Will Lee 0 Posted March 13, 2003 Share Posted March 13, 2003 I had a pretty crappy day at Aizu Kogen Takatsue last Sun. A number of runs turned rather icy early(with ice cubes following you as you come down the hill)and the fact I didn`t sleep a wink the night before did me in. I called it a day at 12:30...must be a new low for me! Link to post Share on other sites

Will Lee 0 Posted March 13, 2003 Share Posted March 13, 2003 Okay, I couldn`t have complained about the weather(sunny, no fog)but the snow was only so-so in the morning with some leftover pow on the sides. The few steeper runs I liked quickly turned icy and slightly bumpy(for my liking anyway). I find the place a bit on the boring side. I thought most of the runs were too short except for maybe the top area and many of the areas marked intermediate were actually quite flat. Yes, that top lift was in operation but I was not allowed to go up there(my name is SNOBOYaro). Their board park was not well put together...everything was cramped and that pipe they had was a joke. I was wondering where would someone do a tree run at Takatsue? The trees looked too tight to be ripping through them but then again it may just mean that I suck. I do hope the snow condition will turn out better when you make your way up there next week. Link to post Share on other sites
