Hotaka Scott 0 Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 ^^^ Car in bumper deep pow was something I hadn't seen before - nice.

I stand corrected; definately from this century. Link to post Share on other sites
black diamond 0 Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 I had the pleasure of skiing with this guy last winter. There IS such a thing as natural talent (well, growing up on a ski resort probably helps too). All J stuff was shot in the Niseko area. BTW he will be featured in the new MSP movie IN DEEP (same Japan footage) Here's what he said about skiing in Japan. "I had fun times last season, skied some deep powder and travel all over the world, Russia, Italy, USA, Switzerland, France, Alaska but my favourite trip was the one to your place in Japan. Epic snow, lot's of different runs, good food and such a nice hospitaIity.. I would love to come back next season." Can I get a witness? Link to post Share on other sites

muikabochi 208 Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 MrSingh. Seriously, why not rather than post that just email SJF and ask them about this. They are good, friendly, kind people - they even like little animals - and often get back to people very quickly. They don't always check every post and might miss a comment on here. I know for a fact that with lots of the annoying and frankly rude stuff they sometimes put up with, they appreciate a bit of civility. As most people do, "in the real world".

Mogul1 0 Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 The Silver Season This movie is about 2 years old, I think. Spectacular opening shots - see it on a large, wide screen if you can. The movie is so so, but okay if you like skiing. Available at Tsutaya video rental, unfortunately no English subtitles. (Sorry, don't know how to embed video.) Link to post Share on other sites

gerard 6 Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Nice vid. Captures the cool trippiness of night skiing. I was never a fan until Niseko. Link to post Share on other sites

@tokyo 14 Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Sorry but what is "the Dark Side"? Link to post Share on other sites
seemore 66 Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 The Dark side is a Pink Floyd Album. But in this sense it is the mellow laid back feel of the soul whether it be skiing or boarding it is about the feeling of you and the mountain. Link to post Share on other sites
