  1. daver it seems would be angry at the resort whatever - whatever you say the resort is most definitely wrong.
  2. I really don't know why you would tell a porky. Perhaps because it sounds like an interesting & controversial subject. I'm almost certain that there will be another side to this story that is different to yours.
  3. First up, I'd buy my parents a new house. Get myself some property. Buy myself a few things that I wanted. Invest/save the vast majority of it.
  4. Quote: have you been off-piste there SKI? Once, with the ski patrol. I was invited by a friend of a friend they were doing some work out there. It was very interesting. There's actually a lot of great runs on the actual resort at Okushiga/Yakebitai and not that many ropes around actually.
  5. Me too. It is so easy to use the "grey" argument as a justification for actions.
  6. Okushiga / Yakebitaiyama is definitely better than Yokoteyama in my opinion.
  7. Quote: Seeing a snowboarder duck a rope and heading into illegal powder Oh how so witty. When I saw Ocean11 post here, if I'd have thought anything it would probably be that the post would either some smart 'witty' comment or a miserable moan about something.
  8. No it's not the food. They were talking on the news today that the reason the Japanese athletes have not done well is because foreigners are taller. So now you know.
  9. Yes, haha. The ones you enjoy are short with lots of speeches, the ones you don't want are longer. It always seems to happen like that.
  10. If you are a skier, you really want to give Shiga Kogen a go.
  11. Quote: ski toque will admit to being selfish he doesnt care about that That is quite obvious. Very sad.

Quote: What else is the problem? I don't know. I don't know what goes on at the resort. It seems fairly obvious that this problem is causing them some grief though. Perhaps they might decide to become more strict with their conditional zones. They might become stricter in general. Perhaps they might decide to stop being as open to foreign guests as they now are.

  13. So you think it's just a case of patrol 'doing their job', taking a pass off you, and that's it. All finished? Naive as well I see.

  15. I'm sorry to hear about the problems, I'm sure it is only a few. Quote: has been intentionally ignored & even mocked
  16. That was a lot of fun to watch, I admit. The downhill was of course too.
  17. I did not know those things. All I knew was it gets excellent snow Do you like it there Fattwins? Can't recall you talking about it.
  18. Maiko, Ishiuchi. Good weekend, really good snow, good timing.
  19. I think quite true..... however, the region gets really top notch snow a lot of the time, often excellent quality that would for example put places in Yuzawa to shame.
  20. Did he used to speak like he was almost whispering all the time? I'm sure its a recent thing. That kind of talking really annoys me.
  21. Yes that is right - the majority of SK is open to snowboarders. Let's not misinformation!
