Hiroaki Kunitake

BRIEF INTRODUCTION

He discovered his passion for snowboarding at the age of three. At just 13, he won silver at his first international competition, setting an early example of his exceptional talent.


His impressive development led him further and further up the rankings in both national and international competitions, until he finally competed in the Olympic Games in PyeongChang at the age of 15.


At the 2022 Olympic Games in Beijing, he achieved the best result of a Japanese rider in the Big Air competition, finishing in 4th place. But that wasn't all: In the summer of the same year, he managed to land the extremely difficult FS Quad 1800 in New Zealand – a trick mastered by very few.


With his unique style and relentless ambition, he constantly strives for new heights. His journey is far from over – he is working tirelessly to redefine the boundaries of snowboarding.
