This last week we had a great time with the Kirara Kamp here at NORTHSTAR. We had 2 sessions of 3 days with 5 days of park riding at Noirkura Spring Park. Plus we had mountain biking, Tyrollean Traverse, Rock Climbing and some other fun activities. Some kids could barely clear the kicker on the first day but they we sticking nice 180’s by the end of the camp. it was so great to see these kids’ grow and learn.

This was our first “snowboarding + alpha” camp. It is a pretty standard style for camps overseas and we hope to offer this style of kids camp more.

We had such an amazing powder 2-3 days before the close of the season.  This year many ski resorts really struggled with snow and even in Norikura we had very little snow.  Having said that, we are super blessed with a high elevation of 1480 Meters … almost a mile high and this allows us to have some of the greatest snow on Honshu.  Check these kids and staff in a riding session during a snowboard camp at Northstar!

At NORTHSTAR we give a lot of hi-fives. Have you ever experienced an incomplete hi-five – when you totally miss the other person’s hand?
Here’s a cool tip.
When you hi-five, look at the other person’s elbow. You can look for good timing and never miss. That’s a promise .
You can expect that a hi-five will be waiting from NORTHSTAR staff when you come.
