Description

Hit the slopes of Hakuba and shred with THE top male FWQ snowboarder in Japan! Spend a day or more riding in the northern Japanese Alps and experience some of the best powder in the world!

Japan is chock-full of incredible skiing and snowboarding destinations, thanks in part to its marvelous mountains and unequaled snow quality. The atmosphere, moisture, and precipitation have contributed to a high snow fall of light, dry powder, which is the ideal composition for a life-changing snowboarding adventure. Nowhere is this more prevalent than in Hakuba and the Japanese Alps.

This is where you come in! I am ranked as the number one male Freeride World Qualifying snowboarder in Japan, number 46 in the whole world, and I’d love to ride in one of my favorite locations with a partner – or three – in crime. Sticking on-piste in the boundaries of the immaculate resorts of Hakuba, we can examine every inch of snow go over lines like pros.

Hakuba is the perfect place for a program like this. You will love the tall mountains over 3,000 meters that surround the valley. The terrain is pristine and covers deep alpine bowls, steep ridges, tree-lined runs, and so much more. The snowpack is generous and world-class, so you will never have to worry about riding in slush or less-than-desirable conditions. And the legends are true: the snow is arguably the best on Earth!

I love this area and I know you will, too. I will ensure you have a safe, fulfilling, and all-around fun time on this program. The resorts are accommodating to every type of snowboarding excursion, so grab your gear and meet me in Hakuba!

Ski with one of the premiere athletes of Japan and book this program NOW – it’s not everyday you get the opportunity to spend a day snowboarding in Hakuba Valley with the top-ranked FWQ snowboarder in the country!

I can also ride with you on a half-day program if you wanted to trim the program a bit. Or we can grab a group and scour the snow of Hakuba on another day-long snowboarding adventure!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
