seemore 66 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Hi Mamabear Cheers for that I don't think my girls will cop 2nd hand gear they have already picked out new stuff at Annaconda. But board,boots,binding should be ok. I tried to click on SJForums but "The Computer Said NO" I can't enable pm but have sent email to editor hopefully that will help.

foreversnow 5 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Seemore have you tried Aldi - I know it sounds very bizzare but quite often this time of year they sell ski gear there and really cheap - Even weirder friends of my bought it and they said it was really good and they were more than happy with it??

HelperElfMissy 42 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 no Aldi in Western Australia - Snowhuntress...you think you guys are behind the rest of the world over there...try here! Link to post Share on other sites
Vossy 0 Posted August 12, 2009 Author Share Posted August 12, 2009 Perfect! Milk and bread......oh and I'll have a pair of ski pants too please! I went to the Billabong and Quicksilver factory outlets and seconds shop and scored some good deals. If you have them over in WA it's certainly worth a look. Having not snowboarded in years, what sort of money would I be looking at to buy a new snow board? How does the height/weight/board size thing work? Link to post Share on other sites
seemore 66 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Hi Guys Don't you know WA stands for Wait Awhile We haven't got many factory shops and normal surf shops don't carry ski/board gear.

Go Native 70 Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Going to have an ice skating rink as well! Those penthouses are going to be sweet. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 that would be a rink on the outside? Can't see them wasting accomodation space. Link to post Share on other sites
HelperElfMissy 42 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Excellent! Ice Skating rink is brilliant idea to keep the people amused on poorer days, or for the non-skiers. Link to post Share on other sites

stemik 14 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 i think a strip bar would really work in Niseko. Maybe not in the Vale though.... Link to post Share on other sites
Hokkaidough 4 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 No, I don't think somehow it would fit. Link to post Share on other sites
Go Native 70 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 I've looked at opening something like a soapland in Niseko but the local planning laws won't allow it. It would be an absolute goldmine! Link to post Share on other sites
stemik 14 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 i think so too....lots of western male testorone to tap into. Link to post Share on other sites
Vossy 0 Posted October 10, 2009 Author Share Posted October 10, 2009 Not long to go now. Does anyone have any info on how the height/weight/snow board size thing works??? Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 less that 2 months to go. Nervous? Link to post Share on other sites
HelperElfMissy 42 Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Blimey! And I would assume lots of rain days/snow days between now and then that might hamper building? no? Link to post Share on other sites
Thundercat 60 Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 They leave the scaffolding up until pretty much the last day. Might look a long way off but I doubt it! Link to post Share on other sites
Go Native 70 Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Was speaking to one of the project managers on the weekend. They are ahead of schedule. Most of the exterior is completed, only the balconys still to go on. The consttruction company has a lot of workers on-site currently. Link to post Share on other sites
