Its That Time Of The Year Again, I'm Excited :)! - Work Warning


Recommended Posts

I did a season in Falls Creek last year and just turned down another due to "having to come back to the real world". I have a feeling the season will be average again this year anyway, but i might hit up NZ in August anyway. As mentioned above Japan is the place to go, amazing powder and hot springs with cool little monkeys!!

Anyway if anyone is planning/going up i will be in for sure. I'm also a ski instructor so anyone who cant ski, i can give you some basic tips and exercises so you can at least do the green runs!

Also if you can buy gear in the US DO IT! The market over there is huge and all the prices are really good!

You're an instructor? :P:worship::worship:

There is an old joke that goes around the mountains...

How can you tell that someone is a ski(or snowboard) instructor?

They tell you the first time they meet you :worship:

ohhh and i was a snowboard instructor for a few years in the states :worship: but if you think i'm gonna hang around teaching you lot all day, your dreaming :P

Ok now someone can start organising one, most of us are so hype up now :(,

Andrew can teach us during the day lol, :P

Ash can cook BBQ for lunch :worship:

Mav will entertain everyone at night as long as there is a pole ROFL :laughing-smiley-014:

Me running for cover :worship:

I'm so in for any trip snowboarding anywhere.. yes JApan is the place to go I had a trip booked for last year until I broke my leg was going to cost me $1700 for 9 days.. thats skiing and flights.. u can get accom over there in these little bungalow things basically liek a backpackers lodge just below the mountains and it equates to around 30bucks for a week.

Japan has the longest runs and longest lifts in the world and damn I was disappointed not to go..

But... NEw Zealand does have a great atmosphere and the powder after a light fall is unbelievable..

Damn you for getting me thinking I should buy new gear.. lol oh well out with last years gear in with some new...

    • I downloaded the apps (for windows) and Consult 1 doesn't have this function on it for the Consult 1 plug which I'm pretty sure all Skylines have. You would think someone would have a workaround after 30 years for all Skylines which have ABS.
    • Also, I don't know the actual ABS system on the skylines, but a sneaky thing could be a piece of electronic equipment that makes the ABS think you're moving, and then same piece can send a signal for a locked up tyre... Activate ABS without slamming brakes...
    • The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.
    • Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
    • Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using.
