Description

Join a crew of snowboarders and shred alongside the top male FWQ snowboarder in Hakuba! Located in the north of the delectable Japanese Alps, this program gives you a day of incomparable snowboarding with a veritable professional in a world-class destination!

With so much outstanding terrain to ride, it’s no wonder that Hakuba has emerged as one of the top spots for unforgettable snow adventures in Japan and the world. Known for its light and fluffy powder, it is easy to access and very generous in doling out run after run of impeccable quality. Thanks to the precipitation, moisture, and atmosphere, the snowpack is reliable year in and year out.

Your program places you front and center in this memorable wonderland. With 3,000-meter mountains at every turn, steep lines, and tree-lined runs as far as the eye can see, Hakuba Valley is a vacation for the ages. The alpine bowls and high ridges are never-ending, so there is enough phenomenal terrain to keep you busy for weeks!

Oh yeah – you will also be riding with me, the top-ranked male Freeride World Qualifier in Japan! Board alongside me and I can share some of my secrets and tips. I am not a certified guide, but I am more than happy to discuss my style, habits, and riding techniques. I am currently ranked 46 in the world because of Hakuba and its landscape.

You should be able to asses your own skills, thus determining what level you are capable of riding at. There is no set departure date for this program because I will form the groups as they are needed. My goal is to ride with you on a fun, invigorating, and enchanting day of superior snow conditions.

Don’t put off the snowboarding adventure of a lifetime any longer and book this program IMMEDIATELY! Ride alongside the country’s top-ranked FWQ snowboarder and see what makes Hakuba one of Japan’s finest winter wonderlands!

We can also have a private day program in Hakuba for you and your friends, maybe even more than a day! Or we can join a half-day group program on the iconic snow paradise in the Japanese Alps!

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.
