when you see bears tear your friends limb-from-limb, you will vote for the bears, oh yes, you will vote for the bears.

I hate the freakin' bears, they are my nemesis, my rivals, they have taken out 6 of my friends at Niseko this year alone. And I am getting pretty tired of riding one footed, trying to get away from the bears who have camped out right at the top of the chairlift. * * * Oh how I hate those miserable bears

Bwaaah hah hah hah hah haaaa. . . I'm back, and for goshsakes there are record numbers of bears this year . . . have yah seen 'em ?

Why do you bother posting that then?

hello taliskier. What do you know then?

ba-ka

anyone seen any grizzlys lately?

definitely grizzlys. they're everywhere.

yep bears. . . far more relevant to skiing and snowboarding than this crap-ola. . . i think you'd appreciate that what i'm saying is true if everytime you hit the backcountry you were chased by a gang of angry grizzlies. and I'm not laying out rules, it's not my place to do so, allz i'm saying is that this is a decent message board as far as message boards go, and if someone wants to cry about eikawa-related mumbo-jumbo, there are plenty of crybaby websites dedicated to such jibber-jabber.

come on, your bitching about japanese people speaking to you ? ? this is a joke right ? this kind of post has no place on a Ski and Snowboard website. Go post this kinda crap on letsjapan.org, or gaijinpot.com or one of the other websites for whiners. I suppose you speak perfect Japanese, and no Japanese people find you irritating when you "insist" on speaking to them. If this really the kind of thing that makes you upset, just pretend you only speak Spanish or German or Sweedish or whatever. You are really not smart enough to figure this kinda thing out on your own ?

not a bear. we prefer bears.

Some hakuba bears on their day off.

Summat to do with bears

Are they bears?

Which resort houses the most grizzlys?

Any grizzlys up there?

Those grizzlys are a pain.

In my hometown, the polar bears have learned how to knock on doors from watching people. So we are all very afraid of the bears. Many people have taken to bringing a gun to answer the door. It is the worst luck.

Las Lenas is dope, but from what I hear it's kinda hit-or miss. That Marte Chair climbs 3000 ft (insane) , and there is endless terrain to be got, but i've heard they shut it down in harsh weather conditions (which happes quite often on a mountain that high) From what I've heard, you have to spend 2 weeks in order to get the real goods, camel ? ?

Spill it girl, spill it . . .

If I wanted to fix the Japanese economy, First thing I would do is enact legislation ending the stranglehold the top 3 or 4 banks have on the industry - the Japanese banks are crooked and unreliable. Also encourage foreign banks to set up shop, foreign banks with good reputations. Second thing I would do would be do get someone with a) integrity, and a spine to manage the Japanese banking system on the government level, someone like Japan's answer to Alan Greenspan. Third thing I would do is streamline liscencing and beurocracy, and set up Federal loan

. . . lousy roadhog wombats . . .

yep. . . they got two of my friends yesterday at niseko. mauled em, ate most of the bodies, and then rode down the hill on their snowboards and hit big air off every kicker. grrr. . .

yeah, miteyak my bad, brown bears and grizzlies are the same. and yep Ocean, definately a law of nature.

oh don't even get me started on the grizzlies. . . . they'll maul you relentlessly, then take your snowboard and go twice as big as you were going before your untimely demise. but for real, some good suggestions are wear bear bells (just a collar type band with jingle bells tied on) around your arm or leg or make alot of noise. don't carry unsealed food with you. and if you see a bear, back away slowly, no sudden movements. and if a bear charges, play dead. the bear will sniff you and paw at you, but it won't eat you. and grizzlies are the most dangerou
