timcraig 0 Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Last years PE's are cool. I went to Wangel in Tokyo to get a cheap pair, but I think you guys bought out the last few. They still have a stack of 159cm though for the princely sum of 25,000 yen!!! I wish I was only 4 feet tall and then I'd buy them! Link to post Share on other sites

dizzy 0 Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 c'mon; was it really worth partying the night B4 or sleeping in to miss out on the goods? geesh. but then again i can't talk, i've overslept B4. real touring starts in spring. i just better have my breakfast, 'cause i'm not going riding unless i'm fool. i mean full.

Kumapix 0 Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 ummm, i didn't sleep in. I drove up from Toyama that day. I was late because I took a lot of time setting up my bc gear and switching everything from the bc bag to the camera bag etc. Anyways, big thanks to EBC for showing me a part of Happo I never knew about and will surely be good when there's more snow.

eskimobasecamp 0 Posted January 24, 2007 Author Share Posted January 24, 2007 finally boys.... finally, instead of being the scapegoat i get a thank u - for showing you lift accessed pow, which will be fun to lap once it snows more, and is a wicked kicker spot too. my plans were nothing to do with FT, and i was all ready to hit that after one warm up run on the resort. anyway, it was a bushwackin adventure towards the bottom, still some nice open parts and one little chute up at the top that dropped off nicely. better than resort by miles, but will go hiking next time. i have to buy some skins, it won't take much hiking to get something nicer and longer. or i could just boot pack it, but that would be pretty gay since i've got fritshi freerides nailed into my boards. SKI PORN REPORT just watched TGR's anomoly.... sick sick big mountain lines, but not as good as the tangerine dream, and muzik is nothing special either. prefer matchstick productions PUSH, which i bought last week - the norway section with ingrid backstrom, rory bushfield and hjorleifson is stunning... also the mcconkey pontoon escapade is quite pleasing too, as is ingrid backstrom's own section, that chick rips. like the photography in the simon dumont pipe segment. eric pollard sucked ass, he can ski powder switch and that's about all he does, rubbish, total rubbish...... but good tunes by death cab on that section (and the sexy stoke of eric himself with all his smiley poses) redeem it slightly.

Fattwins 0 Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Just remember who showed all you clowns the bushy areas and etc. That area is not as good as the piste though not this season anyways. Push was a bit weird I dont know if i like it yet at all. Link to post Share on other sites

eskimobasecamp 0 Posted January 24, 2007 Author Share Posted January 24, 2007 i liked PUSH better than ANOMOLY - more fluid longer segments. Link to post Share on other sites

Glad you agree EBC Push rules Erik Pollard's segment sucks. I know he can ski way better than that. Looked like an add for him ski Hjorleifson is an amazing skier to watch I love watching Ingrid as well but skip over Sarah Burke Nice "Toque" entrance shots Link to post Share on other sites

Fattwins 0 Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 I havent been able to sit through push yet it just doesnt flow for me with good tunes etc. Pollard had some moments but the stupid switch in mellow terrain crap doesnt make me want to watch it. Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Dude besides Pollard's sedment the video is really good How can you not like all the Whistler pillow lines Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 i hate the fronting and other crap in the video. I was made for kids, not for me really. I didnt say that I didnt like it I said that it didnt flow for me. EBC I dont think the tbush country will be skiable this season. Link to post Share on other sites

daver 0 Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 i agree with fattwins on the PUSH issue. just didn't do it for me. yes there were some great segments, eric hjorleifson's was great to see (canmore alberta local) as was ingrid's, and shane is always fun to watch no matter what he is doing, even as saucer boy, but pollard sucked ass. and the japan segment was a real downer. i mean, most snow in the world last year and all they can film is a back country kicker? and then to splice it in with a dumb skiercross session in china just added insult to injury. on the other issue, EBC and crew, good to see you had fun. it has been harder to do this year. fattwins, how big was the fish?
