OFFICIAL SNOWTHREAD

Are you 6'4"??

alisterio I just booked flights to jetstar return from tokyo to sapporo from the 14th to the 25th so I will just miss you. Sorry man

Braddox if your keen to go for a ride together let me know.

Thanks for the info on the sim card, I definitely would have gone into that assuming you could pick up a cheap one from 7-11.

How much powder actually is there. Enough for you to ride it all day every day or does most of it get tracked pretty early?

fucking pumped!

Just like anywhere you get your good days and you get your bad days. The most accesible areas can get tracked out pretty quick but when it is on, it is on. I've been there days where the on-piste is like a back country run and have ridden knee deep freshies during night skiing (on piste of course). The first time I went it snowed the whole 7 days I was there and we were getting 30 -40cm every night. The last time (2 years ago) I got there late on the most epic day of the season then it didn't snow for nearly 3 days. That sucked because it is a kinda boring mountain when it isn't pow.

Any one heading to the hakuba area from the 12-21 of feb. Making my third trip back there. Cant wait, will be good to catch up with some skate based crew.

ill be there on the 12th and 13th

Our first day is the 13th on the mountain. Hit me up on Facebook if you are keen to shred. Bobby Blinco.

For anyone who can give me some reassurance with what I was asking earlier about my Capita 156.... My buddy has lent me an 09 Burton Supermodel 163.

What am I gonna be better with?

leave in two days im so pumped

You will get more enjoyment out of th '63 in powder but it may be a bit of a pig in the park.

I would not recommend going to Nseko to ride park.

riding Vancouver's hills right now. im down for having downtown and being able to skate and ride at night underlights. so easy. good parks and it can get sick on a pow day.

a few flicks up.

Got a job as a lifty at buller for 2013 season, if there is any buller heads that enjoy binge drinking and boarding hit us up!

amazing style... its like a not burnout antwaun on a snowboard, arms never leave his side

biitners rad its a shame he just got dropped off dc. you should watch anto chamberlands part from that same series

The media team dc hires for their snow team always produce amazing shit. Biitner is so underrated its a joke... look at 0:25 on the indy 7 and how fucking 100% perfect it is

yo cornholio who are you? i live down in torquay and work at the dc store.

hey scotty, whats the deal with the mini in the store, can anyone have a roll on it?

yeah man just come in and sign a waiver

yo scotty, just a local skater/boarder from torquay.. probably seen me around over summer but ive moved to geelong recently... ill introduce myself if i come in to dc soon to see andy or something

yo im not much of a snow guy .. but whats the best way to get a job for a snow season? coz i wouldnt mind doing it.

Depends on what kind of work you're looking for snap, most aus mountains are recruiting for the 2013 season right now and usually interview during march..

Had such a great time in Japan. 20-40cms everyday in Niseko.
Had chest deep runs in Hakuba. People as a whole were outstanding.
Made a trailer.

I'm in Big White, Canada doing the season here at the moment. I just rocked up to the mountain with some resume's and picked up a job in housekeeping heaps quick. Sounds kinda shit but it's not really bad at all. And everybody I met who was in the same boat as me managed to line up jobs quickly. I don't know how this compares to back home, but I'm told Hotham has a fair bit of work available. My best advice is not to worry too much, if you're serious about doing the season then you'll find something

this is boardin' done right.
