Hi there...
I plan to back to Japan for snowboarding this winter and start to think about gear...
Rental gear service in Japan is pretty awful (well opinion based on my experience) and I do not mind to buy new board in japan and bring back to Europe. (anyway, it's not easy for me to find my size in here, am asian size!!)
But Airline might cause of extra cost and might be a bit hassle at check in desk of Narita.
Which U would recommend me....
(a) Be patient about bad rental condition for a 4 days on the snow (but at least can have nice onsen experience again in Japan)
