  1. Ocean Im so happy you remembered. Yes they are targeting (cortina) familes now. 2 years ago they had 3 massive jumps in a row, rails and a members program for sking the trees. There has been no real news as to why they stopped the program, other than they are tring to get families. I would hope they figure out that by opening those trees it wont effect families at all. Now to answer the question of resorts. First you need to figure out what customers you want. Arai blew it on this and has now closed 1/3 of its hotel spa. They advertise as a powder resort but that hotel costs a fortune. Po
  2. How fast are you drive to nagano. I go 120 and dont stop and still takes at least 3 and a bit from nagoaya
  3. Takasu shiratori area. about 90mins by car if the traffic isnt bad. you can head to hakuba in 3 to 4hours. bus trips are easy to find. PS too much what do you want
  4. That good rach that road sucks but its getting better anyone know if they finished anymore of it here is the Dyna pics from their webcam web page
  5. lower ten the hakuba resorts and pretty old also its good for wide open sking. they alos build some nice quater pipes.
  6. Yeah but the size spreads the people out. know when to eat lunch and when to start.
  7. You five star freak wonder how you got those eh. I was wondering that too but it looks like Dynalands web site is a bit under construction.
  8. Man you people. How many people here would'nt ride with a bud just because they skied or rode a board. If so you are missing the point. The point is so pure and so simple, enjoy the mountain and its pleasures. I for one like to ski with people who can push me to be better, in a lot of cases those people ride. When Im sking across the flats (ie Cortina) and I see a boarder struggling then I tow them, why because I want them to enjoy the mountains, and maybe make someones day better. I belive any resort that doesnt allow boarding or in the future sking is missing the point.
  9. The full floating sensation, when it happens right you just feel this sense of not being attached to earth. There is no drug that can come close to the feeling.
  10. There are some good parties around new years and if you ask around you can find where they are. Like to ski Happo top to bottom end of the last day great leg burner. Great way to det the season rolling.
  11. Those in kansai nagoya areas I go to Nagano or gifu every monday and sunday driving.
  12. But Naeba is too crowded during that time. I would rather ski at a big mountain where the crrowds are spread out.
  13. Moguls are made by everyone not just skiers. whether they are left to get ig is another thing. rider traffic down the mountain creates little mounds of snow that build into turning ruts or moguls. Science
  14. Hey we will be up at Hakuba from the 27th truogh to the 31 barok if you want to join for the day. Happo Cortina or 47 depending on snow and crowds. PS I got the line on free parking for happo do you want it.
  15. Talk to the guy/gal in the shop you dont have to buy 165s you can go a bit longer if you want to. If you get better than you might want new gear. The new equip is aesy to learn on nowadays. Do a little looking around.
  16. A name is name change it or not it wont stop me from going
  17. Size is shorter but the skis are fatter and this makes the difference. Most powder skis are no longer than 190 nowadays. Do a little research via the web.
