Yuki Kadono (角野 友基, Kadono Yūki, born May 18, 1996) is a Japanese snowboarder who competes in the slopestyle event.[1]

Born in Miki, Hyōgo, Japan, he competed for Japan at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, qualifying for the final of the slopestyle event and finishing 8th overall.[2]

Kadono won the Nokia Air and Style in Beijing in 2012, at the age of 16, making him one of the youngest to win the event besides Shaun White.[citation needed] He was the 2012–13 overall World Cup Champion in the slopestyle event.[3]

Kadono placed 3rd in Big Air at the 2015 X Games in Aspen and first at the 2016 X games in Oslo.[4][5] He won the 2015 Burton US Open Slopestyle with the first ever Back-To-Back Triple Cork 1620s.[6]

Despite being considered a medal contender by observers including Tyler Nicholson and Transworld Snowboarding, Kadono was not selected for the 2018 Winter Olympics, with reports indicating that this was due to a code of conduct violation.[7][8]

In 2020, he won his second Burton US Open Slopestyle victory.[9]
