GENTEMSTICK The Chaser HP snowboard review /Japan snowboarding 2021 Furano・ スノーボード富良野 GoPro Max 撮影

Gentemstick is one of Japan's and Hokkaido's most respected snowboard brand with an extensive range of quality powderboards for various terrain and riding styles . The Chaser High Performance 155 is put to the test here in Japan`s powder snow at Furano in early March 2021.
This is a super light, soft and agile board, which has a loose surfy playful feel to it in the powder and carves it up exceptionally well on the groomers with the Gentemstick accel camber profile locking in turns. It just shreds all around the resort in and out of the trees! On a day with more powder I would go with the Chaser which is wider giving me more float and on super deep days the Flyfisk would be the go being a much bigger board at164 cm long and wider, though this board would not be as agile and playful for me.
Footage captured mainly with the Go Pro Max 360.
On the Japan Snowboarder channel I am riding and reviewing powder snowboards to help you understand the many different shapes out there and how it would ride in the snow especially in Japan!
Make sure you check out the future review of the Gentemstick The Chaser HP discussing all the attributes of this powder machine!

Ken San! Epic riding buddy. I really enjoy your vids and need to get out to Furano next season. Im heading to Niseko for a quick week this year and want to demo a couple of Gentem boards. Trying to decide between the Gentem Chaser and Chaser HP. I'm leaning towards the HP for my weight (72-73kg) but I'm a little unsure about boot size with 10 (Mondo 28). Can I ask what your boot size is and if you had an issues with drag? It seems with the waist and tail width I should theoretically be ok and like the idea of the more manoeuvrable HP for all resort riding. Thanks legend!
