Ski Snowboard Simulator
tokabochi replied to seemore's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
I had a go on a skiing arcade game but that was ages ago. I bet they are more fun now. -
He'll never do anything as good as Brent again. Time for a Office re-watch I think.

Buying a snowboard in Japan

Packing and moving is just the worst. Good luck -
They look too like giant insects, that's my problem with those critters!

How's the weather?

Hurray! Bit over here too. Not going to last long but good to see snow falling again. -
Any more winter left?

Alarming how quickly snow has gone from the 'walls' this last week. -
Any more winter left?
tokabochi replied to mina2's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
Definitely. We got a good amount again this year, more than just over in muika's neck of the wood, but not as many of the prolonged mad-snow events that are such.... fun. -
Sounds like a good idea, you up for sometime soon? Say, next week?

I surely need it if I don't have the new card and I go abroad.
-
It's a relief though because the woman in the city office seemed to be implying I'd be chucked out of Japan or something as it had "expired". Got me all flustered for a bit there. Bloke at the immigration on the phone was much better, he said anytime in the next 2 years ok as long as I have valid visa and re-penetration permit.

Anyone got one of the new residence thingy cards yet? I just noticed last night that my previous gaijin card has 'expired' and the town office had my going all the way up to Niigata Immigration to get the new one -- NOW!! - but on calling immigration they said "cool down, cat" - apparently the old one is totally worthless, but you only need to get the new one before 2015. Or something. So no rush to Niigata Airport. Phew. What are the new ones like? Really cool?

Zao 2012/2013
tokabochi replied to ILoveZao's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
Indeed. Doh, didn't make it again. -
They're building a new road/tunnel to get rid of 253, or at least make it a backup. It can get very bad in mid winter, but usually it's not a problem just lots of turning. You might remember the explosion they had in the tunnel on the Muikamachi side last year which has delayed it a bit. When that opens though it should make Muikamachi to Tokamachi about 20 minutes.
