Rider Spotlight: Ayato Kimura
We’re beyond excited to have Ayato Kimura; one of Japan’s most electrifying MTB trials riders — joining us in Niseko! At just 20, Ayato’s fusion of urban freeride, competition trials, and street tricks has made him a standout in the mountain biking world.
-
Viral Star: His viral video clips, like Tropical Vibes – Ayato’s Way, showcase stair-set stunts, massive gaps, wall rides, and a front-flip that cemented his creative flair—racking millions of views online.
-
Pro Recognition: Ayato recently joined the Red Bull family—where downhill legends Loic Bruni and Brook MacDonald surprised him with a Red Bull helmet during an event in Nagano.
Don’t miss his clinic — this is your chance to ride alongside, learn from, and celebrate a true rising star in MTB Trials.
