Yeah we can get a bit ugly can't we

My wife and kids are like that

Dude, Rusutsu don't belong to you dude. I bet the owners were well chuffed to have the hordes descend. And long may it continue, I want Rusutsu to survive Granted I think it is great for the company I doubt Rusutsu struggles though with 3 golf courses and an amusement park in summer they make money all year round. I understand it dosen't belong to me but the reason I pay thousands is so I don't have to deal with crowds I eat & drink at the resort and pay good money to stay here I can have a whinge can't I ?

Ruined it wee need more snow

Not bad today all the lifts were open a bit windy up the top and came in at 2:30 as it was blowing a bit and snowing It has affected the snow though some great drifts but then you hit the rough stuff not good when you cant see

I wish

Seen so many skiers doing it on there stupid big fat long skis as well

We had Gondolas on windhold yesterday so Heavenly and #3&4 weren't open either so raced up the mountain today and managed to get Heavenly valley before the hordes arrived from Niskeo there would have been 200 at least all foreigners from everywhere and they trashed the whole heavenly valleys and runs in 2 hours then they all disappeared There were heaps of guides showing people all the stuff you would need days to find normally. Saw one guide lead 14 people under a robe to get to the back of heavenly view when the rope only went for another 3M absolute tossers Please Niseko don't get wi

Guess where they all went today bus loads of them trashed the mountain in 2 hours

Snowing in Rusutsu and has been for the last 2 hours Keep it coming

Got on a lift today with 2 guys telemarkers (quad) as their was a queue and they opened the hood I was freezing didn't ride with them again

i've been checking the updates obsessively. it definitely snowed more yesterday and today vs the forecast on snowjapan. Yeah sorry mate it does that I was watching the wind not the depth never seen that one right ever

Hey Matic Not sure what forecast you are watching but if you check out http://www.snowjapan.com/japan-ski-resorts/hokkaido/rusutsu/rusutsu-resort/snow-weather-reports it did what it was supposed too

Reporting 20cms on official site but windblown stashes deeper 20cms on the ground at East base been snowing all day but windy

well done Mike Wish I had someone to film and edit me love your choice of tunes as always

Switched to Microsoft movie maker

Nice Mike Love the nice big pine trees in the middle of the 1st run

Got 4 hours before the wind came back needed to do some washing Everyone was over Isola so just played in the valleys of East busy but still got the goods not just Aussies but Seppos/Canadians swarms of Euros with ABS backpacks shovels and I presume probes on massive planks because it's dangerous in the trees although not sure if the ABS backpack saves you if you hit a tree. Quite a few Japanese which is cool I get to share lifts and learn something love watching the old guys bombing around on skis with perfect style

Rusutsu has been Ok apart from the last week the base is 50cms higher than last year so you have to duck more branches so snowfall has been good Mikes Vids show he gets the goods just a bit of local knowledge, research and luck also helps The only downfall with Rusutsu has been more people and ski school

Nice wind blown stashes and maybe 10cms in Rusutsu

Cant upload just freezes when I try to export Loving the Birdman the Pinner was good on steep & deep but really stiff and uncomfortable to ride My mate 2 days in was rocking the Birdman I love the flex you can really pop and drive in the Pow just starting to learn to navigate more with the rear foot but awesome board mate cheers for the heads up. Twice as busy as last year tracks everwhere places that people wouldn't normally ride big groups of 8-10 just watching you and busting up everything may be time to move on

Got it with 30 plus 5m on r/hand side after the dump did 4 runs and trashed it

Another 2M hopefully 27th mate this place is busy I am riding creeks to escape everyone

I would upload vid but can't seem to get GoPro to export my files
