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.

Check it out, and if you’ve been bragging about your flatground game to your friends be prepared to be humbled.
