It just didnt. So 2 bad years in a row is less likely you would think.

Yeah Ive been watching on mate. Do it all again next year its bound to dump hard

Comparing this year to last year will just make you cry lol

Also the shink will be a awesome for the economy but it will be a brutal blow for the crowd situation

Theres plenty missing from my hit list I know but without snow it doesnt matter where you are, slush is slush and the same goes for ice. I ended up finding truely epic lines at noz and lots of them so it became a case of why bother when it was poor conditions and then when it did snow I didnt want to be anywhere else. With snow everywhere in that area is awesome there is no doubt about that.I will definately be back, I have good friends who ride there so that alone will bring me back.

No there was only one of me Lololl

I had that happen from steamboat one day in a blizzard.

If you all combine you could make voltron

I spent a few days there. Some good bc lines to be had from the peak.

Agree. It gets a little bit annoying when people or companies spruke about awesome conditions when you are sitting there thinking how crap it is. It also gets annoying when you are not there and conditions are epic lol.

Yes I am in saitama now and fly out monday night. Im glad I made the call to come back early, I was aware of this storm and the powder hound in me was telling me to stay. If I had of stayed we may have been stuck though and missed the flight. Nagano in short. It was a bad season no doubt. Even still I had some fantastic days but only 3 or 4 that compare to last season, out of 5 weeks thats pretty poor IMO but if you rely on the weather you may just get let down. Thats a fact of life. There are lots of resorts which is great. A few have decent pitch which really makes it fun on a powde

totally agree

I am partial to 50cm given enough pitch.

Schizen housen! Obviously that much snow sucks. What would you guys say is the perfect amount for a dump before it just wrecks the party?

Damn I feared the day. Black diamond dial a crowd is destroying the place. Birdman is king!

How busy compared to last year? which board are you riding? I upload to youtube then paste the link.

When do you leave mate?

The avalanche dragon has laid its trap. Just needs people to walk into it now.

No problem. I stumbled upon it by chance last year.

No reason to

Ice caves over sculptures any day

We get it all the time in australia. I guess its a new thing to you guys lucky enough to live in japan.

I love that groomer first thing in the morning

Sounkyo ice fall festival AT NIGHT is a must. Sorry I forgot that small yet crucial detail. Be sure to walk into the caves which were under the childrens slide last year. I almost missed it, its mind blowing.

I saw that factory last year
