Oyuki kigan 0 Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 Binding=bindingu (pronounced beendeengu) Ski boots=sukii buutsu (sukee bootsu) snowboard boots=sunobodo buutsu (sunohbohdoh bootsu) leash=sunobodo no suberi dome (... no subayree dohmay) stomp pad= dekku matto (i think) and lift is rifuto (reefutoh) Link to post Share on other sites

Ocean11 0 Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 Leash is 'reesh' in't it? Recently Japanese are learning to say 'baindingu' instead of 'bin - dingu'. Link to post Share on other sites

tsondaboy 0 Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 You could also use "abunai" = ahbuunee that means dangerous or watch out, depending on the occasion. You will need it for the people that just sit in the middle of the slope at the exact point they fell 30 minutes ago! Really common view here in Japan. Link to post Share on other sites
nori-chan 0 Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Be careful of many abunai people! Link to post Share on other sites
