If you happen to be in the Vermont area this weekend, I highly recommend you check out this show!

Our little fox friend asked us for food, we declined and then packed our bags and headed out to the Sapporo Airport for the flight back to Tokyo. A two-hour airport shuttle to CTS, a quick two-hour jaunt to Haneda Domestic Airport, then another shuttle into the sprawling metropolis of Tokyo. Relatively easy.
I had planned [...]

Bunch of random flicks from our times around Niseko. We’re just about finished with the mission…it’s been a great one for sure! Although the pow days were limited, we got everything we needed for the editorial piece in Snowboarder Magazine (USA). The story will be a good read and I hope y’all will enjoy the [...]

With the ‘rain event’ that rolled through Northern Japan, much of terrain in our zone has been rendered useless, so we climbed in the van and started the search for obstacles.

You ever roll up to the [...]

After Jack and I checked our baggage onto the next flight, we made our way through security, grabbed some fine Japanese chow mein and traded travel stories from the past couple of weeks. Jack had been touring through Europe with Mikkel attending a couple of contests and photo shoots. Jack, the fine filmer and editor [...]

Editor, writer and overall epic dude Tom Monterosso has assembled the crew of Mikkel Bang, Jack Mitrani and Keegan Valaika to come and check out this zone made famous by it’s yearly snowfall [...]
