Let’s cut to the chase. Kyonosuke Yamashita, or Kyo for short, is having a great year so far. Recently dropping a seven-minute part in Primitive’s AM video and getting comfortable in LA, he’s already one of the best of 2024.
Before he grows up, joins the Olympics and leaves us in the dust we thought it would be a good time to spend the day with the young, upbeat, Dr. Pepper obsessed Japanese skater.
Check it out, and if you’ve been bragging about your flatground game to your friends be prepared to be humbled.
