I played drums in a band in the early 90's in Perth. We played the Big Day Out in 95 with Ministry, The Cult and a heap of other bands which was cool, also played some other great gigs in Perth supporting international bands and playing at other festivals.

TV crew in Hakuba

Quote: being on National TV with exposure to 125 million people I thought Japan only had a population of approx. 130 million. So does that mean the whole population was watching late night news at 11.30pm on the same channel. -

Quote: Sunrise or anyone else who may be interested, heres a pretty good example of what they do. http://www.archive.org/details/zilla2006-03-28.flac16 Just click on any of the tracks on the upper right to stream. Is that elevator music or am I not on the right drugs. -
real bad period pain, especially if your boss is a male, he won't doubt you.

Security in Niseko

Quote: I really like the feeling that I can dump my 5 month old skis anywhere for hours and expect them to be there when I get back. It's how I think things should be and I'd like it to stay that way. That feeling will change the first time you have your gear stolen. It did for me. Like creek boy said lock = 1000 yen, skis = 50000 yen, its a no brainer really. -

Do you lock up your gear?
danc72 replied to torihada's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
Quote: Originally posted by skidaisuki: I have never heard of anyone losing stuff to thieves on the piste in Japan, nor from storage in accomodation. In short - no need to lock. That's the joy of this country. Saying in short no need to lock is not very good advice. Thats the same advice I was told just before my board got stolen, i learnt the hard way. Unless your a policeman or work within the ski industry how can you give such a generalised statement regarding on piste theft for the hundreds of resorts in Japan. -
Quote: I'm hoping to start my little lady this winter, she is nearly 2. She is keen to move around on the skis, will be fun to see how she goes on the snow, on the flat! I hope you don't ruin it forever by starting so young. Like ASB said if they are not physically and mentally ready its just too dangerous.

I never locked anything until my brand new board got stolen after 6 days in Niseko. A lock is a small cost to keep a joy board. -

Hey Toque why do you have a problem with a beginner asking a question about a term they have heard on a dvd. -
choosing your line?

Is what for real? -
choosing your line?
danc72 replied to WantToSki's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
You will find that when you hear pro's on dvd's talking about picking their line they are refering to riding backcountry or heli runs where there is no marked trail to follow so beforehand they have to 'pick their line' so they no where they are going and what obstacles are in their way. If your a newbie riding resorts then your line has been picked for you in the form of a groomed marked trail. So don't be confused, it is a term you don't need to worry about until you gain more experience and want to veer off the marked trails. -
