Born in Sapporo in the Sapporo Olympic year, Yoshi started skiing when he was 3 years of age. When he was a student, he learnt basic freestyle skiing in naturally gifted snow paradise of Niseko with powder snow and bumps. He became a professional mogul skier thus coach when he was 23 and worked worldwide including New Zealand, Canada and Finland. In 2003, after playing in Japan championship and Europe cup, he retired from his profession and came back to Niseko.

Yoshihito Tanaka
Concept
Stunning Niseko for everyone
In 2003, a former professional skier, " Yoshihito Tanaka" opened the first English-speaking ski rental shop in Niseko to serve non-Japanese customers.
Ever since we opened the door, our hope for our customers hasn't changed over the years.
Our hope is that every single person who comes to Niseko, whether it is an adult, a child, family, a group of friends, a beginner or an experienced,
has comfortable and fun time in Niseko, and says, "I want to come back to Niseko".
Through nature, the snow and with all the experiences in Niseko, we want our customers to truly feel the "Stunning Niseko".
With that hope in our minds, we try our best to provide the most suitable tools and high-quality service to make your holiday as pleasant as possible.
Stunning Niseko for everyone.
We continue to deliver services that are unpresented and beyond your expectations.
