Himari Takamori Born on January 18, 2008, from Aichi Prefecture, she is a professional snowboarder. She is a member of the international team for the snowboard brand CAPiTA and is also active as a rider for the American headwear brand COAL. She always wears COAL and broadcasts the brand's identity and appeal widely through her riding and style.

Standing at the pinnacle of 'The Uninvited Invitational' this time, she also secured the Best Trick award. Her Back Lipslide Tail 270 out, in particular, overwhelmed the audience with its height and perfection, rivaling male riders. Her run, pulling off a trick on the world stage that is impossible without high technical skill, courage, and the confidence to back it up, was truly worthy of being called a "complete victory."

She has been competing in this event since its inaugural run, when she was only 14 years old. Starting as the sole Japanese participant drawing attention, she has finally seized the title she wanted most after several years. Her growth has left a strong impact not only in Japan but on the global snowboard scene.

Hinano Sakamoto The two teammates are good rivals who constantly compete for championships. 14-year-old COAL international rider Hinano Sakamoto put up a great fight to finish 4th! She won the Rookie of the Year award at last year's tournament and achieved victory at the first-ever The Uninvited Invitational Japan.
