So I'm shredding japan right now, blogging about it to. Check it out! http://www.looped.no

Obviously I'm just looking to get more hits on the blog, but I thought some of you might find it interesting. It's pretty cool over here, we'e hitting up most of the spots from believe, reasons, nimbus etc.. and the snow is pretty much just like they describe it in the movies

Well, you've got to take in to consideration that we'e traveling from Tromsø, which is waay north i Norway so it's hella expensive. I think it's around 5500 for each of us, ecerything added together except food.

i clicked on your thread, hoping you cared enough to post some kind of TR on here about your trip to japan then maybe a link to a blog. you seriously let me down, and you are wasting NS.com bandwidth for the promotion of yourself.

do us all a favor and at least link a few photos and tell a little story before you link your blog.

I'm sorry I can't be bothered writing shit twice. If it matters that much to you you're welcome to copy paste everything I've written in the blog and make a new post here. I didn't think that one more mouse click to my (non-comercial, totally unserious) blog would be too much of a hassle, I realize that some people have bad clicking stamina, and if you wanna help those people put feel free to copy paste :-)

And how is this promoting? I want to tell people a story, I hardly see how I benefit from them reading it on the blog (which again has: no ads, no sponsorships, no nothing) which I can update easily compared to writing new posts here? I figured now that I've shown people the blog they can follow it if they want to. I also realize there's a blog function on here, but it seemed like you had to be "a featured blogger" to use it.
What do you think people should post on here? Countless discussions on who's got taller tall tees and who is afterbangs harder get boring after a while, but that might just be me that's weird that way.

if it matters that much to you....copy some shit from when you write the blog then paste it here with photos and some stuff, its called a TR (trip report) or RR (resort report) its the idea of using anothers site to promote your own.

 you cant be bothered writing shit twice, but, it seems like you have no problem writing lengthy responses having nothing to do with your skiing , so in that same amount of time i think you could have linked a few photos and told some kind of story to NS.

Im not copying and pasting shit because im not going on the blog, unless you actually show ns some love.

i dont want to see posts about tall tees as much as you, thats why you and i need to post TRs of fun things we do on here and not just links to our blogs.

SASS is running trips to Japan this year. And much like your TR, the trips do not suck.

We hooked up with BD Lodge and it is sick. I highly recommend that everyone go. Especially since plane tix are so cheap right now.

22 days till I'm there but I'm staying in Hakuba so probably won't get to Niseko this year. It's my first time skiing Japan and I am so stoked to be going!
