Q1: The season is finally approaching, where do you plan to be active this season?Akakawa: He is scheduled to appear all over Japan where there is snow.I want to go to places where the conditions are good and where my friends are excited!
Q2: What kind of activities and events will you be doing?Please let me know if you have any.Akakawa:My field of activity is of course the snowy mountains, but my routine is to stream it on YouTube and Instagram every day, so it changes depending on the snowfall and the movements of my friends.In any case, it will be frequently distributed on YouTube and Instagram, so please check it out.
Q3: Have you decided which board you will ride this season?Why did you choose that?Akakawa:head's ANYTHING LYT 152cm!It's a light and fun board that can be used in any field.This is a great board to play on the slopes.
Q4: What about bindings and boots?Please also tell us your recommended points.Akakawa:I use NX TEAM bindings.It comes with an adjuster that allows you to adjust the stiffness of the highback to suit your riding style, depending on the field of the day.The good thing about it is that you can use it for a variety of purposes.The boots are FOUR BOA FOUCAS LIQUIDFIT.First of all, I like a flex that is not too stiff, so I can use my ankles flexibly.I can't fly XNUMX meters at high speed anymore, so these supple boots are useful because they give me style.Liquid fit also allows you to get a better fit.
Q5: What did you do in the off-season?Akakawa:During the off-season, I was training and giving lessons at off-training facilities.I also record my daily life on YouTube.Van life in the newly acquired Hiace is also great.Please check it out as we will be broadcasting it as well.
QXNUMX: Where did you mainly do off-training?I was practicing this technique!Please let me know if you have any.Akakawa: I was mainly off-training at Tohoku Quest.I don't have to practice because I can do all the tricks, but I had fun moving my body in time for the season.It's like keeping your body from getting dull.
QXNUMX: Lastly, if you have a "Watch this now!" episode on Akagawa's YouTube channel, please let everyone know, whether it's about daily life or snowboarding!Akakawa:My YouTube channel is about distributing ski resort information in real time, so I'll be reporting on ski resorts that are opening one after another.Please use the video as a reference to enrich your life in the snowy mountains.
