Yumeka Oda and Momiji Nishiya at Sanrio headquarters (C) 2023 SANRIO CO., LTD.

Press Release: TOKYO, April 25, 2023 -- Sanrio Company, Ltd. headquartered in Tokyo, is pleased to announce that it has signed sponsorship agreements with Japanese female skateboarders Momiji Nishiya and Yumeka Oda, effective April 21, 2023. Through these agreements, Sanrio hopes to support young athletes in their challenges and strengthen its corporate brand in North America and other global markets.

As part of the agreements, both athletes will use decks with Hello Kitty and Sanrio logo stickers to compete in various tournaments and competitions, starting with one of the world's most prestigious, premier action sporting events, "X Games Chiba 2023" (May 12-14 in Chiba, Japan).

Momiji Nishiya - Born on August 30, 2007, in Osaka, Japan. She is the first gold medalist in the TOKYO 2020 Skateboard Women's Street event. At the same time, she became the youngest Japanese skater ever to win a gold medal at the age of 13 years and 10 months. She started skateboarding at the age of 6, influenced by her older brother, and within 7 years of starting to compete, she joined the ranks of the world's top-class skaters. With the motto of "smile and have fun until the end," she has won the world's most prestigious contests such as X Games and Dew Tour, and is also eager to create video parts on street skating.

Yumeka Oda

Yumeka Oda - Born on October 30, 2006, in Aichi Prefecture, Japan, she started skateboarding at the age of 7. In 2022, she represented Japan at the Pro Tour organized by World Skate. She also won in Street League Skateboarding, the most prestigious competition in the world, and scored 9.4, that is the highest score for a single trick in women's history and the first time in women's skating history to score in the 9-point range. The disappointment of missing out on TOKYO 2020 has propelled her to be one of the leading candidates of the next generation who are expected to achieve great things at the next Games.

Dew Tour - Women's Street Skateboarding Results + Recap

Chloe Covell - Photo Dew Tour/Jeremiah Arias

Today seemed a bit familiar… watching 12-year-old Chloe Covell from Australia battle it out with Olympic gold medalist Momiji Nishiya from Japan (she won gold at age 13) had us on the edge of our seats. Chloe is fairly new on the comp scene, and she is really giving the street crew a run for their money. This is exactly why we need to make sure girls and women in skateboarding have open contests so we can encourage and spot new talent.

Momiji had the lead from the get-go, but it looked like Pamela Rosa, or Chloe might just be able to pull off a run that could beat her until she received a score of 95.33 on her last run - that is pretty hard to top!

Rayssa Leal - Photo Dew Tour

Rayssa Leal is a veteran at this point, and she is just 14 years old. The younger crew is taking over, and it’s time we all started paying attention. Rayssa is being pushed hard this season as well. Pamela Rosa is not messing around. At all. The speed and power she carries into each trick is like no other. And today, it earned her a place on the podium.

Mariah Duran - Dew Tour/Jeremiah Aria

USA’s Mariah Duran may be further down the results list, but make no mistake - she skated so solidly it was awesome to watch. She was only 1 point away from catching Funa and 3 points away from Rayssa - so she is looking strong this season. We’re looking forward to seeing more of this from Mariah.

Did you miss watching the comp? No worries - we have it below. Enjoy!

Thanks to everyone at Dew Tour for putting on a great comp!

Results + Video Finals - Women's Street Skateboarding Olympic Qualifier Rome

The Women’s Skateboarding Street Qualifier today in Rome was insane! We don’t want to give it all away in case you missed it live (we have the full video below) but we will say that Chloe Covell from AU was absolutely killing it! At just twelve years old Chloe solidly held her own with these seasoned competitors. The Japanese skaters were determined to make this a full sweep even with the two Brazilians, Rayssa Leal and Pamela Rosa nipping at their heels. Fierce competition took place and it was anyone’s guess as to who would make it onto the podium.

It also bears noting that the USA did not have any female skaters make it to the quarter-finals or beyond. We really have our work cut out for us. Right now Japan and Brazil are dominating with AU gaining as well.

Last but not least, it was fantastic having OG pro skater Alex White doing commentary during the women’s comp. Her knowledge of tricks, background on each skater, scoring, and more make her our favorite! It’s been a difficult road getting female announcers at women’s comps and the Olympics should be thankful to have Alex on board. Let’s hope she is their select for Paris 2024!

2 Runs + 5 Trick Attempts (Best Run + 02 Best Tricks Counts)
