Encouraged by his father, Azamat Adalbek also began to learn the traditional craft of making fur snowboards. For him, this process is not only a continuation of his family's culture, but also an important rite of passage for personal growth.

"I really enjoy the thrill of skiing. Every time I step on the snowboards, I can feel the speed of the wind and the sense of freedom," said Azamat Adalbek.

Influenced by social media, Azamat Adalbek has gained some understanding of skiing cultures from around the world. However, this has not diminished interest in his own ethnic traditional skiing skills.

"Compared to modern skis, mastering the sliding technique of using fur snowboards is actually more difficult, and I need to spend more time practicing," said Azamat Adalbek.
