 So we're in Hakuba Valley at Hapaone, Skiria, and at the top we're on the looker's left side and a big bowl called South Bowl. So basically a quick run down of the face there's cliffs more technical section on the looker's right side with it seems to be the way the wind has affected it a little bit more variable snow. And then on the looker's left side there are some rolly terrain features that look like really fun for me and snowboarding style you know and then in the middle sort of down halfway is a big horseshoe sort of arena and with cliffs on all sides. This face is a little bit different than the classical big mountain lines it's more playful so you have maybe a little bit smaller cliffs to jumps from and more wind lips that you can use as kind of big jumps and coming from the side and do tricks so definitely more a freestyle orientated face. Yeah so face check obviously a huge part of sport for us we don't get to go down the face it's all about knowing how to read a mountain from a distance through binoculars through cameras through drone footage and all these tools we have to figure out the line that inspires us because it looks a lot different once you get to the top of it right so it's it's taken that two-dimensional view from the front or from the picture and and rotating it in your head to what you're gonna be seeing while you're headed down at full speed and sending it so it's just experience in the mountains and knowing how to read stuff. So sending down the forerunners means that you get a bit of a bit of a grasp on how the snow is and you get to see how big some of the features are compared to somebody in the face. Today that forerunners me so hopefully we're gonna do a good job for them. See you down there. So next forerunner, Javi Graham. So feeling pretty nice down here actually. Really enjoying that. I have to say really nice snow actually I was really surprised I guess the way that the wind has hit the face the looker's left side is probably in better condition than the the right side. Pre-pump dude. Okay so feedback. When you were looking at the slope today we were like right that's definitely where I'm gonna go. It depends like here in Hukuba I like I didn't really have a line that just like appeared to me and I was like I want to do this so I think I'm gonna do a lot of yeah a lot of scoping watching photos and maybe watching your run again. How was it by the way? That was great and thanks thanks for letting me do that. That was champagne powder in the middle. I think there is potential for really like the take-offs are gonna be as good as you know they get in by country riding. It's just about the landings. I definitely think the snow is a bit more variable than we're used to. A lot of the times we get beautiful powder and this is gonna be a little bit trickier but I'm almost kind of excited for it because it's gonna really test technique and I think that it's good for all of us to be able to ski variable snow. That's a perfect place for tricks and it's super playful. You're gonna have fun and it's not about big jumps but it's gonna be nice to have some tread and to cruise on the face. It's gonna be cool. Are we gonna see one of those signature Drew Tabaki backflips? Well you're gonna have to tune in Patty but I can say that I will be going upside down and it won't be an accident. Okay awesome I hope you land it. That's the first time I've experienced a face check at the Freeride World Tour. Pretty cool. Got to speak to a lot of athletes after and everyone's got big plans so yeah should be good. Tune in on Red Bull TV to find out what happens.
