Whilst I realise most of NS may not be able to help me, I remember that there are some Chilean nsers, and maybe some of the SAS campers might have an idea as well. And yes I would have put it in regionals, but there doesn't appear to be a SA one! Anyway, I quite want to go instruct in South...

So when I left the States a few years ago, I left my Rossi Steezes with a friend of mine to look after them for next season, unfortunately I couldn't go back for visa reasons. I tryed to get him to post them to me, but he was rubbish at emailing back. This went on for over a year. Now this...

So this girl who I don't know emailed me about something, I thought I recognised the name so searched her address in FB, then instead of search, I somehow hit 'invite to facebook'. So basically I now appear to be some sort of weird Facebook stalker, which to some extent I guess I am! I don't...

He's a sick skier and I'm sure Samsung is a great sponsor, but are that many shots of him taking photos of himself really necessary?

I am pretty sure he means the north/south divide in the UK, we in the south speak properly, whilst those in the north generally sound ridiculous and are pretty much incomprehensible. I am currently surrounded by Aussies (in Japan, WTF?) and I have to say I am not finding their accent nearly as...

Best in one go was 340 for teaching a family for a few half days. I would wonder what I did wrong in a private if I didn't get tipped. In group lessons, especially kids, it's pretty much a lottery. I have been hungover and taught badly and got tipped well, and taught the best lesson ever and got...

Haha, excellent choice of name, love it!

Just got some of this years movies in the post and am getting so amped. Was really happy when I saw the first segment of Reasons was filmed in Niseko as I am heading there for the winter in 3 days. I really can't quite communicate how excited I am. I am liking the whole 'reasons' vibe as well...

I am in Niseko from late Nov to the end of season, can't wait!! Just been watching all the ski movies with Japan in that I could find and am so stoked.

I'd worry about DYING! Cool stuff though.

I have been standing up very straight and looking at landings in a manner that would suggest I was agressively questioning their physical toughness ever since I read this and I think I have become at least %14 more unapproachable and intimidating! Thanks R_Martin!

I just heard my visa isn't going to work out, so no WP for me this year, going to miss it :(

I'm just applying for ski instructing jobs now, I'm probably going to be in Niseko, but I am also really liking the look of Hakuba. I'm going because I didn't get my visa for the states this year, so was pissed to start with, but I'm actually getting stoked on it right now, the snow looks...

They really should split you guys into levels and make sure you have a level 3/park qualified instructor anyway. In the past I've got given the highest level groups over more higher qualified (ie level 3) instructors because I have a park and pipe coaches cert. I actually just applied for a job...

I had a foot massage in China and they let us smoke a few joints whilst they did it, it was absolutely amazing. I can see how a head massage would be nuts.

Did you know that 'The Great Global Warming Conspiracy' was recently subject to a ruling by Ofcom (British communications regulator)? It concluded that many of the people involved in the documentary (IPCC and some independant researchers) were misrepresented. Though in the eyes of many people...

Er, why? Given that people are doing studies about using it to treat brain cancer what evidence do you have to the contrary?

That's amazing, I actually just laughed so hard I cried a little bit.

Ahahaha, you crazy Americans! From the Guardian online Flint, Michigan's police chief isn't backing down from his crackdown on saggy pants. The American Civil Liberties Union said last week that today would be the deadline for chief David Dicks to halt the stopping and searching of...

Ah! Well, guess I was a bit late on this idea then!
