Nightlines - Niseko 2 Hrs Night Session
If you haven't ridden at night then this is the place to do it. Niseko puts the floodlights on at night and the place goes off. Less people and better vision its odd how riding powder at night can feel easier. Pretty magical memories created at night just like you are in your own black and white movie.

Terry - Snowboard Sessions
"Richie is an amazing snow guru, he was able to help improve my confidence that has been always hampered thru custom approaches and helping my sister a first time snowboarder achieve doing turns easily and gotten her motivated to practice by herself after our time with him. Confidently use the chair lift by herself (We all know how hard it is to put yourself to the grind for a new sport especially for snowboard is especially when she had issues at the start with chair lifts)
Will no doubt reach out to Richie again for his further teaching and learning!"

Kate - Instructor Training
"Having trained to be a snowboard instructor I was really wanting to take my riding to the next level. I found the perfect instructor in Richie who really focused in on me, and developing my own 'voice' as a rider, bringing different aspects of the sport from freeride and freestyle, incorporating technique from varied and different schools and trainings. I felt he could see everything in my riding and how to improve it, tweak it, and introduce new elements that were challenging and took me out of my comfort zone. As Richie might say, I was able to locate my 'happy place' riding around Saas-Fee."
Richie is a proud member of Hokkaido Vibe, a Niseko Affiliated Snowsports School. Hokkaido Vibe is officially registered to teach at Rusutsu and Niseko United.
