Yoichi Goto’s first skiing trip to China was a pleasant surprise. The 33-year-old runs the Asian arm of the Freeride World Tour, an off-piste skiing and snowboarding competition, from his base in Niseko, on the northern Japanese island of Hokkaido. In February, having landed in Beijing, he took the four-hour bus journey to Genting Resort Secret Garden — set to be China’s largest ski resort when it is complete — and a key host site for the 2022 Winter Olympics.
