Taiga Himuro is a third-year student and captain of the skate-leading team at St. Cavis Gakuen High School. He possesses a tall, tanned physique, dull blue hair styled partially spiked, and distinctive yellow eyes. His standard attire is the St. Clavis uniform: a jacket, pants, and black shirt. Evenings reveal a different look where he wears glasses and alters his hairstyle.

Confident and composed, Taiga demonstrates a perceptive nature, maintaining sharp awareness of his surroundings and insight into others' strengths. Though no longer competing with the Ionodai High School team, he sustains cordial relationships with some members. He shows notable kindness toward individuals like his neighbor, Tomoyuki Kubota, interacting with him regularly.

Recruited alongside Shotaro Terauchi to join St. Clavis's skate-leading squad after middle school, Taiga accepted the offer while Shotaro declined. This placed Taiga within the St. Clavis team environment, where he rose to leadership. His analytical skills extend to competition tactics, enabling him to assess opponents' strategies and weaknesses during events.

As captain of the previous year's championship team, Taiga contributes significantly to St. Clavis's competitive strategies. Within the team, he collaborates closely with Toranosuke Kurayoshi, who helps interpret the often-reserved Reo Shinozaki's intentions. His background as a former middle school teammate of Shotaro and other Ionodai members informs his ongoing interactions, reflecting a connection persisting despite their current rival affiliations.

The etymology of his surname, Himuro (氷室), signifies "icehouse" or "cold room." His given name, Taiga, combines the characters for "peaceful/tranquil" (泰) and "clear/serene/skillful" (冴).
