One of the most fulfilling parks in the area
NIXON MAIKO SNOW PARK, which Maiko Snow Resort is proud of, boasts one of the most fulfilling items in the area.There are many variations of items so that anyone from beginners to advanced users can enjoy them.Also, the items for beginners are made with a gentle approach, so you can practice tricks safely.Not only wide boxes but also items for intermediate users such as narrow boxes are arranged so that people who challenged the park for the first time at Maiko Snow Resort can step up.
There are various kickers and sizes, so first practice with a smaller kicker.From there, you can increase the size and take on the challenge.One of the charms is that it is a kicker that feels good to fly because it is made to enjoy the feeling of floating.Various lines can be selected, and kicker → jib and kicker → kicker can freely enjoy the park depending on the play they want to do.
I was a little hungry after enjoying the park ride.At that time, it's lunch time at Back Country Maiko just below the park area!You can eat delicious rice in a fashionable building, including pizza and taco rice.You can also see the park from the window seats. "That item was interesting ~" "Where should I go next ~" It's a place where such conversations can be lively.
BANKYARD that anyone can enjoy freely using the terrain
BANKYARD that appeared in the Maiko area.This is a fan park where you can combine banks and enjoy the line freely.You can fly and play, or you can give a slash.The bank is also gentle, so even beginners can enjoy terrain play safely and securely.After all I want to fly in the bank!There are also spots where you can fly for such people.
There are endless ways to enjoy BANKYARD, where you can play freely using the park and terrain with abundant items.
The finest powder is full of hidden spots
The Okusoechi area that went up the gondola.The attraction here is the finest powder.The powder in this place, which is relatively high in the area, is light.The Gungun course for advanced players is a paradise in the morning on a snowy day.The width is wide, the slope is just right, and you can enjoy the powder comfortably while speeding up.
The chilly course just after going up the pair lift is also non-compacted snow.This also has a slope, so you can ride powder with full speed.On the morning of the rainy day, it is recommended to go to the Okusoechi area by gondola first!It is interesting because there are plenty of non-compacted snow courses and there are many places where you can hit the powder on the side of the course.
After slipping through the Okusoechi area, head to the Nagamine area.The Nagamine area is rich in terrain.There are plenty of walls and depressions on the side of the course, and you can enjoy long rides, so anyway, free running is fun.In the Nagamine area, we recommend the non-compacted snow Peak Performance course.A few minutes to walk with the board removed a little.The powder that still remains is spreading in front of you.Even if you skate on the Okusoechi first thing in the morning, Peak Performance still has a lot to offer.Moreover, this course is long!A powder ride with a total length of 1,000m, there is no doubt that your feet will become fluffy after slipping.
Kei Sekiguchi Recommended POINT
"If you go to the Okusoechi area with a gondola, you can enjoy the powder first. Besides, the terrain is abundant, so it's fun to play with the terrain. I wonder if I really enjoyed it just by free-running. BANKYARD in the Maiko area. Is a bank that can be carved and is kind to beginners, and I think that you can train your free run just by slipping in. After all, the rice was delicious (laughs). "
Fumika Hoshino Recommended POINT
"I think Maiko Snow Resort is a place that everyone from beginners to advanced can enjoy. The Nagamine area has a gentle slope and is safe for beginners. The park and BANKYARD are made so that anyone can play regardless of level, so skill improvement I think it's the best place for girls. It's important for girls snowboarders to have clean toilets, changing rooms, and lots of hair dryers. And there's a daycare center, so it's safe for families! "
