Shonai Skatepark is a newer park built on the North east side of Nagoya.
Its a huge pre-fabricated park built on an old Tennis court.
I had the stroke of luck of hooking up with Kenji and Kama to head over and go for a shred.
We ended up meeting up with some locals including Yumeka Oda a 15 year old skateboarding obsessed super shredder.
Skatepark Layout
The skatepark consists of a mish mash of banks, ledgers, quarter pipes, rails and boxes covered in skate light with metal down to an old green tennis court concrete base.
KANADE NISHIYAMA
Kanade Nishiyama, what can I say? Silent but deadly… Came into the skatepark quietly and just started ripping! Kanade rides for
*DC Shoes Japan / DC Shoes Site
*DZA Skateboards / DZA Skateboards Site
Kanade was nice enough to let me grab a quick sequence of a back side heal flip front board slide. Sick, & Thank you!
Yumeko Oda
Yumeko Oda maybe on of my favorite next generation female skateboarders out of Japan. I met her at the Matsusaka City Skateboard Park grand opening around 2019. She has a rad attitude, a super crazy desire to be the best and is extremely friendly. Through my many years working in and around skateboarding these are the skills that always seem to accelerate a team player to the next level... Yumeko-chan has a bunch of sponsors so hopefully I get this right
