* Adam may see some of himself in Reki, reminding him of a time when he was younger and didn't have to take life so seriously. This is likely another reason why he lashes out at Reki the most, as his adult life has left him hollow and angry, wanting to destroy someone else's enjoyment of something he once cherished. Even more so when Reki, despite being leagues below Adam in terms of skill [[spoiler: still gets the praise and love from his friends and S even when he loses against Adam during their second beef]]. Adam on the other hand, is forced to be the "perfect" person under his aunt's influence and in front of the public, which in turn [[spoiler: leaves him the most alone, even when he wins against Reki in their second beef.]]

** Given Tadashi's connections to Adam, a powerful politician, it's very possible he was able to pay the staff off or [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveConnections otherwise used his position to keep them quiet]]. Which is actually ''worse'' in a way.

* At the start of the first episode, most of the main characters desires of "happiness" are shown, but Shadow's isn't. We find out later his happiness is in the manager and his job. He pretty much has achieved his "happiness" aside from actually asking his manager out on a proper date.
* Some may wonder why or how Langa would know next to nothing about skateboarding. Well, given he lived in Canada, the fact that snowboarding seems to be one of his main interests and how he's usually off in his own world, unless it was something related to any of those interests, Langa likely didn't pay anything else much mind.

** When they start their race, Cherry is the only person shown thus far to be able to keep up with Adam at the start. This is likely due to all the research he's poured into trying to match Adam, especially earlier when he checks with Carla who says he got the same time as Adam.

* The title for episode 11 could easily be referring to Adam VS Reki for their upcoming beef. However afterwards, when Reki loses to Adam, [[PyrrhicVictory he still manages to get the respect of the S community who cheer for him instead]]. Adam was also humiliated during their beef, leading him to quickly become the "nobody" while Reki becomes the "king".

* While Tadashi taking Reki to a love hotel seems like set up for a humurous misunderstandings, love hotels are very discreet about their customers unlike hotels and it's likely all that Tadashi could get on a moment's notice.
* While some may have been disappointed that Reki and Langa are never shown actually racing against one another, the two have already worked out their problems together and not only see each other as equals, but also understand the reason why they skate. They want to have fun together so the winner or loser of their race doesn't matter so long as they enjoyed it.

* How many people has Adam sent to the hospital while skating at S? It's shown in a flashback when he, Cherry and Joe are all still teens, his sadistic side started to become more apparent. Shadow tells Miya he'd need all of his fingers and toes just to count, but what if there are even more who Shadow and the rest of S weren't privy to see?

* How did Reki think of dodging Adam's Love Hug in that way? He likely saw how Cherry maneuvered around him as he was leaving the S course on screen and since he knew he couldn't dodge it in the exact way Cherry does, goes with what he has and adds his own spin. Langa even pulls it off himself when dodging Adam's strike since he's already been established to be a fast learner.

* Cherry in his high school years seemed to be more daring and willing to take risks when skating. However in adulthood, he becomes more of a [[TechnicianVSPerformer technician while Joe is more of the performer]]. This is likely because Adam didn't see Joe and Cherry as equals anymore after he left them, causing Cherry to feel resentful and strive for perfection to prove Adam wrong over the years.
