Description

Renowned from around the world for its spectacular skiing, Hakuba, Japan is a tremendous option for a full day of skiing. And on this trip, you will get to enjoy that skiing with a local, professional, ninth ranked freeride world qualifier skier.

The lofty reputation that Hakuba has attained over the years is well deserved. Surrounded by the Japan Alps and blessed with an abundance of amazing powder during the winter season, skiers often leave the area shocked that their expectations were not only met, but have been vastly exceeded.

Throughout the day, on one of the Hakuba area’s collection of resorts, we will ski as often as possible. Together, we will enjoy some wonderful runs. And in between those runs, I will happily provide you with answers to any questions you may have. I will also give you advice whenever I see an opportunity to do so.

Skiing with a professional can be intimidating to some people. But it absolutely shouldn’t be. My goal on this trip is for you to have a lot of fun and to make a great experience even better. I also hope to help you become a better skier by the time the day is done.

To join me on this trip, all you have to do is send me a request. I look forward to skiing in Hakuba with you!

I was born in Osaka. During my teens, I spent some time in the country side and, ever since, then I've been attracted to the mountains.

I'm currently a professional ski bum based in Hakuba!! My freeriding motto is to always try new things from the top of a mountain all the way to the bottom.

Whether it be sunny, blizzarding, or even raining, I can propose a way to have fun in the mountains!

I've travelled around the globe with my skis - all over Japan, Alaska, Canada and New Zealand.

If you just want to try out fat skis or if you are a hardcore skier who wants to ski until you can't move, I would love to show you around my hood!

I will show you how to use the natural terrain to produce your own style of freeriding. From carving to aggressive riding, let me know what you're after!

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.
