Wizz 11 Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 I see Naeba have opened up a tiny man-made run and still they want 4000 yen. Seems a bit steep to me, what about opening day / early ski / "hardly worth going to just one miserable narrow run open" discount price then? Link to post Share on other sites

klingon 10 Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 That looks like fun. Link to post Share on other sites
bcoasis 0 Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 Kokudo giving a discount - you've got to be joking. Anyway the Dark Side of the Force has more serious issues at hand like tax evasion allegations and running foul of Tokyo Stock Exchange regulations with Seibu Tetsudo. Stretching the truth seems to be part of their corporate culture - 2500 people; no, a couple of my customers who were there said there would not have been 300 people.

excuse me 0 Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Hey that looks like fun. Not. Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 I did a run like that in Gifu for 4 hours on Saturday. Although some might say it's not worth it. I say it was fun and hella worth it. I don't think I'd drive all night for it but if you live close give it a go. Better to start the year on shitty snow than have to worry that you forgot how to ski on your first day out with a metre of new snow. Also good to get out and make sure all your gear is in order.

rachael 0 Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 I just wouldn't pay over that much for so little. A matter of principle. Link to post Share on other sites
marnix 0 Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 What would you do walk up? Or sit at home sulking about how steep the price is of such a flat run. Link to post Share on other sites
rachael 0 Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 I just wouldn't go. It's really simple. Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 Neither would I. If I lived there and knew someone who'd let me go for free I might though Link to post Share on other sites
ProbablyaCrazyPerson 2 Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 You'd have to be a CrazyPerson to go there and do that. Anyone go? Toque which resort was that at you went to last Saturday? Link to post Share on other sites
