【Yuto Horigome Player Profile】
Born on January 7, 1999, from Tokyo.
Started skateboarding at the age of 6 under the influence of his father, who was a skater, and consistently ranked high in domestic competitions from his early teens. Although he had extensive experience overseas, he achieved a full-fledged move to the United States after graduating from high school. In 2017, he earned the opportunity to compete in the Street League, the world's top skateboarding competition, which was a remarkable feat in itself. From his first participation, he immediately achieved multiple podium finishes. In 2018, he won his first championship and quickly established himself as one of the world's top athletes. In 2019, he became the first Japanese to win the XGAMES in Minneapolis in the same event, and also won the Street League in Los Angeles. He finished as the runner-up in the World Championships. In 2021, he won the World Championships, avenging his previous loss, and became the first gold medalist in the men's street skateboarding event at the Tokyo Olympics.
