Yuto Totsuka is now making a good start to keep the podium position unwavering in the halfpipe at world big events such as the World Cup and X Games. At the 2018 Pyeongchang Olympics, he advanced to the final, and although he aggressively attacked, he did not reach the medal, but Totsuka's growth after that is remarkable.At the US OPEN, which ended last season, Totsuka performed overwhelmingly as the world's strongest riders gathered, including Scotty James, who has won several titles and continued to show his strength. We showed off and reached the top.
At the US OPEN, the difficult connection of "FS Double Cork 1440 ~ Cab Double Cork 1260 ~ Switch BS Double Cork 1080", which was the first challenge in this tournament, is perfectly made.He showed us the divine work that is suitable for the top of the current half-pipe scene, which is high rotation and continuous high difficulty.In addition, the first FS Double Cork 1440 is now extremely high and complete, which can be said to be the treasure sword of the legendary family.In the style-oriented section called Modified, which was adopted for the first time this time, he showed an evolutionary performance even in the expressive power of the style that he is currently enthusiastically practicing.
The board that Yuto Totsuka has been using for a long time is REV.
Although it is a standard physique for a Japanese with a height of 169 cm and a weight of 60 kg, it is clear that the performance of the board called REV is a big force for the performance of overwhelming height and high rotation in the world.
"I've been riding REV for a long time, and I trust it because it suits my style," Totsuka himself puts a great deal of trust in REV.When the excellent board performance and Totsuka's extremely high level board control technique are combined, overwhelming results are derived.
The REV is equipped with Yonex's original new structure "STOMP-TECH 3.0" to reduce the weight of the swing weight, which greatly exceeds that of conventional boards.A new material that has both excellent resilience and shock absorption
Use of "NANOMETRIC DR".YONEX's advanced carbon tech that combines highly elastic carbon with carbon tubes built into both ends of the nose and tail
Introducing Nology.In the shape, the deflection is increased by 30% compared to the normal camber, the repulsive force is maximized, and the tail is played more strongly and jumps out into the air.It is a board that has been completed by putting all the cutting-edge technology that YONEX has accumulated so far in order to produce high air with high flight time and stable high rotation spin. The lightness and repulsive force brought to the REV must give a great advantage to the rider's goal of performance.

PRICE: ¥ 98,000
The repulsive force generated by REV allows you to jump higher.Advanced carbon technology at both ends of the nose and tail demonstrates its power
From the nose to the tip of the tail, REV is made with YONEX's particular materials, structure, and shape.It is a finish that gives off the dignity of a board that is truly the most advanced in the world.
ULTIMATE CAMBER, which has 30% more deflection than the conventional type, creates a larger repulsive force and leads to a large scale riding.
At the US OPEN, Totsuka strongly emphasized the evolution of style as well as height and high rotation.I would like to expect further success this season (Photo courtesy of Daniel Honda)
