hello to all who still knows me... hey, has something changed at the lift policy in tenjindaira? last year, you only could go one time up with the gondola each day (so they could control the backcountry better...) is it still like this or is backcountry riding accepted again? ride hard ivo

i never have to drink alcohol during the day, ther's still plenty of it from the night before in my brain... but mort, compare to europe, japanese people are sober when boarding!

i hope brazil can win the final and south-korea can win the semifinal!!! cause, if germany winns we can't watch german tv anymore for one month (they would only tell about how a great nation they are...) and, if turkey wins, the fans would make big car (mercedes) corsos and we would have traffic jams with turkey flags for at least 2 days....

sorry, saw this ways too late! try "wazzas world" 09013052561 say a hello from ivo (he should give me one day for free for each customer i've sent to him!!!!!!)

how about "krumel" (on the u are 2 points) it's german and means great, big

most boring movie i saw last year! acctually wasn't it that bad, beatiful scenes, action, thrill.... BUT, after 3 (!) hours watching like they find friends, fight, loose friends, walk on, find friends, fight, loose friends, walk on, find friends, fight, loose friends, walk on, find friends, fight, loose friends, walk on........... it's getting boring! the worst thing about the whole film is that you leave after 3 hours the cinema and there is NO END!!!!! the film ends in the middle of the story! so you have to wait for another year to see the second part and another year to p

there is only one real good drink to cheese. white wine! best cheese is real swiss gruyere

one make means you just can make one jump (...and the day is over with a broken leg...) over this facility. in the rest of the world we would say big-air, jump, table, kicker.....

i'm for the third year 25!

check out the post offices all arround japan. i'm not shure but i think they are open 24 hours and you can use all western cards there!

go for shugar-high, shibuya at friday night. 2500 yen all you can drink till 5.00 am

if you just ride without special gear and cloating you can get a maximum speed between 80 and 90 km/h usual speed would be around 30km/h

i like the windlip by the snow monsters on top of zao (the picture should be developed soon...)

i think it will stay like 50/50 skiers and snowboarders. but hey, barok, split boards, (are almost as old as snowboarders trying to go backcountry) long boards, (i rode my first longboard in 1994) swallowtail & powdertail boards (they came out before someone tried to built steeledges on a snowboard...) [/b] so those are no new inovations (sorry, i just had to say that....)

tokyo is like a whirlpool of feelings to me. sometimes i really felt like falling in love with the city, but then a few hours later i just wanted to go back home immediately. the thrillng thing for me, about tokyo is, everything can happen. you can have a bunch of dates on one night and you will meet none or you can go out without a plan and you will have the best party in your live!

is this the thing in front of the new "lo-fi allstars" cd?? looks kind of cool but how is it to ride??? and how does it work??

finally i've got 2 nice days in hachimantai. sick treeruns just a little too short. oh yes and i could wach 2 japanese guys jumping over a windlip and starting an avalanche.....

if you are in freestyle riding it is worth to visit a glacier. unfortuanately glaciers use to be pretty flat and there are usually just a few slopes (don't be stupid and go any meter beside the ropes, that is really dangerous). so, just for riding isn't it worth, it gets boring after 2 days. for freestyletraining is it good, but keep in mind that the slopes usually just open untill 2 or 3 pm (after that the snow gets too slushy and the "bridges" over the glacier gaps getting week) if you anyway on holiday in europe, or america is it worth to go for some days

actually, i think it`s hard if you just compare the price! especially now, when the yen is ways weaker than last year!

as much as i know has the green plaza hotel a shutle bus. if you stay at hinobou, the owner of the pension will pick you up.

i'm a soulboarder (riding as much powder as possible otherwise just enjoying riding)

switzerland and europe is cheaper than japan! a daypass in switzerland coast between 2500 and 4500 yen, depends on the size and the popularity of the resort.
