Quote:Got a new jacket yesterday and I have 7 pockets inside the jacket
- keitai pocket
- Ipod pocket (large enough for my new mp4 recorder)
- mesh pocket
- goggle pocket
- special helmet liner pocket!!!
- wallet pocket
- pocket for general use
- lift pass pocket (not a real pocket but has a zip) -
I went to 3 different shops over the weekend and each one told me different things about how long my ski poles should be - when holding them the lower part of my arms should be level / slightly up / slightly down.
I'm interested to know what skiers on here think and how big their ski poles are compared to body.
Cheers

Too bad DumbStick. Lets hope it doesn't affect you much. I'm all ready to go, perhaps 2-3kg over what I would want to be but... I'm merry.

I have some x socks as well and have been really pleased with them. Never tried 5 toe socks.

Definitely. Some folk are going to pay for that. I suppose it will let you experience "single lifts"

You're not wanting to steal someones work are you?
It depends on the file I think. Some let you do it, others don't - you will see a little "sentaku" edit icon in the top menu bar

My Japanese friend calls some of those "energy drinks", in particular the one that has a label that looks suspiciously like a penis, "knob drink".

But what about all those lovely new songs as well as the golden oldies?
I avoid karaoke at all costs, especially at a traditional Japanese style karaoke snack place.

I know the feeling I'm not keen myself and always glad to be up there, even more glad to be down on the ground.

I too am a fan of boots.
Japan + boots go so well together.

Obon has to be the worst time of the year. It is hot, sticky, humid, places are busy, public transport is unbearable.
No thank you.

By the way, when he said that what was he meaning - the environment and the way things look or more generally?

Theres also a huge ipod thread on these here forums if you do a search on the word.

Until now I have been snowboarding, but this season I've decided to buy a ski set and start skiing. I've gone and kitted myself up (well almost) and ready to give it a go.
It looks fun and it'll be great to be able to do both. Wish me luck.
