This day has finally arrived this season.
This is the 4th time for girls to tour Hokkaido for girls only.
"THE 4th. G-CUBIC TOUR"
What kind of three days will the girl riders, 2 girls snowboarders and 43 coaches, who have returned to Niseko Hirafu for the first time in 5 years, spend a total of 48 days?
Let's go! !! !!
■ Haneda Airport-Chitose Airport
The customary gathering scenery at Haneda Airport, everyone gathers exactly without being late.
Most of the participants I met for the first time are all nervous.However, when I showed that face three days later, everyone would get along with each other so much that I would laugh at the impossible nervous face, so snowboarding is wonderful!
After a long flight and a long wait for Chitose, I finally got on the bus and left for Niseko!
I hear voices from all over the place saying, "Hokkaido is cold after all."Hokkaido, don't be fooled.

(The G tour has finally started. It's already Dockin Dockin.)
■ Chitose Airport-Niseko Hirafu
The snowboard video and the previous OFFLINE EDIT MOVIE were screened in the car immediately, and everyone was looking seriously even though it was early in the morning.
Participants will start introducing themselves in the car using the travel time of the long-distance bus from the middle.Participants this time were somewhat positive, and they were more and more appealing with laughter, laughter, and self-introduction with laughter.While doing so, I gradually became hungry, and the bus took a short break for lunch at the SBN tour specialty "Mushroom Kingdom".
I don't know if a certain rider said, "Because there are only girls, eat crazy!", But everyone said "sea urchin", "crab", "how much", "local chicken", "mushroom", etc. I was already eating it steadily.
It was about an hour before Niseko Hirafu, and I was full, and in a blink of an eye, it became quiet, and only the voice of the bus guide's older sister was in the car ...

(For those who don't like mushrooms, it's a little tight. But there are also skewers of local chicken, so it's delicious.)
■ Niseko Hirafu arrived!
Eight hours after leaving Narita ... I finally arrived at Niseko Hirafu!I will visit "Hotel Niseko Scott" in front of the slope, which is always indebted to me at this inn.
The 43 girl riders who participated in this tour to slip and slip and slip and slip immediately change their clothes and leave for the slopes! On the 2nd and 3rd days, teams were divided by a simple level check in order to be a complete team action.
When we divide the levels, the level of the participants rises year by year!I want to convey the fun and fun of snowboarding to girls who love snowboarding!SBN STAFF, who planned this tour with the thought, is still getting excited.
One of the attractions of Niseko for snowboarders who have come all the way from Honshu is night skiing.Even though I'm a night game, I can't really believe it's smooth.The hokkaiders (participants living in Hokkaido) slipped until late at night to the extent that they were amazed ...
Photographer ALI's Photographer's Eye!
(It's a great group of girls when everyone gathers. All the participants are getting more and more friendly.)
■ Okay!I'll slip!If you think ...
From the second day, actions by team.Free run, jib, powder, pipe, rail rubbing, jumping, etc. Let each team slide freely to enjoy all of snowboarding in the vast Niseko field increase.Behind them are two video cameramen who follow the team.It will be screened at a party, so please decide that it's good! !!
However, this tour is windy ... The lift has stopped since the morning.Even in such a situation, the five coaches who are familiar with the fun of snowboarding will take you to a fun place while raising the tension of the participants.

(Everyone hikes in a terrible strong wind. Unless you're snowboarding LOVE, this isn't normal.)
■ Lunch time
Since I came to Hokkaido, I'll spare no meal and skate all day long!For no reason, lunch for everyone is one of the pleasures of the tour.Perhaps the belly clock told me, each team scattered all over the slopes came back exactly at lunch time and enjoyed the meal.
One of the most popular is the mortar ramen. As the name suggests, the mortar contains ramen. You may hear a Mimura-style manzai saying, "That's a manzai!", But this is pretty good.Don't eat this next year.

(The special ramen at lunch was delicious. I recommend it!)
■ And to the lesson
Each team is full and decides what to do in the afternoon.Unfortunately, the weather isn't enough for powder, so there are a lot of teams trying straight rainbow rails.
There were many participants who said that this was their first rail, but it was decided that it would be fun to try.The trigger was a professional rider!That's why everyone was crazy.
However, this is also something that will improve.Let's enjoy various ways of playing with the rider on this tour!We don't have any special lesson time because of the purpose, but you can see that you can improve steadily with a little coach's advice.
If you enjoy it with your favorite coach, you'll be good at it!do you mean.

(Challenge spirit! Awesome G rider)
■ Niseko Hirafu arrived!
Eight hours after leaving Narita ... I finally arrived at Niseko Hirafu!I will visit "Hotel Niseko Scott" in front of the slope, which is always indebted to me at this inn.

