There are many different ways to enjoy snowboarding.It changes depending on the times and ages, but in this issue, I would like to once again focus on free runs that incorporate freestyle techniques. I would like you to experience the sense of accomplishment that you feel when you slide while being conscious of not only one action but also fascinating in the flow.

A new way to enjoy snowboarding that slides on "lines" instead of "dots"
Now, top riders in Japan and overseas are more focused on expressing themselves with the "lines" that connect them, rather than fascinating them with the "dots" of one action.This isn't the same in the backcountry, but on the slopes, which are a treasure trove of terrain if you look closely.I want you to remember the new way to enjoy snowboarding mentioned in this special feature, and just slip through without stopping the flow.
