You might remember Shintaro Hongo from our recent video where we visited him at his new skate house in Japan, or from the newest Timescan video full of Japanese locals.
Shintaro is a big name to watch coming into 2022, and we wanted to get ahead of the curve and get to know him a little better ourselves, so we had him doodle up this One Sheet so you could learn about what makes him tick. He’s constantly on the road these days, so he had to DIY a blank One Sheet on his notebook, which honestly might be the new and improved way we do these things. We’ll see.
Check out his picks and follow the links at the bottom to satiate your curiosity.
P.S. – If you can translate his advice for us in the comments, we’d really appreciate it.
