Lost Arrow, which handles many brands such as Black Diamond, Flitch, Scarpa, and Osprey, will be holding a ``Backcountry Ski Gear Experience Session''. At this trial session, you can actually hike up a snowy slope and ski using test drive gear, which is not easy to test on snow.
There are two programs: ``Hike Up Gear Experience'' where you can try out the walking performance of boots, bindings, and climbing skins, and ``Avalanche Gear Experience'' where you can try out various avalanche gear through companion rescue using avalanche beacons and airbag deployment. You can participate.
In addition, we will also hold practical training sessions such as a one-point hike lesson with mountain guide Genki Narumi and a search experience using an avalanche beacon. Participation is free, and there's also a nice perk: lift tickets are free on the day.
On the day of the event, you will be able to test drive skis, boots, bindings, and various avalanche gear, including new models. Telemark has also been added, so why not take this opportunity to try it out?
