SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan 178 Posted November 28, 2007 SnowJapan Admin Share Posted November 28, 2007 Well to respond to your comments Bushpig, if no-one else is going to point out that you can upload to SJ effectively supporting us and everything we do (indeed ultimately these Forums) in the process - but suggest other places instead - then perhaps it is left to me to do so....

sock_monkey 0 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 whenever I get my next pair of skis (not anytime soon) it will be something 110+. the fat bros or the DPS lotus 120 (if i fall into money) would def. be on the short list. Link to post Share on other sites
Kingofmyrrh 0 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I was offered some on bloomberg chat at work today, and I believe that Stuntcok (although I have never actually met him) was the original source, might want to send him a PM. Link to post Share on other sites

Stuntcok 0 Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 It is true, I have somehow become the regional co-ordinator for PM Gear in Japan. The good news for everyone is that we have sorted out some of the bottlenecks that were creating 12 month waiting periods so there should be bros for all! I don't know how we are going to work the order process just yet but, to start, I am getting a shipment of demos from Splat (Pat) and bundling a small group order in that could save shipping. As for the demos, I am going to try and have models in Niseko and Hakuba for people to try and maybe a pair in Tokyo to be passed around. For those that don't know Bros model skis, basically, they are all mountain/powder boards with limited camber and sidecut making them great for soft or cut up snow. The stiffness/weight ratio makes them the best performace AT boards I have ever held. For the aspiring pro, the 192 fat is a seriously burly ski. Now you can argue whether one could ever possibly find a use for such a burly ski in Hokkaido or a pow ski in Nagano Link to post Share on other sites

Fattwins 0 Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Ok this needs a heads up. Finally my mate bought into SJ and has an ad up. For bigger sizes at good prices check him out. Most of the stuff he is selling is rare in Tokyo. over 30cm boots, over 160 cm boards and etc. http://www.snowjapanforums.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=245646#Post245646 Link to post Share on other sites

Fattwins 0 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Ok but its still the best spot to get your rare boards in Japan. Could be limited text or whatever. The point is there though and he is a good guy, even if there are spelling mistakes. Link to post Share on other sites
Kumapix 0 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 i think it's a great idea , just I wouldn't buy anything from a site with spelling mistakes Link to post Share on other sites
HighlyTrainedNovaTeacher 2 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Good point. May sound silly, but it creates a bad impression. Link to post Share on other sites
kokodoko 67 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I would buy from a site with spelling mistakes if i knew the company and they were solid. We are all human and have different skill sets. Link to post Share on other sites
LiquidX 0 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 But we don't know the company and don't know they are solid.... that being the point, I believe. Bottom line - it is better not to have spelling mistakes than to have them! Link to post Share on other sites
