adidas Skateboarding is out to prove that its global team has some serious skills and even more tricks up the sleeve. In a new video drop, the Three Stripes heads to Japan to highlight its team out there which includes Shin Sanbongi, Kota Ikeda, Laurence Keefe, Yoshiaki Toeda, Issei Kumatani, Seimi Miyahara, and Hiroki Muraoka.

Directed by filmmaker Patrik Wallner, we see the squad rip up Tokyo’s parks, busy streets, residential obstacles as well as corporate structures. Each rider shows no mercy to the concrete facades and metal railings as aggression, control and personal style are executed through every turn and trick. Watch the full short video above and sound off in the comments.
