    7:55 This is the perfect clip to show elderly relatives when they ask, "so what is this ski-boarding thing you get so excited about each winter?"
    No need for insanely sheer inclines, technical lines, or olympic level flippy-dippy jumps that will only make your grandmother fear for your life every time you mention where you're going. Just a long, unedited, pure beautiful powder run set in front of spectacular mountains, backed by the perfect choice of music. Bravo!

      What an epic run. Like you say, nothing crazy, just floating down a mountain on a blanket of powder.

      Few decades later some kids will invent new invention. And you gonna wonder about what's so cool about that and they gonna tell you: Shut up, elder, you know nothing!

    It has been a life long dream of mine to go to Japan not just because of its world class snowboarding I’ve just always been so interested in the Asian culture thanks for this really awesome video.

    I think I have watched this video a hundred times. Analyzed everything and finaly yesterday my buddy and I did the same hike up to happone and did that same lap of you guys @snowboardprocamp. So thank you for the inspiration

    Feels like skiing on flour power, the snow quality is just incredible!

    @cedlouis 6 років тому +3

    Holy sheesh....this channel is seriously blowin' up with all these trips...Hopefully you guys are realizing how much this is helping the rest of us out who don't get to the mountain as much. I don't get to snowboard much, other than a few times a year, (Calgary Canada - Lake Louise, and Calgary Olympic Park-COP), so seeing this vicariously with you guys all across the States, and Whistler, Europe and now Japan is truly INCREDIBLE. Please keep it up, and thanks for the inspiration to get out there no matter what it takes!

    My girlfriend and I were in japan around the same time this year. We went snowboarding on a different mountain but really enjoyed the snow and went through heaps of trees and so much powder. Watching this video took me back to the experience but you guys are way more EXTREME! Keep up the great content!

    @nicholasleighbarnes 6 років тому

    If you get the chance I recommend hitting up Madarao and Myoko-Suginohara while you're nearby. Looking at the snow forecast, your best chance of getting that true Japow experience will be Thursday/Friday. Make sure you get up early for those first tracks, and may the snow gods smile upon you.

  • @seabassvdm
    @seabassvdm 6 років тому

    Should've been there last week - I had pow up to my chest. If you go from the top of the gondola, stick to the right of the slope and there will be a nice powdery and less tight alpine run on your right... Hope that helps

  • @hippysnowboarder
    @hippysnowboarder 6 років тому +2

    The best powders in Hokkaido. I know Hakuba area has more high alpine but as far as snow quality and amount goes, there’s no beating Hokkaido.
