Intro to Splitboarding

Experience the captivating snowy landscapes of Hokkaido, Japan, through splitboarding. Japan is renowned for its pristine powder conditions, offering an unmatched adventure for snowboarding enthusiasts. Delve into splitboarding, a unique approach that lets you ascend mountains and glide on untouched trails with the flexibility of a specially designed board. As you conquer untracked peaks, prepare for an exhilarating downhill ride in the famous Japow.
