SK8 The Infinity is an interesting anime made by Bones studio that explores the world of skateboarding. It tells the story of two good friends, namely Reki Kyan and Langa Hasegawa, who have a hobby of skateboarding.
They were both involved in an illegal race known as "S". There are many great skateboarders who have high level skills. Not only that, they are free to do anything during the race, including using dirty tricks.
On this occasion, MogiMogy would like to discuss eight greatest skateboarders in the SK8 The Infinity. Who are they? Check out the complete discussion below!
8. Shadow
First of all, there is the skateboarder known as Shadow. He has the appearance of a metal musician. In addition, he often behaves aggressively towards opponents who compete against him in “S”.
Shadow basically has impressive talent and skills as a skateboarder. Unfortunately, he really likes using dirty tricks to bring down his opponents on the race track. Examples are the Haemanthus Bomb and Gladiolus Laser attacks.
7. Reki
In contrast to Shadow, Reki is a hardworking skateboarder who upholds the value of sportsmanship. He emphasizes technique and ability rather than using dirty tricks.
Reki also has extensive insight into the world of skateboarding. He is even able to design a skateboard in his private workshop. Despite this, Reki is still inferior to skateboarders much more talented than him, such as Miya and Langa.
6. Miya
Miya is a young skateboarder who represents Japan. He is very popular among skateboard lovers. He initially had a very arrogant nature. However, he becomes friendlier after he becomes good friends with Reki and Langa.
Miya is able to perform various high-level tricks that are not easy to master. He often gets involved in matches in “S”, such as when he fought Langa and a mysterious skateboarder called “Snake”.
5. Snake
Snake first appeared in a tournament held by Adam. He was seen wearing a hat and covering his face so he looked very mysterious. His real identity is Tadashi Kikuchi aka Adam/Ainosuke's personal secretary.
Tadashi was the person who first introduced Adam to the world of skateboarding. He personally has impressive abilities. He is able to go fast and looked like he is dancing on the track.
4. Joe
Joe is known as a skateboarder who relies on muscle and physical strength. He had a famous reputation in “S”, especially among the girls. Apart from that, he seems to have a fierce rivalry with Cherry.
When racing on the track, Joe can speed up his skateboard with his physical abilities. He has interesting moves, such as Power Break and Missile Style. When he is in serious mode, he will be a difficult enemy to defeat.
3. Cherry
Cherry and Joe are basically on the same level because the comparison of their strengths is very close. However, Cherry looks slightly superior because she uses a skateboard equipped with an advanced AI system called Carla.
Carla is very intelligent and able to respond to orders from Cherry. This system can calculate distances and turning angles with a high level of accuracy. Apart from that, the system can change the skateboard mode used by Cherry according to needs.
2. Adam
Adam is a legendary skateboarder and founder of "S". He always wears a mask to hide his true identity. In everyday life, he works as a politician named Ainosuke Shindo.
Adam is known by the nickname "The Matador of Love". He really likes destroying other skateboarders with his ultimate technique, namely the Love Hug. He is also able to enter a condition called the Zone so that his ability level is in a different dimension.
1. Langa
Langa really deserves to be called the greatest skateboarder in the SK8 The Infinity story because he has defeated strong players, such as Miya, Joe, and Adam. Even though he is still a beginner, he is able to master high-level skateboarding techniques in a short time.
Langa is known by the nickname “Snow” because his playing style is similar to that of a snowboarder. He has been snowboarding since he was a child. This experience became an important foundation for Langa to become a great skateboarder.
