Hanami Drift – A Japanese Cherry Blossom-Inspired Collaboration & Limited Edition Snowboard Design by Flight Snowboards x KL Textures

🌸 Hanami Drift – The Art of Riding Through the Blossoms

Inspired by the timeless Japanese tradition of hanami—the viewing of cherry blossoms—this textured snowboard design reflects the balance between nature’s fleeting beauty and grounded strength. Subtle gradients of blush, cream, and natural earth tones flow across the board, evoking cherry petals drifting in the wind, while textured elements echo the layered intricacies of Kiara La Rocca’s signature art style.

Hanami Drift blends elegance and neutrality—designed for riders who appreciate clean aesthetics, symbolic design, and the fusion of art with adventure.


🎨 About the Artist – Kiara La Rocca (KL Textures)

Kiara La Rocca is a Perth-based textured artist and physiotherapist who creates calming, minimalist artworks through her brand, KL Textures. Her art draws heavily from the natural world—oceans, flowers, landscapes—and focuses on organic textures and neutral palettes to evoke peace, reflection, and mindfulness.

Kiara's work is meditative by nature and tactile by design, with each piece inviting the viewer (or rider) to slow down and engage with the moment. This collaboration brings her serene, nature-driven creativity into an entirely new space: the mountain.


🏂 A Functional Work of Art

The Hanami Drift snowboard is more than gear—it’s a statement piece for riders who appreciate both performance and purpose. With high-quality construction from Flight Snowboards and a surface that reflects Kiara’s textured visual language, this board brings a calm, grounded presence to the dynamic world of snow sports.
