Guiding with Red Bull

In 2018, Kimi’s Canadian friend Nate Proulx brought him a great opportunity to introduce his field into the world.

Michelle Parker headed to Myoko Kogen with longtime friend Mark Abma to shred the coveted Japow, and to find out for themselves what skiing in Japan is truly all about.

During their time in Japan, Nate and Kimi guided them to all the best spots to find the deepest powder you can experience anywhere in the world. Watch their video and see what you yourself can also experience on a snow tour with Kimi and Japow House.
