Niseko with the Seven Samurai Crew

Posted by admin on 16 Mar 2009 / 0 Comment

I’m staying at The Pink House over in Niseko right now, a great little house pretty much in the middle of nowhere. The house consists solely of DJ’s with not a snowboarder in sight which is strange considering its location. We all headed out to Sapporo at the weekend for a Psy-Trance night they run. My initial aim was to photograph the whole event but it unfolded into a very messy all nighter with my camera untouched for 95% of the evening.

Whilst recovering from the Sapporo madness i received an invite to go riding with the Seven Samurai Crew as they descended on Niseko in mass. The idea was to have a day cruising the park as they film for their latest DVD. A fresh 40cms had fallen during the night so it was a super relaxed vibe with the light not working in our favour most of the day was just spent shredding. Here’s Burton team rider Takaharu Nakai who was destroying everything all day long.
