  • Pro Skateboarder Kyonosuke Yamashita Leaves Lakai to Put Asics in the Streets

    Credit: Erased; Asics

    Kyonosuke Yamashita on  Asics , Kyonosuke Yamashita just switched it up heavy. He’s no longer rocking with Lakai and is now officially rolling with Asics Skateboarding.

    That move right there is straight power since Asics is from his own country and it feels like he’s putting on for Japan in a big way.The Lakai spot didn’t stay empty for long though. Chris Joslin slid right in and now he’s carrying that torch. Anybody who’s seen Joslin skate knows he goes all out every time, so Lakai stacking him on the roster makes sense. Still, Yamashita leaving leaves a mark because he’s been one of the illest names to represent the team out of Asia.For Asics, they made sure the whole world knew what time it was. They dropped that “A Guided Tour” full length on Thrasher to stamp their name in skateboarding culture. That wasn’t just some throwaway clip either. It was a full project showing they’re not playing around and they’re here to grow in the skate world with skaters who actually matter.Yamashita making this move is deeper than just a  shoe deal.It’s like he’s tying himself closer to his roots while putting himself in position to go global at the same time.Skateboarding never stops switching up and this just shows how worldwide it really is now. Yamashita with Asics feels like the start of something bigger, like Japan really about to step louder into the game.

  • THE SKATEBOARD MAG FOUNDING EDITOR & OG SKATER KEVIN WILKINS HAS PASSED AWAY

    The skate world lost a real one. Kevin Wilkins, the founding editor of The Skateboard Mag and one of the OGs who helped shape how the culture was told, has passed away after a long fight with cancer. He was more than an editor. He lived skating, he breathed it, and he carried the stories that made it real. People in the scene knew Kevin as someone solid. He showed love to everyone who cared about skateboarding. He never acted like he was above anyone. He loved music, books, art, and all the things that made life worth talking about. He could go from cracking jokes to dropping real talk without missing a beat. He was someone who made people feel like they belonged. His GoFundMe page, organized by Annie Wilkins, gave everyone a glimpse of what he and his family were going through, and how strong they stayed through it all.
