#snowboarding #powder #Japan
A 2 week trip to Japan for snowboarding in the deepest powder in the world. We go to Niseko, Asahidake and Hakkoda. Using Neversummer and Libtech snowboards.
This episode is a mountain called Hakkoda in the far north of the main island of Honshu. One of the only places to get Snow Mosters in the world.
The Hakkoda Ski Resort in Japan is a powder skiing mecca, and possibly the holy grail of skiing in Japan.True powder hounds search for the ski resort holy grail - an undiscovered ski area that is blessed with lots of snowfall, has absolutely no crowds, and freshies galore. Once upon a time Niseko Japan was one of those hidden gems, but unfortunately now it’s well and truly discovered. Asahidake, Kurodake and Kamui Links were also once a secret, but probably no longer. Perhaps Hakkoda is the new holy grail of Japan? Some say it’s already been discovered, whilst others cite guaranteed freshies. Which is it?
Either way, it’s well known that Hakkoda is not a ski resort in its usual form. This is a powder mountain (or series of mountains) where you can powder your nose, eat powder, snort powder - whatever takes your fancy!
Typically Hakkoda attracts hardcore powder hounds who appreciate the joys of deep powder, off-piste riding and the backcountry. It is also generally appeals to the hardcore who are intrigued by the infamous “danger” of Hakkoda. This area is well known amongst the Japanese for the ill fated soldiers that perished during ferocious blizzards in the early 20th century.
Inspired by the love to travel and snowboarding.
