mrjamie 0 Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 well then what better opportunity to work on my ability at speeding through tight trees with a wide and long board ?(*^ ·^)??? time to buy a helmet. Link to post Share on other sites
SerreChe 2 Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Given nuejam's frame & weight, what some may consider as a longboard may be actually a nice all around board for him. Some people actually put plates on these puppies and carve with them. Niseko should have enough fluffy pow for a longboard. If you intend to spend most of your time in tight trees then you may want to go a bit shorter. But Kuma is also right that it depends on how tight the trees as well as your ability. If you are not much of a tree rider, then a helmut may be a good idea, although I do not want to revive the helmut thread here... :-) Link to post Share on other sites
Kumapix 0 Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 i don't think nuejam's given his frame & weight. that was another guy. anyways, since he's set on getting a rad air then all the power to him. Nuejam, hopefully you'll post a report after you've ridden the niseko pow Link to post Share on other sites

tsondaboy 0 Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 I got a new digi-camera. The new Olympus μ 830 series. ___________________________ this color ____________ Nothing fancy put it should definitely take better picks than my old one. Link to post Share on other sites
SerreChe 2 Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Excellent, looking forward to some jaw-dropping pics from you this season Tsonda! Thinking to upgrade mine as well. Wondering whether to go 8x zoom (non-digital zoom) with 8mgpix, or 4x zoom w/ 12 mgpix... Link to post Share on other sites
tsondaboy 0 Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 I got this one because it has 5x zoom (8 Mpix). Olympus makes an other model the μ 1200 with 12 Mpix but only 3x zoom. I though that it would be better to have some more zoom, since most of the snow picks are taken from some distance. Maybe you should try asking for more opinions in the snow photography thread.
