SK8 the Infinity

Langa, a transfer student from Canada, meets Reki, a high school student who loves skateboarding. Reki seems to be hooked on “S,” a dangerous and secret race that is held in an abandoned mine. Langa, who was looking for a part-time job, heads to the “S” venue together with Reki as an assistant. There, the nemesis Shadow who caused Reki’s injury taunts Reki, and Langa, who has no experience skating, gets roped in, as well!

Langa, winning the beef against Shadow, turns out to be experienced in snowboarding. As he gains attention in the “S” community as the mysterious rookie, Langa wants to feel the tingling sensations felt during the beef again and decides to learn skating from Reki. Langa is bewildered with the differences from snowboarding, but thanks to Reki, he learns of the fun of skating and its infinite possibilities.

As Langa quickly improves, Miya the 7th grader and candidate for the Japanese national team challenges him to a beef. Reki’s worries aside, Langa accepts the beef. Miya’s high-level skating skills overwhelm the pair. Reki, who keeps Langa company during practice for his sake, notices something. And the time for the beef against Miya arrives. What Reki entrusts Langa with is…

Adam, a legendary skater and the creator of “S” appears in front of Langa after his victory over Miya. Reki challenges Adam to a beef when he insults Miya, and Adam accepts on the condition that he gets to race against Langa, as well. Miya teaches Reki a difficult skate trick that might help him win this reckless challenge. After intense training with his friends, Reki’s beef against Adam finally begins!

Reki suffers heavy injuries in his beef against Adam. Now, Langa must go on a beef against Adam. Reki doesn’t want to feel what he has in the past and tells Langa to stop, but Langa’s strong determination is unwavering. Reki and Langa seek out Cherry blossom and Joe to hear more stories about Adam. There, a tactical meeting in order to win against Adam is held. Will Langa be able to defeat Adam’s impregnable Love Hug?

Reki’s injuries from the beef against Adam have yet to heal, and with Miya’s advice, the group heads to Miyakojima for some hot spring therapy. They bump into Cherry blossom and Joe there, and end up having a beef to see who will be the first to make it along the path to the secret spring. A suspicious shadow descends upon them. It seems there’s a rumor that this island “has” something…
