Our great location near the Kitanomine Gondola gives immediate access to Furano’s best rental shops, allowing you to pick up your skis or snowboard as soon as you walk out the door. We highly recommend Rhythm Snowsports Japan, who specialize in providing gear suited to international visitors. Their excellent product selection, knowledgeable and friendly bilingual staff, flexible swapping and upgrade policies, and convenient location make Rhythm the best overall value in the area. We recommend pre-booking online to secure your gear in advance and receive a 5% discount.
The "Good Sports" Ski Rental shop, a local favourite, stocks a full range of ski and snowboards and is located in the building next door to Fresh Powder notable for their selection of "FLOW" snowboards. The Kitanomine Zone Gondola Ski and Board Rental is also just across the street.
Rhythm Snowsports offers everything from the new powder-specific reverse side cut, reverse camber, K2 Hell Bents to the classic all round Recon and everything in between. On the snowboard side they offer a MASSIVE range of boards, bindings, and boots. Such a wide selection means that visitors will have the best chance of finding the perfect ski or snowboard for every snow condition. You can even browse through the available gear on the Rhythm Snowsports Japan website, and pre-book gear to secure availability. Flexible upgrading / swapping policy and wax service means that you will always have the best gear for the current conditions, whether you’re carving up Furano’s world-class corduroy or plunging into the pristine powder at Asahidake. Advance online bookings can be paid in Australian Dollars, allowing you to save on the exchange rates if you book early.
