I want to visit New Zealand for snowboarding

I'm interested in New Zealand because it has opposite seasons compared to here in Japan. So we Japanese can enjoy winter sports in summer. I went snowboarding this January in Japan.

I had gone skiing before, but I had never snowboarded. Since I learned to snowboard with trouble, I want to go snowboarding not only in winter, but also in summer. In New Zealand, the ski season starts after Japan's ends. So, I want to visit New Zealand for snowboarding in summer vacation.

I heard that many tourists who like skiing and snowboarding visit New Zealand. Therefore, I want to enjoy snowboarding with them.
