IM 0 Posted January 16, 2003 Share Posted January 16, 2003 Simply put, you ride on a cat(apillers). You know snow groomer with the cabin on its back. They will take you to a spot in the back country, then you ride the verticals. Cat ski is less dependent on foul weather than heli(coptor) skiing. Like heli sking, it is not very popular in Japan, but there are many operators in North America and Europe. I recall Iwaki san, and Niseko Wise used to operate cats. Simple enough?

jared 0 Posted January 16, 2003 Share Posted January 16, 2003 its what good skiing is all about - when you ski you shouldent do dog turns which go wooof wooof wooof - you should try and carve more and link your turns and go meeew meeew meew. I dont know how that works in japan where dogs make a wan wan sound and I dont know j onamatapea for cats. Link to post Share on other sites
