Two years after the original W.A.R.U. in Death, and we’re back to Japan for the bizarre spectacle that is W.A.R.U. in DEATH Returns. NSFW/children warnings should probably be applied here as in all honesty it’s a little bit of a messed up affair…

In amongst the ladyboys, Harley-Davidson intermissions, cat vomit, snowboard tennis and weird male nudity moments, there is however, a whole heap of snowboarding worth watching. Mega bomb drops, hell for leather hit and hope moments, gnarly muddy rail spots, and the slams that go with them – all bundled up with level of looseness that seems to be slightly more absent in many crews these days. Whether that’s a good or a bad thing, we’ll leave up to you.

Featured riders: KAZUHEI NOMURA, MASA NOAKI, KOZO HASEGAWA, YOSUKE SHIROYAMA, KAEDE YASUNAGA, HAYATE YASUNAGA, HIROSHI SUGANUMA, SHIMPEI SHIMODA, MUGA SHIMOSATO and ANIKI
