SKI 15 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 They got the sushi, slow motion Tokyo and most other Japan cliches in there, but I didn't notice a Shinkansen and Fuji. Which was quite disappointing! Link to post Share on other sites
seemore 66 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I did think it was a cliched but it was a bit of stoke Did you read the review? "The YES gang head to Japan for some serious powder. JP Solberg and Mads Jonsson live it up in Tokyo before heading into the mountains for some shredding". Link to post Share on other sites
SKI 15 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Yeah. Wouldn't have known otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites
Mick Rich 78 Posted February 20, 2014 Author Share Posted February 20, 2014 Forgot I'd started this one so thought I'd update it by confirming that I've finally found my stoke!! This was the first winter in years that I haven't been checking the daily reports and reading the latest resort reviews. Yes, I was busy with other stuff but the thought had occured to me that maybe boarding didn't mean as much to me as previously. Glad to say I was wrong!! First day back on a board yesterday was a decent powder day at Furano. Legs shot by half 2 but even the groomers were a blast! More of the same this morning with a bit of sunshine thrown in for good measure. It's good to be back!! ???? Link to post Share on other sites

ippy 66 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Heres my winter stoke: I just scored (today) my next job, teaching english 25kms away from Yongpyeong. And on the fekkin beach. And for a salary i was kinda hoping for but not expecting (2.3). The plan was to go back to EPIK and score exactly that location. Now i dunno. I think im gonna turn their business into an industry just so i have a job there for the 2018 olympics. Im literally in one of the core towns! Im so happy i could puke! And now ive jinxed it! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
