■ Monster Energy Exclusive Interview
――Please tell us your enthusiasm for participating in the X Games..
I want to slip like myself.
――How is your current condition?
My body is up as usual and I'm still training, so it's as usual.
――What kind of image is your ideal routine?
I want to focus on height rather than routine.
――What is the power-up part compared to last season?
I have been injured so far, so I have been focusing on maintenance while facing my body and consulting.I think that part of it, including the part of feelings, has become stronger.
――Please tell us your goals and future aspirations for this season.
I hope I can slip in my own way and that will lead to good results.
――Please give a word to your fans.
Cheer Thank you.
