Special Appendix: FIND SNOWBOARD + NOTHING TO PROVE
[FIND SNOWBOARD / ROME SDS remote world trip]
[NOTHING TO PROVE / CELTEK Approaching the essence of snowboarding]
In last year's popular project "TURN Special", we went back to the origin of SNOWBOARDING = slipping.
We featured a method for getting a beautiful turn.
This year's feature is "good position".You've heard the words that you can (or can't) get on the board.
"Riding in a good position = riding on a board".A book that firmly captures the meaning of this word that I have heard many times.
Get in a good position and enjoy a pleasant snowboarding experience.
★ Good position
The secret to getting in a good position
Ride more smoothly, faster and more comfortably. "Good position" is a keyword for thinking about skiing on a snowboard from the ground up.What is waiting is the pleasure created by controlling.A feeling of running faster than you can imagine.A balance of vivid sense of speed and gravity, centrifugal force, and repulsive force.And it's a sense of unity with a melting snowboard.

★ YOKOTE STREET

I heard from riders Atsushi Hasegawa and Yoshiaki Endo that they would like to go on a street photography trip somewhere.It is said that a place that no one has done yet is good.Find an undeveloped street spot where there aren't many local riders.The name was given to Tohoku and Akita.A trip to explore the unknown Akita Street by four people, including Masanori Sugita and Ko Takikawa.