■ It should be a relay
Every G-CUBIC tour has a regular team competition relay on the final day.This time as well, each team was burning for the prize money given to the winning team, but they could not win the power of nature ... Most of the lifts stopped due to strong winds, and the relay was abandoned.
The girls riders, who quickly switched to "what should I do?", First sought a moving lift, and the T-bar lift also sought the snow that had accumulated even a little, and moved around the wide Niseko hirafu slopes.
While doing so, the sunny days gradually began to peek, and the weather was completely nice before I knew it.And the powder that has accumulated in some places sprays it nicely again.

(No. I am happy to be blessed with the weather on the last day of the G tour every year.)
■ The three fun days are over ...
On the last day, some people will return early due to the flight. It was a lonely moment to say goodbye to my friends who spent three wonderful days together.Staff CK, who acted as a video cameraman, was on the verge of crying because of the tears of the participants!But it's okay, I'm a member who spent such a strong 3 days, so I'm sure I can meet again on the slopes somewhere!
Participants slipping to the very end.This dreamy three days will be over soon, so skate to your heart's content.

(I enjoyed the powder quietly between the shoots. After all, snowboarding is the best!)
■ Niseko Hirafu-Chitose Airport-Haneda Airport
"Farewell Niseko Hirafu!"
All the participants and coaches said goodbye to Niseko Hirafu, who had been entertained for three days, and the bus left for reality.
It seems that I was soaked in sentiment, but at Chitose Airport, I ate seafood again, fell asleep on the plane, and everyone broke up to their homes.
This year, not only the participants but also the staff were not injured (* see the previous tour report), and the weather made me cry, but I knew that I could enjoy it enough even in such a situation, and everyone was able to come back with a smile. rice field.
Thank you everyone for 3 days!

(Thank you for your hard work for 3 days.)
■ Saturday Night Fever
The attraction of the G-CUBIC tour is the mountains, mountains, and mountains of luxury prizes that will be awarded to all participants.Some of the regulars who participate every time are looking for this, or not.Needless to say, the tour itself is fun, and the party is amazing, so it's good!
From this year, we have decided to distribute SBN OFFLINE EDIT T-shirts to all participants, so they are all wearing the same T-shirts.This is one mind and body!It's going to be so exciting this year that my memories will fly! !! !!

(Everyone wants a matching T-shirt, isn't it? Pair look?-> 50 look ??)
■ Drink, eat, make noise, drink
Girls flocking to the dining table all at once
Girls opening beer all at once
Girls who start to refill all at once
Girls emptiing beer all at once
Girls who surround the coach and release the shutter all at once
Is this the sake pond meat turbulence?
Photographer ALI's Photographer's Eye!
(All the participants seemed to have fun. Coaches and video cameramen too!)
■ Gorgeous, messy
And the party has come to an end, and the lottery is finally here!This time as well, we received a lot of sponsorship products from manufacturers.Everyone's eyes are different just by looking at the prizes lined up, it's a little scary, it's being pushed by the momentum.
Feel this luxury that can't be expressed in words anymore in the picture below!If you can't feel it, I'll be waiting for you next year! !!Of course, those who feel it are also welcome! !!

(Manufacturers. Thank you for your support. Thank you for your continued support next year.)
G tour annual big lottery!
Snowboarding is all fun!So let's all slip in Hokkaido!
Thanks to the coaches and participants who agreed with this slogan, we were able to hold the G-CUBIC TOUR safely this time as well.
It took some time for the recognition that "it's a tour, not a camp" to take root, but I feel that the fun has taken root with the fourth time.
"Camping to improve" is important and interesting, but I think "tours to enjoy" are also pretty cool.And as long as there are all the girl riders who are looking forward to the tour, I would like to power up every year.
G-CUBIC TOUR will be back next year.Next year, we are planning from mid-February to late February so that you can enjoy Hokkaido in the best possible condition.
More cool, more sultry, more aggressive tours
See you in Niseko again in 2004!
Finally, we would like to thank all the coaches, manufacturers, and Niseko Scott staff for their support and cooperation in holding this tour.

afterwards···
One day in the summer, OFFLINE EDIT participants gathered at a certain place in Tokyo to screen an OFFLINE EDIT MOVIE (tour video).
The tour video was available for purchase by all participants and was delivered immediately after the tour, but let's get together and watch it on the big screen!So a lot of participants gathered.
The video contains my own slip on the music, and everyone is delighted with editing like a movie star (?).It will be exciting!
OFFLINE EDIT MOVIE is on sale for each tour, so it's a pleasure for those who participated in the tour after the tour, and it's also the best memorial.
