TJ OZ 0 Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 Just finishing off a nice cup of black coffee. More than two meters has fallen over the last few days. Any one want to come over for some tutoring in snow clearing let me know. We are running classes every morning. There are a few on here who's work is pretty shabby and I think they could do with a refresher course too. No charge for the first 5 lessons if you book in for this week. Tomorrow morning we will start with the balcony. Link to post Share on other sites

Kumapix 0 Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 some snow monsters in FT's yard...or maybe they were cars? Link to post Share on other sites
Kumapix 0 Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 I rode the last lift on Skyline and ended back at the carpark at 5pm. Most of the cars were gone...and so was mine! I had that sinking feeling, thinking that my car had been stolen. WTF???? I walked around and saw this suspicious-looking Delica...or was it just my Wish buried in snow? I tried my keys and got a rush of relief as the car beeped back! took me at least 15mins to get the snow off and then another 30 to get out to the main road. Link to post Share on other sites

Alcantara 0 Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 My car was parked right at the back of 47 near the trees. I had cars parked too close to me and it took me about 90 minutes to get out safely...no shovel so had to spin the car 90 degrees punching back and forward till I could get to a spot where I could drive...almost gave up and abandoned the car. Took me a about 30 minutes to even find the car in the first place. Link to post Share on other sites

TJ OZ 0 Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Another great day on the hill with the sun coming out. Fresh tracks for all who know where to look. Green currie and a singa at the thai with Stemik finished off the day nicely. Link to post Share on other sites

neversummer 0 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Niseko has some serious snow falling at the moment. It wasn't really supposed to be like this but we will take it.. Visibility will be appalling today so I'm off to Moiwa for some tree skiing Finally got my camera ready to go but I don't expect too many photos today. Will post if I do get some though.

Domokun_72dpi 0 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Man, I would get a roof top mounted "arial" type thing with a flag on the top (jusding by the looks of these, it would need to be @ least a metre high). I really can't fathom the dypes of dumps you are getting over there. Hope it does it like that in Feb Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Got the big triangle yesterday bigline face shots! sweet! Link to post Share on other sites
neversummer 0 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Moiwa was quite nice this morning, 20cm of new snow and perfect conditions for the lines through the trees...short but sweet. Not many people there but more than usual being a Sunday. Skiers right is still closed off the hooded quad but a little traverse will get you a long way. I will upload a short vid when I have time The snow almost stopped this morning for about an hour but since 1030 it has been very heavy again...huge dry flakes and no wind at all. Despite the poor visibility, conditions would be amazing anywhere below the treeline and tomorrow should be very nice again. Will hit up Higashiyama for a few hours and see how things go and again upload anything I get that is worthwhile. Link to post Share on other sites
