Since you live in Okinawa and have a house/apartment you could find somebody that wants to switch houses for a week/month that lives in Hakuba, Yuzawa or Niseko

Free accomodation and close to the slopes.

I don't think that would be possible for me to do. I live on the military base over here. I'm not sure how that would work, but definitely something to look into. Thanks for the heads up on this.

What you think of newest Metallica? I used to be into them early on, then didn't like the 90's but St Anger was a mess.

I think anything after their "Black" or self titled album is a mess. St. Anger was a complete and total waste of time and money including their own. After load and Re-load they should of hung it up and called it a good time. Starting with their black album and continuing forward it's like you could basically hear them sliding downhill. I think they have hit rock bottom. I really don't listen to them that much, but there are days it is called for.

Add to the list here........

By that do you mean "fog" up?!?!?. I have a pair of Dragon goggles that don't fog up. I use to have a pair of Smith goggles (I think) that would fog up constantly then I found the ones I have.

Thanks everyone.

 

rach- I dunno. Have no idea where that is. Time to do some more research I guess.

 

NPM- Anytime, I'm jonesin to get back on my board. It's collecting dust

 

Toque- You are correct. I think you may be one of the first people to actually figure that out (granted I know it's not that difficult). The 89 was the year of Mustang that I use to have. I use it on every board I go on. House exchange what's that? I may be interested.

 

Indosnm- Not yet. I am in the process of looking for a surfboard. I think I may get a wakeboard instead, but I really want to learn how to kitesurf though. Kiteboarding(in snow) would be a blast as well.

 

Yamakashi- I'm not sure if that's it or not. All I know is that it is about and hour and 20 minutes or so from Iwakuni.

 

Thanks again for the welcome everyone

Just wanted to say what's up to everyone. A quick background on me: I have been boaring for 2 seasons now (I'm pretty new to the game), I love it with a passion, but my wife doesn't care for it that much. I currently live on Okinawa. I have been for about 5 months. I'm already making plans to get over to mainland once or twice during the season to get some boarding in. I can't go 3 years without not boarding I'd probably have a heart attack. I've been reading and researching about Mizuho (any info anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated). I look forward to getting to know some of you. Don't be shy stop in and say hi.
