Got back from Vancouver this past Sunday, and tomorrow (Saturday) I’m off to Sapporo! Had enough time to do the laundry and put everything back in the suitcase. Snow conditions aren’t really that good, but I’m taking the powder board up since the jib board came back from Whistler-Blackcomb a little worse for wear from all the rocks and krap – the edges feel like TV infomercial serrated knives, and there is a new core-shot amongst the field of new scratches and scrapes, not to mention the marred topsheet from when mister big dummy anglo ran me over from behind. Yesterday, Sapporo Kokusai looked as bad as Whistler, with dirt showing through the thin snowbase. There was a good dump last night, so there looks to be a new 10-15cm on the ground, with more to come over the next two days. With any luck, I’ll be out there poaching it on Monday morning!
Hopefully I’ll be able to keep you updated as my trip progresses, and I look forward to what Root and Fabio will put up here and on the gallery from the Vancouver trip.
