LORE

Reki Kyan is a 17-year-old high school student who is on an illegal skate racing course in beef with Shadow the 24-year-old skater. While in the middle of the racing shadow throws bombs at Reki causing him to turn into a ditch. This causes his skateboard to be burned because it was part of the bet (beefs in this anime involve bets this one was if Reki lost his skateboard gets burned and I don't know what Shadow's part was in this so). 
Langa Hasegawa is introduced as Reki's new classmate from Canada and Langa has been snowboarding since he was 2. After encountering each other after school, Langa applies for a job at Dope Sketch, where he and Reki are given orders to deliver a skateboard to a client for his next race at S. Reki later discovers he had taken the wrong skateboard, and, as punishment, is ordered to race in place of his client against Shadow. Langa volunteers, and to everyone's surprise, he wins using his experience in snowboarding.
   As Langa and Shadow's beef goes viral, Reki teaches him how to skateboard properly. The two learn each other's motivations for skateboarding as Langa practices, and Reki designs a custom skateboard with foot straps to accommodate Langa's snowboarding experience. After two weeks of practice, Langa manages to perform an. Meanwhile, having learned about Langa, Miya challenges him to a beef.
   Langa accepts Miya's challenge to race at S. While Reki helps Langa practice, he replaces his skateboard's foot straps with toe clips and the pivots with swivels. During the race, Miya wagers Reki as the reward, but Langa wins using the swivel to down a broken stair rail. Realizing that Miya is lonely, especially after he was ostracized by his peers, Reki offers to be his friend. Adam, however, suddenly appears, taking a strong interest in Langa while denouncing Miya. Reki orders Adam to apologize to Miya, challenging him to a beef as means to do so.
   Adam accepts Reki's challenge on the condition Langa races if he wins. Reki and Langa learn from Joe that Adam is the founder of S. Despite Miya, Joe, and Langa's advice to withdraw from from the the challenge, Reki decides to pursue it anyway. During the race, Adam gives Reki a head start and pulls him into a dangerous dance. As Reki loses hope, Langa inspires him to perform a, a trick he learned from Miya, on one of the turns. After passing Reki, Adam performs his love hug, where he turns around and skates uphill towards Reki, causing the latter to panic, fall off his skateboard, and lose.
   Reki's arm is broken, and while Langa prepares for his beef, Cherry and Joe explain Adam's love hug. Reki determines Adam is too dangerous to race and begs Langa not to compete, but Langa insists on doing so. During the beef, Langa outsmarts Adam by pulling him close during their dance to increase their spin and performs an to dodge his love hug. Impressed, Adam entrances Langa to follow his lead. Their race abruptly ends when the police raid the area under orders from Kiriko Kamata. Reki helps Langa flee, after which he makes him promise not to race Adam again.
   Reki, Langa, Miya, and Shadow travel to for the hot springs, along with Cherry and Joe. During their time, Reki begins feeling discouraged when he sees how quickly Langa is improving and confides his insecurities to Joe. In the evening, the six go on a skateboard race to the hot springs amidst warnings of hauntings taking place. When, Langa returns to help a frightened Reki, the two discover that Shadow and Miya have been attacked by the spirits. The spirits then ambush Reki and Langa, as well as Cherry and Joe, who won the race to the hot springs. The next morning, the six wonder who attacked them, unaware that the festival had been taking place on the previous evening. Meanwhile, Adam decides to hold a tournament for S.
   Reki begins to feel inferior towards Langa and avoids him. Meanwhile, Adam colludes with Takano, a politician, while announcing a tournament that evening. However, Kiriko uncovers the bribe and arrests Takano, while Adam orders his secretary, Tadashi, to take the blame for him instead. While practicing, Reki becomes more discouraged about his own skateboarding after failing to jump as high as Langa. At night, when Langa informs Reki about the tournament and his desire to compete against Adam, Reki becomes angry and ends their friendship.
   As Langa, Shadow, Miya, Cherry, and Joe qualify for the tournament, Tadashi also enters under the name "Snake" against Adam's will, on the condition that Adam quits skateboarding if he wins. Meanwhile, Reki remains cold to Langa, and both of them receive advice from their families on their personal struggles. Under the advice of Joe, Reki goes undercover at the next S to watch the tournament. Shadow wins in his beef, while Langa is selected to race against Joe in the next one.
  During their beef, Joe gains a lead over Langa. Langa nearly loses interest in the race, but he wins with Reki's encouragement, despite breaking his board in the process. However, Reki realizes he prefers skating with his friends over supporting them and leaves S before Langa can find him. Cherry is selected as Adam's opponent in the next beef, and despite gaining an advantage, Adam strikes Cherry's face with his skateboard near the end of the race, knocking him out and winning.
   Tadashi wins his race against Miya. Reki takes the next day off from work and school, and after he gets beaten up during a confrontation with his past skating group, Oka informs him that Shadow has been attacked and hospitalized. Reki visits but leaves upon noticing Langa is there, and Tadashi's car runs into him on his way out. Through confronting Tadashi, Reki remembers the fun in skating and goes over to the skate park to apologize to Langa. The two make up, while Adam has Reki take Shadow's spot.
  Reki is determined to skate against Adam despite Tadashi's attempts to dissuade him. During the beef, Adam assaults Reki. As they approach a turn, Reki becomes inspired by Langa to perform an aerial down a cliff. When it starts to rain, Reki takes advantage of rain-resistant wheels he put on his skateboard, while Adam loses footing. As they approach the end of the track, Reki loses after one of the wheels come off, but the enjoyment of skating excites him and the crowd cheers for him instead. Realizing Langa may be the key to helping Adam remember the joy in skating, Tadashi forfeits his match and allows Adam and Langa to race.
     Adam and Langa's beef begins on S's original and more dangerous track. Through Adam's coercion, Langa enters a mental zone where he is unable to focus on anything other than skating. When he falls, he notices that Reki had written "fun" on his board, which helps him remember the fun in skating. Through this, Langa helps Adam realize the fun in skating, and he wins the race. Afterwards, the group celebrates Langa's victory, while Adam is pardoned from arrest after giving information about his accomplice to the police. As part of Reki and Langa's promise earlier, the two race at S.
