What a weekend for Yu Katagiri !!!! Taking the win earlier today Arkleague after his win Chimera A-side yesterday! Yu was followed on the podium by Yohei Uchino & Naoto Tamaru you can watch the event on our Instagram story today! Best trick format and the riders pushing to the max!
Battling the weather elements today. Congratulations to Yu Katagiri stepping up his level today to take the top spot, followed by Toon Pakphum and Sietse van Berkel who both had amazing runs. The weather forecast isn’t great for tomorrow, but hopefully we can make finals happen. Top eight goes through to the finals.
Who doesn’t love a bike check? I’m always curious about people’s set ups, and what you can bring to your own set up. With the help of David Paterson over at We the People HQ, today we are able to bring this exclusive feature on Naoto Tamaru’s new WTP Utopia ride, and his new signature parts which have some interesting tweaks, let’s get into it!
Big news today! Japanese stylecat Naoto Tamaru just got on We the People team. So well deserved, here’s hoping for a welcome edit Naoto!
Wow this edit took me back to those Japanese KOG edits that would feature the top 8 all dropping bangers. You don’t want to miss this, incredible riding from Ryo Katagiri, Fumiya Kanna, Hiroya Morizaki, Yu Shoji, Moto Sasaki, Yu Katagiri, Takato Moriya, and winner Naoto Tamaru! The level is insane!!!
Massive congratulations to Naoto Tamaru who just took a huge win at Arkleague in Yokohama Japan followed on the podium by young bucks Takato Moriya & Yu Katagiri!
If anyone has any video footage from this please get in touch, thanks!

I literally just posted the results from the Jeep Real Games not even an hour ago, and the final presentation of all the finalists is online already! Yohei Uchino discusses the level of riding (unfortunately not translated), but you can work out the riding!
The riding starts at the 16 minute mark with Akira Okamura, Kio Hayakawa, Ryo and Yu Katagiri, Takahiro Enoki, Hiroya Morizaki (look out for his mind blowing new whopper move to steam!), and Naoto Tamaru!
The presentation like a TV game show style, is really awesome and a fitting way to showcase some of the best contest riding I have even seen. Congratulations to Hiroya Morizaki once again and all the finalists, absolutely mind blowing level!!!
Yohei Uchino just posted the BIG news of the day, Hiroya Morizaki held onto the first place spot from qualifying to win arguably the highest level contest of the year at the Jeep Real Games. Congratulations Hiro!!!
Hiroya was followed by young rippers, Kio Hayakawa and Ryo Katagiri. The video are just dropping on instagram, so get ready to have your mind blown. I will try to get some on here if possible.
Something a little different right here, Yohei Uchino introduces his new flatland/skateboard park, it is pretty incredible in my opinion that Ucchie can make this happen. From the tone of this video, it looks like there will be plenty more updates from this amazing facility in Japan!
Congratulations to Hiroya Morizaki who took the top spot in the one of the highest level contests to go down in flatland history! If you haven’t already watched the Must Watch video (entries) below this post, I suggest you get on that. Japan is on another level right now, the finals is going to be insane!!! Who is your money on?
