With the nice weather expected for today and tomorrow was thinking that tomorrow night Thursday 29th would be a good chance for a night session at Yoyogi Park.

Time - Around 7:00pm until whenever
Location: Just inside the West Exit of Yoyogi Park
Closest Station - Yoyogi-koen Chiyoda Line Exit 4

There is nice little slope there undert he lights for slides and carving. It is smooth, basically wide enough, and has a decent run out.

Bring your board and a helmet if you have them. I am planning on bringing an extra deck and a dirtsurfer.

If you can make it please post here.

Skate night is on. We've got no rain and some good enthusiasm so anyone with interest and free time, see you at the park.

Excellent session last night! Skated for a few hours then Thai food and beer in Harajuku. Nice to see so many women and a host of beginning longboarders getting into the scene.

Forgot my camera but will get some shots for the web next time.

Hey there Maya - Don't worry always down for more skating.

Next week is a little nutty on my end but might be able to make something. There are others who couldn't make it last night so who knows. Something good could come together with the right weather.

Damn, looks like I missed one of the rarer nighttime sessions. I was in Osaka on business. 80 hour work weeks have been killing my chances to skate lately.

What up, my names erik preston and i am in tokyo with my buddy joe for the summer. we live near harajuku and yoyogi koen.

were both from the bay area and skate downhill a lot. ive skated with the likes of cliff coleman, jm duran, and noah sakamoto. we brought a couple hybrid cruisers with us to japan.

anytime anyones trying to skate hit us up on this site, especially around yoyogi koen, or really anywhere.

Hey Erik - Glad to hear you're in Tokyo and want to get out skating. Look forward to seeing what you learned from those masters of flow and sharing the wealth with us over here.

I don't have any info on this weekend's weather but might be able to get out early Sunday. I think Border is in town and maybe one or two other guys.
We often start not far from Harajuku so could arrange something pretty easy.
