Yup, first trip to Biwako this year... was a weekday, Kubik was good enough to come along (thanks man!).... Excellent weather, not so cold, not so much wind, clear skies and sunny for most of the day... nice beautiful conditions to snowboard down the slopes... and practice ground tricks... bad day for jumps.... runs were nice BUT hard... The guys beside me in the bus even broke his arm (reminds me how dangerous this sport is! ).... snow was mainly icy and sharp... Managed to do like 20-30 runs that day... and one major fall that kept me on the ground lying for a good 10 minutes.. hahaha.... Even bumped in to a monkey and a pooh on mini-skis... ... don't believe me? check out the pics...
