REPORT

Well, he definitely stands out! The “Salaryman Boarder – Commute to the Slopes” event (pictured) is currently being held at Cortina from 2/21 (Sat.) to 2/23 (Mon., holiday), and anyone who runs into this sharply dressed rider can receive a limited, not-for-sale, original sticker (※200 per day). His black business suit and perfectly styled hair created a striking contrast against the bright blue sky and the pure white slopes.

When I asked what he normally does, it turned out he’s actually a shuttle bus driver at Hakuba Cortina. “When I started skiing in my suit during my lunch break, people began noticing me. It’s hard to move in a suit, so lately I’ve been riding in the same uniform as the other staff. But for this long weekend event, I’m back in the full business suit!” he told me.

If you show the original sticker at the shop inside Hotel Green Plaza Hakuba, you can purchase original goods at 10% off. The Salaryman Boarder added, “Normally I only ski for about an hour during my break, so riding non-stop for three days has me a little worried about my stamina, haha. I get to rest while handing out stickers though, so please come say hello!”

Also, at the base of the Ikenota Slope, the “FIELD EARTH MEETING IN CORTINA” is being held today and tomorrow, followed by the “FIELD EARTH RIDING MEETING CORTINA” on 2/23 (Mon., holiday). A representative from the brand told me, “This is our first event in Hakuba in seven years. It’s a demo and session event limited to those who have pre-registered. Please check our website and follow us on SNS so you can join us next time.”
