About Me 

Graduate of University of Florida with a BA in Japanese language and literature.  I work in Japan as an English teacher for now.  Teach mostly middle school level students .  Originally from New York (east coast snowboarders word up)  but then moved to Florida and got into surfing hardcore.  Carving in the water, mountains, and on land is my thing.  Im crazy what can i say. 

Words of Wisdom 

-"Katte kabuto no himo o shimeyo" 
This means to never give up even if you fail once.
The literal translation would be something like : "Be victorious, fasten your battle helmet one more time"

-Surfing is the source, it will change your life.

My Blog: Monday, March 06, 2006
I took the overnight bus to Takasu snow park in Gifu-ken this past Friday....it was the best session I have had this entire season.  I woke up on the bus in the parking lot at 4:30 am as the snow was falling like mad.  7 olock we jumped out of the bus into shin high powder and ran to the locker room to change and get ready. 

Took a gondola to the tippy top and nothing but long long ass powder rides all the way down.  Felt so good.   Then the park opened up and so began the insanity.  3 half pipes , a huge selection of kickers, table tops and rails to choose from I went off this day... majorly.   I finally managed to do some really smooth and stylish 360s  which I am quite happy about.    Although i had a gnarly face plant which caused my mouth to bleed quite a bit.  I was stoked  and on an overdrive  rush of adrenalyne.   I will go one more time to this place on the 21st and that will end the season here unless i end up going to Hokkaido in April...which there is a good chance I just may do it.

How's teaching going?  I'm teaching ESL stateside at a couple community colleges, but I'm tempted to get back to Japan. (lived there a year and have made many repeat-offender visits.  )

Have fun over there - I went back to Hokkaido in December for three weeks with the better half to visit the in-laws, and I miss the place already.

Hey there! that's soo cool that you live in Japan! I was looking at the resorts list in goski.com and they have soo many! So my friends and I were talking about going there sometime. How expensive it is in comparison to American resorts. We just came back from if not the most expensive in the States: Vail so maybe we can compare it to that one.

Thanks for any info.
