How to Spend 26 Days in Hokkaido - A Must Watch Video for Snowboarders!

17 October, 2016 Sofie Lahtinen

How a group of fun-loving shredders spent 26 days on the mountains of Hokkaido, Japan, including world-class Niseko.

We're loving the latest video release by Canadian-based Oatway Productions as they share their action-packed adventures on the slopes on Hokkaido, Japan, including Niseko, Hirafu and the beautiful Mt Yotei.

The webisode is a special edition trailer for their full-length Japow edit which we will be releasing at their film premiere in Golden, BC, Canada, on November 17th, 2016.

The video documents the 26 day journey of this super talented and energetic bunch of boarders as they hit the slopes throughout Hokkaido - with some snowmobiling thrown in for good measure!

We're getting super excited for the snow season just watching the smooth moves of these amazing riders!

Australian-born and Euro-blooded, Sofie has been living in Niseko since 2016. When she's not behind a desk, she gets her kicks from yoga, cycling, Mother Nature, and as a self-confessed 'speed-demon', riding anything with wheels or a motor is top of the list. Sofie's perfect day ends by getting red-faced in an onsen, then polishing off a bowl of Hokkaido's famous soup curry (yes, it's a thing!).
