Thanks a lot for the info - sounds the best option...

Some friends are driving down from Kansai to Hakuba for the upcoming 3 day weekend. Their plan is to arrive at dawn on the Saturday and ski/board for Saturday and Sunday and drive back Monday. They have booked a little Japanese place for those two nights. I am hoping to join them from Tokyo, but am not sure of the best way to get there. I am a long legged guy, so not a big fan of the overnight bus idea, as I also tend to not sleep well on buses. Also, as it is about 4 and a half hours from my house to Hakuba (Shinkansen 216 minutes from Shinjuku???), if I leave on the Saturday mornin

Thank you all for your advice!

First of all, thanks for anyone who is able to offer advice on this... I am looking to board this year and have decided to buy everything and go for it. I have tried Victoria Sports and it seems I am a good fit for a 11.5 Burton Driver X (J=29.5cm) Q1) At the time, I didn't see any SL-9's there, but as a general rule of thumb, for Burton, if I fit a 11.5 in one model, will I fit the same in another, i.e. am I an 11.5 in SL-9 too? I am trying to make time to get back down to Jimbocho later this week to try a few more on, but I tend to not find much in my size, so may need to resort to

Wow, 190cm!?!?!? Thats a big tool!
