The RIDE Snowboards crew had an incredible winter, especially when Japan finds its way onto a travel itinerary. The hospitality of its people is second to none, the sights, sounds, and a sense of place that makes snowboarding in Japan a truly special experience. Alex Sherman and Austin Hironaka descended upon the Land of the Rising Sun for exactly this type of journey in the latest episode of “Built To Ride” from RIDE Snowboards. This video goes beyond snowboarding, it’s about having an adventure in a foreign land and making some incredible memories along the way.

Alex Sherman and Austin Hironaka set off on an Eastern Asian adventure to find the best street spots, restaurants and hair dressers that the land of Japan has to offer. Meeting up with Teddy Koo and friends, Alex and Austin get a little taste of the streets of Japan. After grabbing clips of all sorts, the boys wrap up their trip and get ready for their next adventure a little closer to home.
