rach 1 Posted August 24, 2002 Share Posted August 24, 2002 ....at Naeba last season? Have you seen that?! Puts you off going forever, sounds like Shinjuku Station on steroids. http://www.skijapanguide.com/2002/features/general-60.html Link to post Share on other sites
sachiko 0 Posted August 25, 2002 Share Posted August 25, 2002 It is the biggest and busiest place there is rach. Did you not know that? Link to post Share on other sites
mort 0 Posted August 25, 2002 Share Posted August 25, 2002 I wonder if that's a world record? Anyone know? Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted August 25, 2002 Share Posted August 25, 2002 I think we'd better wait for the stats on Wada Toge before we start making extravagant conjectures about 'world records'... Link to post Share on other sites
mogski 0 Posted August 25, 2002 Share Posted August 25, 2002 Given that this place is train-day-tripper user unfriendly that is a s%$t load of cars creating massive profits on (the hellishly over priced) high way and long traffic jams! I must confess that I was one of those 2.3 mil sliders last year.... Forgive me. Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted August 25, 2002 Share Posted August 25, 2002 Good to see numbers rising after they poured all that money into that gondola thing. I've only been once years ago and don't know much about the place, but hopefully it will send a message to other places that more people will come if they can ski/board more courses with the same ticket.

velocity7 0 Posted August 27, 2002 Share Posted August 27, 2002 The place should be avoided if you ask me. Link to post Share on other sites
mort 0 Posted August 27, 2002 Share Posted August 27, 2002 Hey thanks Ocean, looks like a blast. Link to post Share on other sites
oo 1 Posted August 27, 2002 Share Posted August 27, 2002 I wonder if Wada hits the million mark Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted August 27, 2002 Share Posted August 27, 2002 There are millions of people who don't go to Wada, that's for sure... (Although with the new teleporter system coming on line this season, who knows.) Link to post Share on other sites
mogski 0 Posted August 27, 2002 Share Posted August 27, 2002 Ocean is that teleporter going to be anything like the one on Startrek? If so I want one! (Quick access to Powder days!!!!) Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted August 27, 2002 Share Posted August 27, 2002 No, it's going to be the Japanese version, the dokodemo door, sponsored by Doraemon. Unlike the Trekky transporters that cover great distances, the Wada ones can run on solar power. Even during blizzards.

oblivion 5 Posted September 6, 2002 Share Posted September 6, 2002 I know SJG will be showing the official figures, but are the official figures to be believed? I wonder. Link to post Share on other sites
MikeD 0 Posted September 6, 2002 Share Posted September 6, 2002 I can't wait in lift lines for more than 5 minutes. Are there any riders out there interested in hiking for freshies? Anybody know any sweet backcountry here in Japan? Link to post Share on other sites
