Rhythm Rail Jam 2026

Rails, riders, and rad vibes: The Rhythm Rail Jam is officially back, and this time, we’re cranking up the stoke for the biggest showdown yet! We’re talkin’, the gnarliest jibs, sickest lines, and butters so phat you could spread ‘em on toast!

Back in 2013 when Rhythm Rail Jam first kicked off, it was a tiny jib setup out the back of our Rhythm Hirafu store, both built and ridden by our staff. Now, it’s Niseko’s largest event on the annual winter calendar, attracting over 4,000 people and 82 pro riders as competitors. 

And, not only will 2026’s edition once again see the Rhythm crew taking over Niseko Tokyu Grand Hirafu’s iconic Free Ride park for our course set up, it will also see Rhythm Japan partnering with the iconic NINE’s crew, who will have a hand in this year’s course design. It's going to be massive
