george 0 Posted October 2, 2001 Share Posted October 2, 2001 sure. winter still seems a bit far away, but I would like to hook up with some other people on here. see you in winter...... Link to post Share on other sites
Kuma 0 Posted October 22, 2001 Share Posted October 22, 2001 Same thing here; been in Tokyo just a couple of months but intend to have a good time in the slopes this winter - all I need is some nice people to ride with.. I'm a Finnish guy, been boarding for several years, enjoy freeriding the most. Let's see if Japan can beat BC, Canada; that's where I started my season last year before I had to return home...

Seando1 0 Posted October 24, 2001 Share Posted October 24, 2001 Hi Belle, This winter I will be doing a lot of trips between Tokyo and Hakuba, in January and February, by car. I'm looking for someone to share the expenses. I'll give you more specific dates later if your interested.

Guest Posted October 27, 2001 Share Posted October 27, 2001 Hi belle Count me in too - looks like finding some new buddies this season to ride the board with. I had enough of just going with my japanese friends last season. But its all still nearly 2 months off. Link to post Share on other sites
Saluki 0 Posted October 31, 2001 Share Posted October 31, 2001 Hey fellas, I live in Tokyo too and would love to meet up with some of you guys and go from Tokyo to anywhere for some boarding this winter. Look me up when the snow starts falling. Link to post Share on other sites

Gavhep 0 Posted November 16, 2001 Share Posted November 16, 2001 I also live in Tokyo and am intrested in making snowboarding friends. Howabout we try meeting for a few beers at the beginning of december. I'm going to post this agin as a new topic. Gavin Link to post Share on other sites
SwingingSimon 0 Posted November 17, 2001 Share Posted November 17, 2001 Wazoo ! I'm gagging to glide the slopes in Nihon. Have wheels and room for san/yon nin in the back - looking to exit Tokyo hard on a Friday night, double-day riding, then grind back on a Sunday eve. Visitors through to New Year prevent immediate action, but definitely thereafter. Lining up for a pint with a few peers sounds like a good idea. Gav/Belle, send us a mail when you've got a place to go - an irish place in Shinjuku would suit me fine on a Wednesday night - how about next week ? Link to post Share on other sites
