JUN'ICHI "JUN" UYENO. 28, he/him/his. other nicknames ... J1, Ichi, Conifer Ledge's Number 1, etc...
copy-pasting this from his toyhouse page... also worth noting this whole thing is a joke idea i've had since i was like 15 of "there needs to be a skiing vs snowboarding sports anime where these guys have like turf wars over who is the coolest on the mountain"
Goes by "Jun" on the mountain and terminally avoids giving out his last name to prevent anyone from recognizing who he is, the formerly-feared head skier of the world-famous Conifer Ledge Resort, Jun'ichi Uyeno (romanized Uyeno instead of Ueno due to family having been immigrated for a few generations).
Prior to coming to Peabody Resort, Jun'ichi was the head/leader/boss/etc. of the ski group at Conifer Ledge, and he was known for his aggressive lifestyle and dedication to keeping boarders off his turf. An accident on extreme terrain tore Jun'ichi's ACL and he required surgery for it, during which he came to realize he no longer wanted to be known as an asshole. He deleted all his social media accounts and changed up his appearance and went ghost for a few years until the love of the sport brought him back to the (supposedly) quiet Peabody Family Resort where he was hoping to avoid petty sports drama. He did not. But the scene is much smaller than Conifer Ledge's, so Jun'ichi puts up with it for the sake of meeting people with a common interest.
Jun is now very friendly and can come across as naive. He is pretty good at skiing, working his way back up to a comfortable level of tolerance, although he's nowhere near as good as he was pre-injury. The skiers at Peabody want desperately to recruit him even though they have no idea of his true identity as 'Conifer Ledge's Number 1' (since 'ichi' means one), but Jun continues to deny them for fear of falling back into old habits. As such he gets along great with people on both 'sides' of the war for Peabody Family Resort's turf.
Outside of winter sports stuff, Jun is a dedicated gyaruo after deciding to get into j-fashion while recovering from his injury because it's my OC and I can do what I want.
I still need to draw him and finalize his design and stuff but this guy is basically the closest I have to my mental image of him so far. (but buffer jdslkfjdskfjdsf)
