八甲田山の12-13年シーズンスタート!
今日は昼くらいのゴントラに乗って、今シーズンの初滑りでした。
山頂の駅は相変わらずの冷蔵庫で、天気も曇り空でしたが、ちょっと降りると素晴らしい景色。お久しぶり(^^)/
二回目ゴントラで上がるとなんと!
小さく見える青森市まで八甲田山の足元が広がる。
三回滑って満足して帰りました。
P.S. 滑る気持ちが溢れて、手袋を下の駅に忘れました。手が冷たかったと思うけど、楽しかった!
やっぱり八甲田山大好きだ~ヽ(^0^)ノ!

Iwaki on April 19th 2009
The weather was GREAT!
Left the city at 7 a.m. and parked the cars at the bottom of the Yayoi course at 9:30. After all the gear and accesories were prepared we left towards the bus stop (15 minutes walk). The bus schedule was different from the one we knew; 1 hour and a half to wait for the 11 o`clock bus ?!?
The lady that owns the shop located near the bus stop, was so kind to tell us that a taxi can pick us up and take us to Iwaki Skyline for the same price, and so we did. The 50 minutes hike, up to 1500m was hard enough, but it was worthwhile. The clear sky gave us the chance to see the 360 degrees panaorama over the Tohoku area.
There were 3 degrees on top but because the wind was almost absent it felt warmer. After we had lunch( some of us had HOT noodles- prepared guys), we packed and prepared for the long ride. It was hard to leave the beautiful view from that altitude( an airplane was flying under).
The long ride on the Yayoi Course slope was more than we were aspecting and went down slowly enjoying every bit of it.
The traverse we had to take down the mountain put our legs to work, but we had to do that in order to avoid falling into the river that goes underneath the snow on the valley. Compared to other years, the snow melted faster- we took a 15 minutes walk throw the forest to arrive at the cars.
To finish the day properly, Dake Onsen was the next stop for a hot spring.

Obama in Japan!
S- au vandut peste 400.000 de exemplare in care sunt explicate si traduse replicile lui Obama. Carti destinate invatarii limbii engleze au invadat piata din Japonia si din cate am observat si pe cea din Coreea.
Nu sunt implicat in politica si istoria nu este unul din punctele mele forte; ce pot spune despre Obama este faptul ca ii apreciez carisma.
Sper ca "gripa" ce a afectat America sa se imbunatateasca.
Pana atunci " Yes, we can!"

Snow Monsters
Am fost norocosi sa ajungem in varful muntelui si sa avem parte de o zi asa cum rareori am intalnit pe Hakkoda. Cer senin, fara vant si zapada cum trebuie. Am urcat in telecabina pana ne- au spus ca s- a oprit pentru ziua respectiva.
Am urcat de 7 ori si am reusit sa megem pe cateva din cele mai bune rute de pe munte. Am adunat cateva poze si 2 filme pe care le- am pus in graba impreuna.

Din casa iarna pare atat de rece, insa aici simti ca te poti bucura de Ea.

Healthy colors
This morning I was prepared to go up the mountain, but... Yesterday evening after meeting with some of my friends downtown, I checked my temperature and for my surprise I was having 38 degrees. Nothing to worry about. Ate some Lamen and went to bed. In the morning the fever was 38.3 and I decided to pay the doctor a visit since I won`t be going up the mountain. They pushed this long and thin stick through my nose.
I was diagnosed with Influenza A and I was asked to choose between Tamiflu and normal antiviral medicine. I will be staying in the house, in the same room for a few days; i have a few days just for myself.
So, wash your hands, gargle when coming home and wear a mask if needed. The photo was taken last week on Hakkoda during the 2 hours of clear sky.
I wish I can do this someday- Watch on Youtube!

Happy New Year!
Mr. Hiroyuki, the owner of Eyes Cafe and Little Juice Bar from Sapporo was so kind to show us Rusutu and show us where the real powder is hidding. We visited his shop situated inside Sapporo's station in Paseo. I had the best fresh juice ever.
It`s been a busy end of 2008 and beginning of 2009.
December was the events month for me and the end of the year and beginning of 2009 was dedicated to snowboard and family. Around New Years Eve I went to Hokkaido and snowboarded at Rusutu, Kiroro, Teine and Asari.
The video below was made on the top of Rusutu in the near forest where powder is everywhere.
Let's continue learning how to snowboard. How to stop and curve are one of the most important "must know" for me. Enjoy!

八甲田シーズンOPEN
56cmの積雪で朝から12時ぐらいまでに滑りました。着いたときは晴れてったんだけど、滑ってる間に雪が降り出しました。11時ぐらいに風と雪が強くなって、八甲田の頂上のようなな天気でした。ゲレンデで一回だけ滑って、9回ぐらいはリフトのずっと右側のパウダーを楽しみました。
一年はあというまだね。
今日からスノーボードのレッスンをここに乗せます。それでは、今日のスノーボードレッスンはこちらです-ターン:

Snowboard Hands- Free Camera
Bineinteles ca poate fii folosita si pentru alte sporturi, insa cand am vazut- o mi- am si inchipuit- o legata de casca in timp ce arunc zapada in drepata si in stanga in coborare. Destul de scumpa, in jur de $700, insa rezistenta la apa si soc, 30 fps, ecran LCD, rezolutie mare si atasabila mai peste tot. Telecomanda iti lasa mainile libere insa din cate am inteles, pentru ca body- ul camerei va fii undeva in rucsac, sunetul care declanseaza sau opreste filmarea nu poate fii uneori auzit. Banuiesc ca nu ar fii o problema :)

Burton Supermodel `72
Burton Supermodel `72 Originally uploaded by Mihai Florin Apostu Oota
For almost 3 years I`ve been using the board that made me love powder and Hakkoda. Lately I`ve been checking the internet for THE powder snowboards and looked at several boards like: T. Rice Banana Hammock , Burton Supermodel, Burton Fish , Gentem and a few others. I was about to buy the Banana Hammock to enjoy the powder 100%- but then I thought what will I do on the slopes.
Yesterday, the weather in Aomori changed and today was really cold. It won` t be long until the snow will be here. :) Where will you snowboard this year?

07-08 Snowboarding season opened
Yeap! 07/08 snowboard season started and yesterday I met my friends after a long break. I woke up at 7 and at 8:45 we were on the first gondola to go uphill. At first we were only 5 but after 2 runs, 10 members of our group gathered.


The snow was a little hard because it didn` t snow recently but it was so much fun. I missed my snowboard buddies and the snow. I had to wait for one year but it worth the effort.
This happened yesterday:
Thank you モスSan for the clips!
This morning it started to snow and after I wake up, at 12:00 o` clock I went to Hakkouda again. There were about 10cm of new snow at the bottom of the hill and on the slopes there were about 30 cm. It was great! can` t explain the pleasure of hearing the sound of powder under my board: SSSSssssssssSSSSSSSSsssssssss
