Most snow I’ve ever ridden. One meter in Japan!

[@user-wu4ip7mp3z]

When the guy who has ridden perfect Alaska condition says this is one of the best run of his life. You know Japan is on some shit. Can't wait to go next year!

[@GimbalGod]

It was seriously so so so damn wild. Will never get that image and feeling of the first run out of my mind

[@oliverradcliffe7974]

​@@GimbalGodhow was this vs baldface this week?

[@corneliusblackwood9014]

Japans snow is just different. I’ve been to Alaska, everywhere in the US, the Alps, Japan is an experience.

[@GimbalGod]

Oh yes you are 100% right nothing compares. Not saying it’s better than everything but an unforgettable experience nonetheless haha

[@grumpyone5963]

Do you mean it’s lighter powder, less sticky and therefore easier to ride or ski on? It did look awesome.🇬🇧

[@GimbalGod]

@@grumpyone5963 no easy to ride because it is so bottomless. Up to my waist and chest it was crazy

[@grumpyone5963]

@@GimbalGod As a skier I haven’t skied anything that deep but have a little experience with deep snow. You need to pop out to be able to turn, kind of bouncing your way down, riding the ramp you’re creating with your skis or board. I’ve skied all over Europe as well as Jasper and Whistler🇬🇧

[@mangomariel]

​@@grumpyone5963 It`s the same snow. But it can dump extremely much in one day, the terrain is different, like you have bamboo plants all over. And from my experience fewer people go off piste, so more snow for grabs. + just the experience with the culture. I have had equally amazing snow in Austria, Norway, Canada, but as a whole experience, Japan was probably best :P

[@Rodarte_]

Dude love your videos. What GoPro setting / mount do you use to get your board & body in the frame? I got the Gopro 10 black on the front of my helmet and can never. Is it the FOV settings on yours do you have your GoPro mounted in a specific spot?

[@GimbalGod]

So all of this was a GoPro MAX On the 10 I would run a 4:3 mode and if you wanted to get the most amount of field of view I would get yourself a max lens. Probably can find a used one online somewhere

[@Rodarte_]

@@GimbalGod Thank you for the response brotha!!

[@TechNinjaPro]

I love the vibe of this vid so much. I live here in Japan and absolutely love snowboarding, but I’ve got like ZERO friends who snowboard lol. Amazing vid per youshh bro.

[@mysterioanonymous3206]

Yeap. that was me when I was younger. My "friends" would just party. So I spent a great many days alone in the mountains snowboarding. No regrets. Those people won't be there whene you're older anyways, trust me, so might as well do you.... You have to man... Or you'll miss your whole life.

[@MG-sg2ci]

Don't need friends on a pow day. Go enjoy life.

[@rzadigi]

Same here. And living in Miyazaki far from the snow. My one friend who actually does snowboard went to Hakuba the day I returned from Myoko😂but epic snow even with no friends😂

first 60 or so seconds is basically just a massive orgasm 😂

[@GimbalGod]

Oh it was an orgasm I will never forget

[@Lewpoy1]

sick spenny, how insane is cortina! that tree section out the top gate is wild, just goes on and on. need to get back there

Make sure ya have your avy pack ❤️ and experience and a good crew. It was fun but can get dangerous fast. That place is all time.

@@GimbalGod yep! 😅 shovel been used a few times in those trees, access to such deep pow off the lift is gnarly stuff

[@chrisbohm4305]

@@GimbalGod every year one or two people disappear on that run to the dam. Theres a pretty crazy cliff band if you angle too much skiers left as well. Still prob the best run in Japan.

[@CodyMaverick-tp8tz]

Hi man! Great vid :) I was wondering if u were planning on updating the gimbal god tutorial, or if you've made significant changes to your settings since then. Just curious since I saw the GoPro setup vid and it seems like a lot has changed from the tutorial and that. Thanks man, and keep up the quality content :D

[@GimbalGod]

The tutorial is still my set standard for all my settings till today. All the basics and essentials for exporting, motion tracking, denoising and coloring are in that pack. I wanted to release this fall but got busy with Judd and Torgeir’s release of their projects. Will have something very special coming fall of 24’

[@zanerasmussen8889]

Spenny’s girlfriend wondering why she never has heard him scream like that. Haha this is so sick.

[@mazaradv]

Looks awesome!! But why are you not using a powder board?

[@GimbalGod]

I am! Party wave+ brother. 28cm waist width. Perfect when it’s a meter deep. You want something that has max surface area that floats in the light pow

No guide in this video, we were at Cortina

[@mashedtaters1033]

@@GimbalGod gotcha. Any guides you recommend for Japow!?

[@blade1535]

Wow that’s some long lines for the lift. A lot of Japanese resorts won’t let you use your boards to line up for the lift either before it opens. Can confirm been a few dumps in the last week or so. Once you’ve had japow you can’t go back. A lot of Japan isn’t steep enough for the amount of snow. Skis sometimes makes it easier.

[@jplpagan]

yeah, seems like a good low-angle pow board would be choice

[@mangomariel]

In Shiga Kogen it was more than steep enough for tits deep :p

[@TheLordsaviour]

I went to Niseko over Christmas and new year. The snow was good but not 1m deep good. Probably best tho as it was my sons first snowboard holiday and I would have spent most of my time digging him out. The gates weren't open at this point either, I guess that the snow came after I left.
