DEELUXE ATV Part 2: Japan's New Wave of Street Snowboarders

Japan has long been hailed as a powder paradise, drawing riders from around the globe to its legendary backcountry. But a new wave is reshaping the scene — Japan’s street snowboarders are stepping into the spotlight. With creativity and style, they’re turning urban landscapes into their playground, showcasing lines as clean as their pow turns. This emerging generation proves that Japan’s snowboarding culture isn’t limited to deep snow—it thrives just as much on concrete and rails. Takashi Tamamura , Himari Takamori and Yuta Watanabe pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in Japan's streets.
