasts in the background, it's just so much more real and raw.
It's so try-hard how this guy is all hyper-talented and having fun and shit.
