Hailing from Israel, Yam Behar is the kind of skateboarder who does it all: He can finesse tech lip tricks, spin head-high 540s, and tweak stylish airs in the deep end. Charging with speed and aggression, Yam blends new school moves and time-honored classics with his own signature twist. And he’s paid his dues by traveling across the globe as an amateur in the Monster Army program and refining his skills on premium park terrain. Slowly but surely, he’s emerged as a sure bet for making the finals in global bowl riding competitions. His big break came in early 2024 when he clinched third place in the Tampa Pro Concrete Jam. He also released his own pro design shoe – the first pro skater from Israel scoring this kind of endorsement.
