Never used waterproofing before... I'll just keep to the wash with mild detergent and hang until dry approach... Hand washing is a bit to time costly for me... Never been a scrubing fan... Anyway, mild detergent = what detergent? Got a recommended brand? Thanks for the tips guys... () m(_ _)m

Anything but lift congestion... thats when hyperthermia sets in.... brrrr....

Since the snows about to start... Time to let the gear wash, tumble and dry... Wondering though... How do you guys wash your stuff?.. Heard that wachine-machines aren't exactly friendly to snowboarding jackets, pants and gloves...

I'm not exactly sure where in Nagano, going with a bunch of friends... so don't exactly know the details... Any recommendations?

Unknown guy A: Avalanche!!!! Unknown guy B: Wha...? I can't hear you, my I-pod is on too loud...

I'm headed to Nagano too, around the 28th. I thought of going for a day thing before that, just try to slip one through the weekends. I usually head off to biwako valley for a one day thing, when the weather forecast says its gonna be more sun and less wind. The tracks are definitely not the best, but its the closest. Only starts from Jan though.

Cool ^^... somebody close-by... any idea where is the nearest place with snow in December?

Suita-shi... accesible through the hankyu line...
