Academy Student

Reido [Freezing Point]
Description: The very foundation upon which all of Yukigakures Ninjutsu is based upon. By using chakra to manipulate water, a Snow-nin is able to freeze an available water source which can then be used for Ice or Snow based Ninjutsu. Snow ninja are able to use this ability to freeze moisture found within the enviroment in order to create ice in any situation as long as moisture is present. This jutsu is required for the rest of the techniques in this tree.

Yuki Bunshin [Snow Clone]
Description: A very basic and easy to learn technique which involves manipulating snow into a very compact version of the user. The Yuki Bunshin is fully capable of combat although it isn't very durable, after all it is only made out of packed snow. Similar to a walking snowman, this clone doesn't make a very good decoy but can be very useful in battle due to the fact that numbers can always be good to have on your side in a heated confrontation.

Reinigiri [Zero Grip]
Description: A jutsu that is the most well known jutsu in all of Yukigakure and Hidden Snow itself. By forcing chakra onto the their feet, the shinobi is able to walk atop of snow with ease and move around on Ice with no problem whatsoever. This jutsu is mandatory for most shinobi as it allows them to be a master of their element and enviroment.

Genin

Yukikumo No Jutsu [Snow Cloud Technique]
Description: A jutsu that normally wouldn't possess much use unless a Snow shinobi finds himself outside of his home territory. By condensing moisture and freezing it above the battlefield the Snow-nin can cause large snow clouds to appear and pour down large amounts of snow for the ninja himself to utilize in whatever way one can think of. Another affect of this jutsu is that the amount of snowfall can reduce vision similar to that of a regular smoke bomb.

Yuki Shuriken No Jutsu [Snow Shuriken Technique]
Description: This jutsu allows a shinobi to compact snow into the form of shurikens, their abilities are exactly similar to regular shuriken. This jutsu can be used in multiple ways but requires chakra to throw the shuriken themselves if the shinobi chooses not to throw them with his own hands.

Yuki No Yoroi [Armor Of Snow]
Description: By collecting large amounts of snow around themselves, the shinobi is able to force chakra into the snow flakes and make them compact in such a way that the result of this jutsu is a flexible full body armor made entirely of snow. Katons instantly disperse this armor. This armor lasts until it has been destroyed.

Yuki Koutai [Snow Shift]
Description: By placing an item ontop of a pile of snow, the user is able to force chakra into the item itself and cause the snow to shift positions. This jutsu can allow one to move an item from one spot to another in an instant as long as there is snow between where he put the item down and where he wishes it to reappear. The maximum distance for this jutsu is about fifteen metres.

Chuunin

Yuki Kishu [Snow Rider]
Description: By standing atop of a patch of snow, the Snow-nin is able to fashion himself a very manueverable and swift vehicle of sorts. Using the snow as leverage the shinobi can force the snow to move in any direction he wants, making moving around much easier as the snow moves faster than the shinobi is able to run. This snow cannot move anywhere where there was is no snow.

Yuki No Tate [Snow Shield]
Description: Compacting snow and drawing it upwards the Snow-nin is able to create a shield of snow directly in front of wherever they point their open palm. While this shield cannot be moved around at Genin level as it must stay in place along with the user to maintain an open palm, At Chuunin level it is able to be moved around as long as the user keeps his hand open at all times. This shield can withstand most projectiles and physical attacks but isn't very good for defending against Ninjutsu.

Yuki Enchou [Snow Dome]
Description: By pulling Snow up from around themselves the user is able to form a igloo made entirely out of compact Snow all around them. This dome is large enough for the user to remain inside but has very little room in which to move around. This dome is able to repel any attack that is Genin or Chuunin level aimed towards it, Jounin techniques are able to destroy this dome instantly.

Koori Suiei No Jutsu [Ice Swimming]
Description: A variation on the infamous Inner Decapitation Technique from Iwagakure. Utilizing either Snow or Ice as the medium, the shinobi is able to swim beneath the hard and compact chosen surface. If the shinobi chooses to grab onto an opponent and drag him under, he will be buried from up to the neck in ice or in the case of snow, buried completely.

Yukinami [Snow Wave]
Description: By slamming their fists into the snow covered ground a Snow-nin is able to make a somewhat large wave of Snow rise into the air and proceed in the direction they have aimed their fists towards. This wave of Snow is ten metres high and ten metres wide. It is able to block most oncoming Taijutsu and projectiles and is able to sweep up anyone and anything within its path before burying them in the moderate amount of snow. This jutsu is useful for clearing a path of any obstacles or burying your opponent.

Gekido Sekkei [Raging Snowstorm]
Description: By using the moisture in the atmosphere the user begins to make snow fall forth into the ground. Shortly after the large amount of snow begins to fall the wind picks up and begins to spin this snow into a very large and deadly blizzard. This blizzard is about fifteen metres in length and due to chakra compacting the snow even further the flakes of snow are able to slice into the skins causing damage equal to about a cut from a senbon. While this normally isn't very dangerous when stuck within the storm itself this can be very dangerous. Due to the user being in the eye of the storm he is unaffected but cannot move. The winds also help redirect projectiles.

