It all went down on the Sunsports Field, Niseko on the 1st of Feb for the 4th Annual Rhythm Japan Rail Jam.
Where 50 of the best rail raiders were hand chosen to compete. We saw over 3000 stoked spectators in attendance, DJ’s spinning the decks, fire dancing, the local taiko drum crew and special guests judges Pep & Eric. The riders and crowd put on an absolute shred show…it sure was a night to remember!
All the riders took on the epic special build park with throwing down huge 360, switch slides – it was absolutely insane talent! Yuri was a crowd standout, putting down a solid bag of huge tricks.
Then Yutaro turned things up a notch, putting down an incredible display that left everyone in the crowd extremely impressed!
The entire night showcased how talented and progressive rail riding in Niseko! After the jam of non-stop action, it was Yutaro, Miyon and Olly who took out the event, throwing down a handful of tricks that the crowd had never seen before!
Yuri , is one of the hottest snowboarders currently on the scene, narrowly missed out on first place, putting on an absolute show for the crowd with an impressive tricks and style!
After the event came to an end, the 3000 plus crowd and competitors all made their way to Bills Bar for a massive party to celebrate!
