woywoy 0 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Looks pretty good Kuma. I would be a bit wary of taking it up without a backpack like that ... Probably the reason why I am not going to take it up the hill in a worry. That, and the fact that I prefer to be deep in the pow rather that waiting down the hill for my mates to eat it up in front of my eyes! Link to post Share on other sites
Kumapix 0 Posted February 6, 2006 Author Share Posted February 6, 2006 http://www.feedthehabit.com/gear_reviews/burton_zoom_pack.html this is a review of the zoom pack i guess you can fit a shovel & probe on the back Link to post Share on other sites
woywoy 0 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Nice one Kuma. I love how 129USD converts to 20000JPY here! What a joke. Link to post Share on other sites
Kumapix 0 Posted February 6, 2006 Author Share Posted February 6, 2006 i ordered it from backcountry.com and had it sent to my brother in the states who gave it to me when I met him at christmas. this was 2 years ago though. The new pack has heater pockets but I've haven't seen it. If you look at 1man for a regular backpack, then 2man is fair. It will cost you that much in shipping anyways Link to post Share on other sites

Yuki's Passion 1 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 shes gonna head to Geihoku for boarding when she could be in Nagano? Say Hi mate! Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 hehe, yeah mate, well I was going anyway with Snot Boy and his crew, and she seemed keen to come, so I aint gonna argue with that! Link to post Share on other sites
woywoy 0 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Nice photos Bushy. It is funny ... we seem to have some really similar photos of the autumn leaves, as well as that squirrel in London? I have also got a few kite shots (not on Flickr) that are similar to yours (not nearly as close up though!) Good work. Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Thanks mate. Yeah, I had the same thought when I looked at yours! Get a big zoom mate! That's all I can say. BTW, I lied when I said I didn't have any accessories. I have a few filters that I use sometimes. Particularly when taking pics of the autumn colours I use a PL filter.

Fattwins 0 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Dude why do you guys teach the kids on saturday. Nothing like growing up and not knowing your parents Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Don't get me started mate! This bloody school has it's head up it's arse! Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Well my kids arent going to school on prime outdoor days Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 I wish more J-parents thought like that. Then maybe the school would get the idea. Link to post Share on other sites
Yuki's Passion 1 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 right, like the parents want them at home anyways. A vast majority of kids spend at least a few nights at juku's during the weekend and on the weekends too. How bad is the education system when its almost a necessity that they go to juku in order to pass the exams? Lets bad education! Dont want my kids going to school on the weekends either. Thats BS.

bushpig 0 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 jukus are the biggest joke in this country. You're right CB, if the schools actually taught properly then jukus shouldn't be necessary. Although part of the blame for that has to be with the universities ridiculous entrance exams. How dumb is it when a kid is sleeping or mucking around in class because juku is where he learns what he needs for getting into uni!! Link to post Share on other sites
