Hakuba Norikura / ◎145cm / Snow2019.Jan.16
It changed from a calm weather that lasted five days, this morning it was a snow and gas world. The cold north wind that was blowing stronger increased from time to time and sometimes it was snowstorm. In the Highway Course and the Kamoshika Course covered with about 8 cm of the new snow, the compacted snow of the foundation was firm, and when the edges was hung, it was in a state where the sound was scratch and sounded.

Wakaguri Central Slope is hard compacted snow, and the new snow topping was about 10 cm. The steep slope Rabbit Course was also in the same condition, so I slid down with a short turn that made the brakes work.

Even though I was slipping, my hand have gone numb, and the place where my skin was exposed got a bit painful. Snowboarders I met at Wakaguri Central Slope. They said me “I’m always watching the Snownavi! I came sliding with my brothers, my older brother is the first Hakunori this season.”

The ski resort that was vacant in the morning has become lively with high school students coming from Fukuoka prefecture. In the snow falling vigorously, they were divided into groups, and they practiced skiing at the Hakunori Family Course and Wakaguri Rinkan Course.
