This very informative review was marred by unnecessary vulgarity. Frequent use of f-bombs was off-putting.

10/10 content, as always. Japan has been at the top of my bucket list for a while now and this year's very rough Whistler winter season has me thinking of finally going for it. Hoping to do a trip with both my dad and my son eventually. My pops did get out there once but got super unlucky and somehow picked a week with very little snowfall. Tree skiing with endless powder sounds good to me!

A fellow snowboarder here, he is really the YT goat of showing different resorts and how he rides them. Very informative and good information, due to him i m planning to visit ost tyrol hopefully this year and japan.

@DanielMasse-jf5dg 2 месяца назад

For sure you are unique! Nonetheless, always so accurate and what a great overall judgement of reality. (Specially your take on the prices between USA-Canada-Europe etc). Been to most of your places of reference and you have it wright. Love your humour or is it humor ? Great job. thanks

@ilipika4105 Месяц назад

Very impartial and resourceful information. I have been skiing in Japan in every season, had been to Europe a few times in recent years, and only 1-2 times in N. America and New Zealand. I shared almost exactly the same opinions as you. In fact if self drive, there are considerable ski resorts of small size in Japan for one-day skiing that are very enjoyable as well.

@christianwestling2019 2 месяца назад

@gatesurfer 2 месяца назад

I skied Hokkaido way back in the 1980s. It was lovely. The only thing was that they had loud music blaring from loudspeakers EVERYWHERE. You couldn’t get away from it to enjoy the lovely landscape in silence, or the soothing “shushing” of skiiing. Is that still the case? I don’t hear any music. I’ve been to Japan more recently, not skiing, and it was awesome. Beautiful, clean, kind people. A lot more people speak pretty good English.

CAMPAIIII Vallons! Great vid thinking of spending Jan and feb their next year. Where would you go for an extended trip?

@christopheblanchi4777 2 месяца назад

Excellent review. After this year's sad ski weather and snow fall in Europe, skiing in Japan is looking really appealing. You have put Japan squarely on my list of must ski areas.

@Atomb 2 месяца назад

Yes. I will never forget my trip to Japan and I would recommend everyone goes there to ski once in their life.

@marksugimoto7439 2 месяца назад

I was in Hakuba for the week in Feb and it was great !! the price for the lift cant be beat. I live in Cali and the price is off the chart. if you have the change Japan ski/boarding is a must !! Great video, keep it up

@shingo74 2 месяца назад

Enjoyed this video - a fair assessment - but I noticed that you mentioned the word onsen once briefly at the very end. Onsens are another reason to ski in Japan !

@chuzzwade288 2 месяца назад

Wow. I’m an ageing British snowboarder that is now lucky to spend one week a season shredding. I love your vlogs, good humour, great content and very well edited. Nice! I’ve just sold my Anon M4s as they are shit and far too expensive! I need goggles for next season 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

@miam4u 2 месяца назад

Great video, I skied a few places in Japan in my 4 years there. I would add one point that if you ski volcanos, the slopes are often steep higher up and flatter lower down. That, coupled with the lower vertical drop compared to Europe orthe US, meant the demanding skiing was quite limited. Lots of fun still to be had though.

@halloweenhopes7427 Месяц назад

I liked this video, still, it could be even better if you keep the summary and written comments longer so we don't have to rewind and pause. Thank you.

@Liitti 2 месяца назад

I was quite surprised about the prices for Europe season passes, thought they would be less. I'm happy with my season pass for my semi local ski resort (Sappee) costing only 140e from preseason sale. Bought it last season and also now have bought it for the upcoming season. Sappee ain't a big mountain or anything but southern Finland doesn't have that big ski resorts to begin with because its very flat. Japan is on my bucket list for places to visit for sure and now maybe even more. Great video altogether!

@jenniferbutcher759 2 месяца назад

Excellent video, super helpful as a group of us Skiwis are looking to go to Japan in Jan or Feb next year. If we go to Hakuba, would you recommend the last 2 weeks of Jan or the last 2 weeks of February for best snow conditions. We want to avoid the Chinese New Year crowds too…

@TheSlipperySlope 2 месяца назад

Definitely January. Late February is already too warm, especially if you go to Honshu.
