What is COWDAY?

Since 2015, we have been holding a competition to determine the pinnacle of freestyle snowboarding as the pinnacle of the Japanese snowboarding scene, with the aim of producing world-class snowboarders and developing the snowboarding industry as a whole. COWDAY, which was held in front of Osaka Station in 2019 with snow brought in, welcomed 3 visitors over three days. It boasts an unprecedented number of visitors for a snowboarding contest, and has grown into one of Japan's leading snowboarding events. Starting in 8,000, various events will be held throughout the year through online video contests and snowboarding/slopestyle contests on snow. By holding online contests that reflect the times and the slopestyle contest, which is an Olympic event, we are promoting the development of the industry and providing a place to develop snowboarders who can be active around the world.
