Gary, I never tried it in English - I thought that the special price option disappears in english...good for folks to know that.

apparently they can read the Japanese 'no bananas in the onsen' sign. (english sign says - "In the water, Bananas there are not")

Top Ten SJ Logo Gear Items 10) 3D glasses - makes the site jump off the page and makes the monkeys in the onsen look trippy 9) The SJ Anti-Global warming solar powered personal electic pocket fan 8) SJ Stoke...in case you loose your stoke... 7) The SJ eyepatch, for when you get injured or if you just want to rock that 'hard core pirate look'. 6) SJ branded condoms, becuase you never know when you might get trapped in a Gondola for 9 hours... 5) The SJ crotch patch - when you rip your pants, slap this on - and keep riding 4) The SJ Emergency Phone booth snow globe - for snow,

you can also do it on the touch screens at any most JR stations. I used to head over to Meguro, jump on the touch screen and get my discount pack plan tickets.

Believe me, we did. Actually, some of them used the snowjapan site, but not the forums. They thanked us for our hard work at putting up all that information and we gladly took credit and told them to check back often. Peraps SJ Capes would be a good way to spot SJ crew on the mountain?

It would be good to have some way to spot forum members on the mountain. Everytime we came across a forigner and asked them if they were Snow Japan forum members, they gave us a puzzled look. It would be kewl to be able to tell forum members from the random Aussie tourist at a glance....

Let me know how those boots work out for you - I'm in the market for some new boots - my shaun whites killed my big toe last season!

Looks sweet - can you snap a pic of the pack?

If snowboard/ski porn is on your list of things for Santa to stuff in your stocking this year - what are the recommended titles? I'm thinking Mack Dawg's "Picture This" is worth a watch - Shaun White, Jeremy Jones, and my fav - Jussi Oksanen.
