★ Interview with Raimu Katayama
Competitor, movie star. In his mind, both terms may have been synonymous with "snowboarder." There is a proverb that says, "You become good at what you love," but for Katayama Raimu, this has gone far beyond that. The "dreams of the past" that such a man has challenged. The "dreams of the future" that he will challenge himself to anew. Katayama Raimu's journey to become the world's best snowboarder has only just begun.
★ All for SNOWBOARDING
What is it about snowboarding that makes it so addictive?
What does snowboarding mean to you? Many of you reading this article enjoy snowboarding every winter, and as a part of your life.
