What’s happening today
Today we will be hitting our favourite four runs at the Hirafu ski ground. The first run will be the steep Super course. After riding back up the Center four lift a blast along One Ridge will be followed by walking up to ride down Miharashi and onto the Holiday run for the skate along the flat bit!
If you are in Hirafu this evening why not grab a drink at Herbies Umbrella bar before watching the Taiko drumming at Grand Hirafu Mountain Center 7pm that is next to the gondola.
Car park trick
I have been thinking about cool and relatively pain free tricks to learn on the snowboard and stumbled across this after watching a friend do it the other day. The video give a good explanation of how to get it nailed.
