Your videos have gotten better and better, and this is the best one yet. You're becoming filmmakers with the quality of your tracking shots, edits, and music. Adding the cultural elements is a real bonus that adds a lot of interest.
This is probably my favorite video of this trip. The first music sample was spot on and those trees, powder, drops, jumps, hits, bails, etc. were all sick. The powder dream yew! Never seen trees like that before either, beautiful. 🤙🏼
On the Epic Pass for 2020 and already a popular resort. Watch this resort become a lot more popular and for a very good reason! Side note: You are capturing why Japan is such an amazing destination...
People always wonder why i don't vacation in the same old boring tropical resort and go snowbaording instead. They just don't get why I'd rather freeze my ass off in waist deep pow....and thats just fine with me and this video shows exactly why we do it.
Just went to Rusutsu yesterday and on Saturday and it was absolutely amazing!! The snow is so powdery and there is sooo much. Also less crowds than Niseko area. So many trees, pillows, and cliffs to explore. I definitely recommend going there if you snowboard at all in Japan.
Those people wearing the jerseys and stuff are school kids. Japan is pretty cool in that aspect where they have snowboarding and skiing for PE class during the winters depending on where you live.
Hey guys! Love all the videos, you guys inspired me to ride more and I even started filming it and posting on my own channel! Keep shredding and thanks for all the inspiration 🤙🏻
Rad 👍💪 Too bad i cant meet you guys. Anyway i had a great pow in niseko grandhirafu, and annupuri. I havent check out nisekovillage yet. Weekend i gonna check out Kiroro. Tonight dumping snow much 👍
That does look magical, what run at Ruzutsu is that if you don't mind sharing? Also great tips on booking a trip like this by the guys!! What does a car rental average per day out there, also did you guys need all wheel drive or chains?
Goddamn! I did early season in Niseko this year and this video makes me want to go back already!! Looks bloody amazing. We had pow like that for one day on the Hanazono side of Niseko, boarding through the forest was incredible
Hey Kevin! Greetings from the Alps. I am Thinking of getting a bataleon or a Lobster Snowboard, but Not sure about their TBT technology. Is it possible to use them outside the park on icy slopes?
Zack idk about a Canadian only site, but I just picked up some smith squad xl's on Evo for like $58! Comes with two smith chromapop lenses too! Same goggles TJs wearing this year fyi
Yay^_^ you guys did the East mountain at Rusutsu. Try Hakkoda at Aomori on your next trip . They have mad tree monsters during Jan-March period . The local Japanese back country tour guide IG: sonotasatoshi he works at the Onsen hotel in the hakkoda mountain . They will accept non hotel guests to join the tour. I went to Hakkoda in December. It was epic and amazing
looks like the bitrate of the video is to low and there are some artefacts in the video - maybe try exporting it with higher bitrate? I wanted to watch that powder in its full glory but its a bit sketchy :( I hope that it wont be taken as an offensive comment because I really enjoy your content and maybe there is a way for it to be even better?
Great to see you came here guys
Can you guys do a final review of each "mountain" for this trip?
Lloyd Parlee very good idea
that little jump and landing at 6:35 looked so fun and smooth
Now I’m late for school but was worth watching the video for. 👍
Roman Olashyn lol i have just arrived from school😂enjoy

Don Mueller haven’t??
I totally agree!
This is probably my favorite video of this trip. The first music sample was spot on and those trees, powder, drops, jumps, hits, bails, etc. were all sick. The powder dream yew! Never seen trees like that before either, beautiful. 🤙🏼
You guys were my inspiration to snowboard instead of skiing you guys are the best. Never stop filming videos!
Good crew. You guys will remember this trip for a very long time.
Rusutsu is really an amazing resort. Always good quality and volume of snow. Groomed courses and trees are so well maintained. Love Rusutsu so much.
It's so funny: Kevin always in control, barely ever falls and TJ face shotting and snowballing his way down :D Send it! :D
Dee Ric in that kind of powder, send it. Little consequences and all in good fun yew!
On the Epic Pass for 2020 and already a popular resort.
Watch this resort become a lot more popular and for a very good reason!
Side note: You are capturing why Japan is such an amazing destination...
That's prob the best video Ive seen since u guys landed in Japan, awesome shots. Indeed a magical snowboard place....
People always wonder why i don't vacation in the same old boring tropical resort and go snowbaording instead. They just don't get why I'd rather freeze my ass off in waist deep pow....and thats just fine with me and this video shows exactly why we do it.

Just went to Rusutsu yesterday and on Saturday and it was absolutely amazing!! The snow is so powdery and there is sooo much. Also less crowds than Niseko area. So many trees, pillows, and cliffs to explore. I definitely recommend going there if you snowboard at all in Japan.
