"MATSURI", which is the third time this year, was held at Nango Ski Resort.
Despite the mellow atmosphere, the hearts of the participants are definitely hot!
Loose.But it's hot.
2005 3 Month 20 Day.
The annual "Maneuverline presents" MATSURI "" was held at Toranoana Aizu Nango Ski Resort in Fukushima.
This is the third time this year.
In the first place, this event was born from the desire to have a "festival" where riders of each brand supported by Maneuverline can interact with general snowboarders.The number of participants has increased year by year, and this time it was an event that attracted about 80 entries.
The riders who rushed this time were Yuji Hara, Keiji Tokita "Tocky", Kento Shibuya, Leo Takahashi, Taki Yamaguchi, Takuya Yamamura, Yusaku Nagasawa, Yasuhiro Ito "Kampe", Woody, Seiki Toda, Tomoko Fujiyama, Yuka Wakamaki. Everyone.
▲ During entry
The contents of the event are rail-out and jam session.
The rail-out section layout is as follows.
A box and rails are installed in XNUMXWAY on the climbing slope, and a sideways coping rail is placed at the position of the lip that has climbed up.
In other words, go down the approach slope, choose a box or rail for climbing from the bottom to the lip, and when it comes out, hit the coping rail of the lip to face the bottom and put it in the box or rail again for the descent.The item itself looks easy, but it's easy to stall, so if you make a slight mistake, it's difficult to recover.
▲ Rail Out item
The rail-out competition is a 1on1 tournament system.
The first attack must be entered by selecting a XNUMXWAY box or rail, and the second attack must be entered from the same item selected by the first attack.
In other words, the first attack has the right to select the entry item, and the second attack has the right to see how the first attack is attacked.Moreover, it is a mixture of men and women.It doesn't matter whether you are a man or a woman.The good guy wins.Since it is a one-shot game, it may be helped by the mistake of the other party, but luck is also in the ability.However, luck alone is not enough to win the semi-finals and finals.It is also worth seeing because the levels are competing with each other.
However, in addition to high-level battles, the spirit of scattering with the aim of a big skill, whether it is a stick or a stick, the appearance of trying to recover even if it fails, the appearance of trying to pull out to the end even if it crawls, this I felt like I saw the essence of the event.High-level techniques and interesting scenes are all "MATSURI".
Kento Shibuya offered a Thaiman match to the winner, Sakamoto Kohei. It was a 1on1 exhibition match.
Shibuken couldn't get back from the coping rail and disappeared to the other side of the lip, thinking that he had entered the rail smoothly at speed.
No complaints, Sakamoto-kun wins!
This kind of game is also unique to "MATSURI".
▲ Participants.It's hot!

The staff at Maneuverline just said, "Aiming for the loosest event in Japan," and it went on with a loose feeling from beginning to end, but the participants were definitely hot!
Even when I talked to the riders, they said, "It's a high level every year!"A hot session in a mellow atmosphere.The event itself is a style.
The end is an award ceremony and an annual gift lottery.A lot of presents will be given to the participants from the riders.
▲ Riders.In soccer style ...
This season, which has been a heavy snowfall for a long time, is gradually coming to an end.
