Always a treat to see Akira Okamura, any footage nowadays is kind of golden. So today, I a stoked to come across his qualification run from this years Flatark. Enjoy!

one of my all time favorite Japanese riders, still pulling out things i’ve never seen before like that fork glide hop to forward rope at 2:10
He’s alwaYS FRESH,NEVER STALE!!!
So rad!
Damn ……..he RULED this comp run ! Nailed a lot of his original stuff . Really stoked on this . He should enter M.O.C. , for real !
So awesome whenever he comes out and competes nowadays… judges probably didn’t know what to do with themselves watching a steamroller-free run like this. Flatland god status achieved when no one can touch your tricks decades after you invented them; only riders like Akira, Martti, and a tiny number of other folks in that pantheon. =)
