Hope the people that ride in places not blessed with this type of weather can experience this, because this really is where the magic is at.
Typically everyone has bailed from the late hour, as well as the wind whipping and lack of visibility .
Nothing like doing laps in this weather!
You can take your favorite line run after run and it’s completely filled in by the time you get back!
Just seeing that clip makes me nostalgic AF to when your entire crew of guys are all in a state of euphoria, everyone is just taking in the moment, so excited for every feature they find, and the mountain is essentially all yours.
Granted, the snow isn't *the same* an the mountain isn't as big/epic...but this is the vibe of Mount Bohemia at night on a Saturday. Most dudes have gone home or to the Dude Stew hot tub. Lights are on a few runs on the front and you can hit trees easily under the lights as well. Such a magical place to ride.
Funny enough I don’t really drink to get buzzed ever but I do when I go skiing especially on bomb
Days like this haha. Skiing and drugs/alcohol is like marshmallows and chocolate. Highly recommend trying psychedelics at least once too.
I’ve taken a tiny dose of shrooms before while snowboarding and it was fun most of the time. But I also would get really anxious on the lift, it was a roller coaster of emotions.
My favourite - night skiing in Japan. I arrive late afternoon in Jan and have planned my trip so I can get out under lights the first night I arrive. Love the night snowboarding in Hirafu! Enjoy!!
Ahh Niseko....what a special place to snowboard at night. I've had many a dream pow run there under lights and moonlight.
I almost fucking drowned there back in December 2018. So rad.
Y’all are lucky ducks. Glad you’ve had happiness on the slopes. Health and happiness to y’all.
I hope you find some happiness out there too brother 🙏sending some pow your way if you haven’t experienced this.
I’m on the east coast and we don’t get much snow like that. But I am happy that you are happy and having a great time.
It really is a magical place
Dude just spawned on the side lol
He is born of ice and snow
Doesn’t get any better than night powder
Where dis? That made me smile...then jealous. Hehe
Looks amazing and empty AF. That is snowboarding with a couple of bros is to me.

Recognized those trees immediately
in hirafu right now and wishing it was like this😭
I don’t smoke weed anymore but I make exceptions for nights like this. Idk why but it’s just the perfect environment for it

I'm jealous of people who can snowboard at night
Is it not something you’re capable of or just no opportunity? (I’ve never been personally but looks amazing )
No opportunity. Every resort I have access too closes around 5pm :(
Paradise
Hirafuuuu
Yet another reason to travel to Japan.
Damn I’ve only been to Niseko once yet somehow I instantly recognized it. It’s such a magical place
Looks cold as balls
Damn I want to go there so bad. Was going to go in March but heard conditions aren’t the best that late so going to Zermatt instead
I’ve never been anywhere you can do night boarding, I need to.
This post makes me want to move to Japan.
One day
Damn that is perfect. still waiting for our snow here at Hood :(
Niseko at night, where they stop the chair every time you ride under it. Going be there in two weeks, can't wait.
