''New Kamen Rider'' (also known as '''''Kamen Rider: Sky RiderSkyrider''''') is the sixth program in the ''[[Kamen Rider]]'' franchise, airing from 1979 to 1980.
 
While on a camping trip, aerial photographer and hanglidinghang-gliding enthusiast Tsukuba Hiroshi rescues Professor Shido Keitaro, who was a prisoner of Neo Shocker, a new version of the old Shocker group. Recaptured after Tsukuba helps him, Professor Shido tricks Neo Shocker into experimenting on Tsukuba, claiming that he will turn Tsukuba into a mighty warrior of evil.
 
Professor Shido's plan changes Tsukuba into a Kamen Rider, who manages to use his powers to escape and destroy the group who changed him. His father, a prominent scientist, and his mother are kidnapped and kept as slaves, as he attempts to rescue them and tries to have a normal life.

* [[The Ace]]: [[Kamen Rider Stronger|Stronger]] returns in this series making his usual flashy entrance, training Sky Rider and rescuing him several times. He stands out even more in some aspects due to the more down to Earth way that Sky Rider himself is written compared to previous Riders. Rider 2 too is in later episodes of the series, when his actor returned, would fit into this.
** Although V3 doesn't get an impressive entrance in this series, he shines as the leader of the 8 Riders in their first team up in this show. Rider 1 takes the leadership role in the movie and in later TV episodes, but in those episodes he's generally overshadowed by Sky Rider himself and even Stronger and Rider 2, whose actors actually return, while Rider 1 was just a [[Fake Shemp]] throughout the Sky Rider's series and movie.