Yoki Rippoutai [Snow Cube]
Description: A very useful jutsu depending on the enviroment. By slamming one fist into nearby snow the user is able to force a large block of snow ranging about fifteen feet by fifteen feet in size to launch itself forth from the snow in a general direction. While this normally wouldn't be a very deadly jutsu, this snow travels exceedingly fast and can crush a foe somewhat easily. If this cube were to hit any dense objects it would explode with the force of an exploding tag. This jutsu requires a fair amount of snow upon the ground.

Kaginari Yuki [Eternal Snow]
Description: This jutsu is passive. By compacting snow or iceand super cooling it even further by the use of chakra, any snow or ice that is made by a snow-nin who has learnt this jutsu is completely unmeltable by natural warmth or heat. While Ninjutsu used by shinobi that normally would cause things to melt or burn would melt this snow depending on the opponents Ninjutsu prowess. Heat in the atmosphere or any other non-chakra infused heat source will be unable to melt this super cooled snow.

Jounin

Kantaite [Frigid Hand]
Description: When an opponent is standing near or around a batch of Snow, this jutsu can be used. Forcing chakra into the nearby Snow, a large hand is able to extend to upwards of fifty feet. Once this hand makes contact with an opponent or object it completely surrounds the opponent in compact snow. This snow cannot be broken out of unless the shinobi possessess a Jounin level Taijutsu. Normally avoiding this somewhat large and bulky hand is ones best option.

Yukitama Renda No Jutsu [Snowball Barrage Technique]
Description: By compacting snow into a group of twenty small snowballs, the user is able to freeze them into a very dense state. Once this is performed the user is able to send this snowballs in a barrage towards any target they desire but once they are launched their direction cannot be changed. These snowballs each exploding with the power of an exploding tag. Usually this technique is used in a mortar sort of offensive, more useful in long range combat than upclose.

Kaizen Yuki Bunshin No Jutsu [Improved Snow Clone Technique]
Description: An improvement upon the first and somewhat inferior Yuki bunshin. Using advanced knowledge and chakra control this jutsu comes into light. Compacting snow and water together to form a very dense and durable clone, this new Yuki bunshin is no longer considered "weak" among anything else. The difference between this clone and its previous is that his clone is more compact, fully capable of withstanding more than one blow. It is also able to house items and weapons within its stomach or upon itself if the user feels like placing such a thing inside or upon them.

Touketsu Naiou [Frozen Depths]
Description: This technique can only be performed on a large body of Snow. Regardless of this it is quite a deadly jutsu when placed in the right situation. By forcing a fair amount of chakra into the snow upon which an opponent is standing, the Snow-nin forces an area of about 10 metres around the opponent to revert back into a supercooled yet liquid state. After two seconds it reverts back into snow, either trapping an opponent beneath the cold depths or letting him get away.

Jakunen [Desolation]
Description: This technique can only be performed after an opponent has been buried or covered in snow. By using chakra to make the snow contract with extreme pressure, this jutsu causes anything within the snow itself to be crushed completely. This jutsu is usually used to cripple or kill an opponent outright if he has been covered in snow. This technique can only be used in death enabled threads or with an opponents permission.

Kaizen Yuki No Yoroi [Improved Armor Of Snow]
Description: By collecting large amounts of snow around themselves, the shinobi is able to force chakra into the snow flakes and make them compact in such a way that the result of this jutsu is a flexible full body armor made entirely of snow. This armor lasts until its damage limit has been exceeded. This armor consumes a lot of chakra.

Yukinsei [Snow Comet]
Description: A very powerful jutsu that has been recently created by the newest Hyougakage. By creating a large amount of snow high up in the sky and compacting it to a very high degree, an extremely large ball of snow is created. The chakra that is used to compact the comet itself circles around inside of ball and explodes with the force of two exploding tags when it makes contact with something. This ball can be aimed in a general direction and once it is sent flying it cannot be stopped.

Kage/Sannin

Nadare No Jutsu [Avalanche Technique]
Description: This jutsu requires a very large amount of snow. By focusing 50% of his chakra into the snow directly infront of him, the snow-nin is able to make a large tsunami of snow rise up into the air. This wave is able of destroying an entire army of ninja and has been forbidden to be used inside of Yukigakure or Hidden Snow unless there is no other way to defeat an opponent. This wave continues on its path of destruction, trapping anyone and anything caught in its path beneath the pure white depths. Only the user is able to avoid this technique by being directly behind the technique itself.

Kaginarifuyu [Eternal Winter]
Description: A jutsu that can only be performed by the most talented shinobi that reside in the country of Snow. This technique causes a massive change into the climate of a certain area and is mainly used to change a warm climate into a cold one, letting a Snow shinobi reign supreme. By manipulating the moisture within the ground and air the shinobi is able to make an eternal winter begin by freezing the water beneath the earth itself and turning the ground into frost. The air then becomes cold and snow begins to fall for seven days and seven nights leaving the once fertile area into the current state which the Snow country is in. This jutsu can only be used twice in a lifetime as it actually permanently damages the inner coil by draining so much chakra.

Yukikeiji [Snow Apocolypse]
Description: This jutsu can only be performed once a thread as afterwards it leaves the snow shinobi completely drained almost to the point of uncounciousness. By manipulating the moisture within the atmosphere up far into the skies the shinobi is able to make about fifty giant comets made entirely out of snow. These comets descend upon a targeted area, filled with chakra and ready to explode as soon as they make contact. This jutsu brings new word to long range artillery and is only used in the most dire of situations. These comets each explode with the force of four exploding tags.
