"BOKEN BOARDING"
It's a phrase that Shin Miyajima often uses, and it may be a way of expressing his snowboarding.
Last season, Shin Miyajima traveled with Ikumi Imai to the Swiss Alps, and the few days there were truly adventurous.
Together with Miyajima's local friends, Biart and Hannes, they hunted for the fast track and skied on vast fields unique to Switzerland.
From the real, extreme side country of the Alps, location scouting for life.There is also a scene where you use splits to climb deeper into the interior at a high pace, and a hike with an altitude difference of 1800m and rock climbing.
And, anyway, I made a survival "BOKEN BOARDING" trip safely.
Apart from the content of FREERUN, which summarizes the days of this trip, the following 6 movie stories edited under the theme of Shin Miyajima's "BOKEN BOARDING" are posted on 241 Instagram (@241clothing), so I would like to introduce it.
This is the indispensable style of snowboarding for Makoto Miyajima, who is evolving while drawing a wild and free arc!
