Could something like this really happen?! It all started at the UTMF (Ultra Trail Mt. Fuji) held in April.

I will be supporting the ambassadors, Ryo Doi and Yuko Yada.

I went to Mount Fuji, where the event was held.

As you all know, both athletes achieved outstanding results.

After the race, I exhibited the Trailmaster before it was released. *The day after the race, Doi also came to see me.

A foreign photographer named Arno arrived there wearing a bib that read "Official Photographer."

I spoke to him and told him about my thoughts on the product, and he also gave me some advice. His advice was so spot on that I was thinking of sending him a promotional sample once the product was completed.

However, since he is the official photographer for the Ultra Trail World Tour , which travels the globe, it was just a prototype of a prototype, so I gave it to him on the spot, saying, "If you like this, I'd like you to try it out!"

A few weeks later, he contacted me and said he had "Big News."

The sister race of UTMF was held in Australia recently (UTAW), where we interviewed Lucy Bartholomew (International Salomon Athlete), a promising young female runner who set a new course record in the short race.

So I showed him the Trailmaster and he loved it...

What's more, she will be competing in the Western States Endurance Race (USA) , the highest level of 100-mile racing...

I would like to try Trailmaster if possible...

Although it is still undergoing final adjustments before mass production, I sent it to my girlfriend in California the other day.

He contacted me and sent me a photo saying, "This headlamp is awesome!" and "I'll definitely be using it at the Western States Endurance Race this weekend!"


A world-class athlete with 43,000 followers on Instagram said he wanted to use an unknown Japanese-made headlamp called Milestone .

I'd like to thank my photographer, Arno, for giving me this opportunity, and I'll be cheering on her in the race this weekend from 5,000 miles away in Japan.

Good luck Lucy! Good job Trailmaster!!

By the way… Western States 100 is… (from Wikipedia)

The Western States Endurance Run (formerly the Western States Endurance Run) is a 100-mile (161 km) trail race ultramarathon in the mountains of California , USA . It is commonly known as the Western States 100. Since 2014, it has been included in the Ultra-Trail World Tour .

Held since 1977, it is said to be the oldest and most prestigious 100-mile trail race in the world. [1] It is one of the four major ultramarathons (Grand Slams) in the United States, along with the Vermont 100 Mile Endurance Run, the Wasatch Front 100 Mile Endurance Run, and the Leadville Trail 100, and is the best-known ultramarathon trail race in the United States.

The race involves climbing 5,500 meters and descending 7,000 meters within a time limit of 30 hours. On average, 300 to 400 participants start the race each year, but only 15 to 30% of participants complete the race within 24 hours.
