The Dream Session returns to Hakuba Norikura for the third year on March 18th -20th. Here’s our gallery of some of the best moments from the last two years.
Presented by Goro Komastu with the Live Naturally crew, this event is all about fun. With a deep snowpack this year and good weather forecast, here’s a visual taste of the creative transition fun you can expect at the event. If this looks like your dream idea of spring riding, full event info is on our Facebook page here.
Binding-less riding has always been well represented at the Dream Session, and this year Monday March 20th is ‘freefoot jam’ day – no bindings!
