Providing a "fun" and "pleasant" ski experience for everyone
BUMPS is a pro shop that offers suggestions tailored to each customer's preferences with the attention to detail, discerning eye, product selection, and extensive knowledge that only a pro shop can offer.
Through the sale of freeskiing equipment and events, the store aims to be one that can offer a "fun" and "enjoyable" skiing experience to anyone, regardless of gender or age. According to a staff member, "Many people still have the impression that pro shops are difficult to enter, but once you step inside BUMPS, that impression will be blown away."
During the season, professional skiers also gather there, so you can hear real information and you might even encounter overseas riders who are there for filming.
Selection and product introduction from the user's perspective
We select products based on whether we would want to use them ourselves. We try to have our staff and riders actually use new products as much as possible so that we can communicate information to users. We also have products that are only available at our pro shop

[Events and campaigns]
◆ SPRING SESSION
Every year during Golden Week, BUMPS riders hold a session while giving lessons. At the same time, they also hold a test ride event for new model skis.
◆ OTONA NO STYLISHRIDE SESSION
This event is for adults who want to "still look cool when skiing!" and is designed to use the entire mountain to ski in style!
◆ BUMPS Mountaineering Club Trial Membership
This club, consisting of Ishikawa Hirofumi, Nagahama Yosuke, and Okada Hidemitsu, was formed this year with the aim of taking photos in backcountry scenes and posting them on Instagram. Last season, they held a session event within the ski resort, giving advice on how to play with the terrain and how to take lines on the slopes. Stay tuned to see how the event will evolve this season!
