How will skiing change next season?
To know its true value, you should try it on the snow!
The snowy mountains are also spring, and the spring season is also in the final stage. Manufacturers have announced new models for the 2022-2023 season, and snow test-ride events have been held one after another. Time is exactly the last chance for next season's ski new model test drive! Let's follow the test ride events held in various places until May and introduce them in chronological order.
The advantage of the test ride event this time of year is that you can try not only the snow quality in the peak season, but also the corn snow in early spring.
What is the one that can comfortably enjoy the long season? Now's your chance to see how it actually feels on the snow! Also, depending on the venue, you can try out goods such as goggles, helmets, and wax. Let's enjoy the spring ski resort to the fullest with a "target"!
