Nat 0 Posted March 5, 2002 Share Posted March 5, 2002 ...well, I heard from my snowboader friend who will volunteer "Core X-game" in Ishiuchi. I can ask him again about skiers issue if you want...but it is quite weird not ad or info. either on website or magazines. website (http://www.x-sports.co.jp/) was avaiable before but I cannot open for some reason... I heard there are snowmobil performance but I haven't heard skiers issue yet.... But I am sure snow skiboard people will be..

mogski 0 Posted March 5, 2002 Author Share Posted March 5, 2002 Yeah, with ya on the weirdness of the lack of advertising. I found the site you mention last year and checked so many times, only to find to my disbeleif, that it was all about past events and nothign on future events. I even checked ESPN as they were one of the sponsor's last year, but nothing there either. Could this be a case of Japanese resorts wishing to shun the changes in our sport? I smell a conspiracy!
