Kissmark Bindings on a Burton Board?
X101 replied to Victor's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
I ride Burton Missions. They are very good bindings. They also have an amazing guarentee, i broke a base plate in Tignes last year and just rocked up to the local Burton dealer and the replaced it free of charge. Nice -
I hear it is possible to board down from the top. I do not have much information as i am fairly new in Japan. I know it has been done. I would love to try it, does anybody have any information on how, when etc? Or does any fancy trying it with me?

The worst snow ever
X101 replied to grungy-gonads's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
I learnt to ski in Bulgaria in 1986.( still commie then ) The slope was around 100m loading with a very slight gradient. I was hooked! Everything since has been a party! -
Apparently Utsunomiya is capital of Tochigi prefecture. It is not a particularly spiritual place. Thanks for the hints of were the good snow lies. It seems i can get to the snow easily, I have no car but i will check out where i can get with train and bus. I have a dead easy job with loads of time to make travel arrangements . I have been pretty impressed with Japanese snow so far. Let's hope it holds up for a few more weeeks!
