Sorry Gary...coming soon!

“Gary, are you dressed for bed?” “I don’t want to funk you, Gary” “Sorry, Gary” Almost like a sick April Fool’s joke, YouTube has gone down on me on the one day I finally get round to uploading a new Fancy That Production. So I’m afraid it’ll be just one more day before you see the likes of those characters...

Ohau great it was to be back again

A winter season just wouldn't be complete without a roadtrip down to Ohau. With Alan Davis at the wheel, we set off after work on Friday, compulsory Maccas stop then into the darkness. So dark actually that we missed the turn for the mountains. Finally rocked up at Ohau lodge just before 10pm. No...

Sapporo Kokusai - now that's what I call powder!

Where are we? Ah yes, 3 months to the day that I got back from Japan and still some unfinished business. Last day's riding [:'(] and it was off to Sapporo Kokusai . Stepping out of the hotel in the city, Arrun Dayris all over us, but oh, who's this? Mr Grande Schnitzel Dumpy has shat all...

Kamui we love you

I think it's almost 2 months since we got back now, so probably about time for another story from Japan. So, last time we were off in Furano eating Pork Rectum . Ah yes. Up early and back on the bus, but look at the state of Arun Dayris this morning. Oh, that's him on the left, the other one...

On the run in Furano

Oh my dear boys, wake up, wake up! It's bluebird out there! So there we were, into the world's smallest one-piece bathroom, down to the 1970s breakfast room and out into the cold. Guten Morgen Furano! Bit of a leg-burner on the massive wide open pistes at first as without any new neige, things...

Rusutsu

No no no, it can't be time to get up already?! Yep, 6:30am and these brothers were up, off the futons, chuck everything in the board bags, nail some breakfast and out the door. Of course we left behind the GnarlyBoarders calling card, nice big sticker up on the wall. Think Jamroll may have got the...

Japow here we come!!!

Hard to believe the day has finally come. Sloth and Jarmarl are ready, primed and going to farm out the deep white stuff! Be ready for some stories of the chaos in Tokyo (Sushi, Sumo Stables, Karaoke and Sake. All with some Fancy That thrown in of course!). Then on Tuesday night we're off to Hokkaido...

Last day of the season - Ohau

10 hours sleep sorted us right out, and what an awesome start to the day. Perfect bluebird, no wind, great breakfast overlooking Lake Ohau. Here we are, loving it: Snow was just softening up once we got up the mountain, damn warm already, almost a no jacket day. Took SJ up and got her cruising round...

Back to Ohau: The Last Roadtrip

With the winter season rapidly disappearing and spring farming on in everywhere, it was time for one last roadtrip. Where better to go, than Ohau? They've had consistently good conditions, better than most places, forecast was for bluebird, no wind, and there'd been 40cm or so of fresh earlier...
