Ski/snowboard rental gear experiences
nagpants replied to MushiMushi's question in Questions & Answers
I feel there are less of the 'by the side of the road' places than there used to be. And also, there's more high quality gear available to rent... at a price of course. And especially in the inbound boom places (Niseko, Hakuba, etc). Some of the cheaper almost retro like stuff on offer is kind of amusing. Then again > do you need the latest gear if you are a complete beginner? -
Is Nagano city a good place to stay...
nagpants replied to Freddyrick's question in Questions & Answers
Personally I'd stay in Hakuba for Hakuba and then maybe Myoko for the others. And maybe spend a day or two in Nagano at either end or in the middle. Or something like that. -
Arai - any busier during the 18/19 season?
nagpants replied to BackBack's question in Questions & Answers
They're pricing me out, that's for sure! -
I have friends in Nagoya and they mostly head north into Gifu to the skijo in Gujo. Dynaland, Takasu, Washigatake come to mind.

Do you reckon we'll get another blast of winter?
nagpants replied to Toby.Bee's question in Questions & Answers
I have been to Hakuba 6 times this season. Yesterday was easily the best of those 6 times!!! The others have ranged from very disappointing to fairly decent. -
Shiga Kogen Yokoteyama: Snowboards allowed?
nagpants replied to Kaifu's question in Questions & Answers
Okushiga Kogen was skiers only until 3 seasons ago I think. I think now that means that there are no skiers-only parts of Shiga Kogen. Correct me if I'm wrong anyone. -
I prefer 47. Reasons: I prefer that part of the mountain and spend more time on that side. Seems less busy too when I have been and I have always been able to part fairly close to base and get going quickly.

They seemed to be saying something like that on the news last night.

Now that is very clever. I would be constantly tempted to scoff sprout. -
What does this new defence law thing really mean?
