GoPro advice / Troubleshooting
Kellyg replied to Kellyg's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
Digital or data corruption was what I was getting. Unfortunately only have the one SD card. May have to head down to Kutchan to pick up another. Still seems odd that it works at highest resolution. -
GoPro advice / Troubleshooting

Thanks for the responses. No it is not a fog issue. I have the anti fog inserts in and it was not choppy video due vibration. Think I may have found the problem as I changed the setting today to the highest resolution. Just uploaded today's files and they appear to be working when I use the highest resolution available. Now to edit out all the crap skiing which should leave me with about 10 seconds of respectable skiing -
Arrive next week in Niseko from Aus with family after having to cancel last March. Better late than never i guess. Have heard stories of people getting caught out in the past trying to get CC cash advances from ATM's in Japan. Has the situation changed or are there any precautions that should be taken. Have prepaid for most things except ski hire and lessons.

Ski hire in Niseko
Kellyg replied to Kellyg's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
Wife was worried about FX movements. Not a biggy for me. More interested in ensuring I can hire decent equipment. I have my own boots but the rest of the family hires all equipment. Need to make sure they are OK and happy so I can enjoy -
Will be skiing Niseko next month and would like advice on the following on whether to organize and pay for ski hire on line before departure or to arrange once we arrive. Secondly any recommendations regarding ski hire in Niseko. FBS

Not surprising, however when competing for the tourist dollar it can influence the decision making process. Determined the accommodation I selected as I have an issue with people demanding full payment in August as opposed to 50% at booking with the balance 8 weeks later with no compromise on level of accommodation.
